Portugal's last match in the UEFA Nations League was a draw against France in which they had the incredible duel between Cristiano Ronaldo and Mbapee. Now Cristiano Ronaldo was confirmed as positive for Covid and had to be isolated from the rest of the Portuguese team. The entire Portugal team must be tested prior to their match against Sweden.

Cristiano Ronaldo had been, as always, the figure of the Portugal team but now he had to be isolated and will not be able to play the game against Sweden for a new round of the Nations League. His replacement for the moment will be the Barcelona Trincao player but we will have to wait for the tests of all the players.

The fear from the Portugal team is that Cristiano Ronaldo has infected more than one player and they run the risk of not having a team competitive enough to face Sweden. At the moment only Cristiano Ronaldo was confirmed to have the virus but they await the tests of the other players.

For its part, the alarm was also set off in the French team since it was the last team to face Cristiano Ronaldo. After that game, Mbappe could be seen taking photos of the Juventus player hugging him. At the moment the France team has not confirmed any positive covid case.
