Portugal gets a disappointing defeat against Switzerland in the UEFA Nations League on Sunday, 12th June. Portugal scored no goal in the game and conceded in the very first minute. Switzerland’s striker Haris Seferovic scored the first and the last goal of the game in the very first minute. The referee blew the whistle to start the game and a minute later Switzerland was leading Portugal.

Portugal national football team captain Cristiano Ronaldo wasn’t playing in this game against Switzerland as he was released from the squad before this game. The fans believed they didn’t have the greatest goalscorer (Cristiano Ronaldo) in their team (Portugal) and thus they lost the game and couldn’t score even a single goal. Even after taking 20 shots on Switzerland’s goal Portugal ended up on the losing side.
