Portugal midfielder Bruno Fernandes admitted to making ‘a lot of mistakes’ during his team’s victory against Czech Republic at Euro 2024.
Fernandes played as Portugal secured a 2-1 win over Czech Republic on Tuesday night, with Francisco Conceicao scoring the winning goal in Leipzig.
Speaking in his post-match interview, Fernandes told reporters, “We made a lot of mistakes in the first half, especially me. Taking risks has two sides of the coin. I am aware of this. Midfielders take more risks. But once I can pass the ball, I have a lot of quality in front of me to score a goal. So, I’m not worried about making mistakes because it’s part of the game.”
Fernandes will aim to lead Portugal to another victory when they face Turkey in their next game on Saturday.
