At 0:00 on June 23, the second round of Group F of the European Championship will see Turkey face Portugal. Portugal forward Leo attended the pre-match press conference and talked about the opponent he considered the most difficult in this game, Çalhanoğlu.
Leo said: “This is an important game, the opponent is a very good team, we can’t give them too much space. I think Çalhanoğlu will play an important role in the game, I know him well, we are club teammates, he has excellent skills. İrfan Can Kahveci also has great speed, they can all play an important role in the team.”
“I think this will be a completely different game than the Czech Republic, but we will fight for victory. Anyway, we also have many strong young players, our team is very strong.”
Speaking of the last game, Leo said: “I think I played well in the first half. I wasn’t in good shape in the second half. My teammates brought a lot of energy, I don’t know if I can perform well against Turkey, but I’m ready to play.”
After the first round, Portugal defeated the Czech Republic, and Turkey defeated Georgia. Both teams have 3 points.
