Portugal rounded off their preparation for the 2022 World Cup with a commanding 4-0 win over Nigeria in a friendly on Thursday.

Despite being without talisman Cristiano Ronaldo, the hosts took control of the game from the blast of the whistle.

Manchester United midfielder, Bruno Fernandes, scored twice in the first half as Portugal took a 2-0 lead.

Fernandes tapped in Diogo Dalot’s cross, before stroking a penalty past Francis Uzoho.
