USA vs Portugal Team News: Ronaldo and Defensive Shifts
The most significant headline from the Portuguese camp is the absence of captain Cristiano Ronaldo. The 41-year-old forward has been ruled out with a minor hamstring strain. Manager Roberto Martínez has opted to rest several other senior figures, including Bernardo Silva and Rúben Dias, to avoid injury risks ahead of the summer tournament.
For the United States, head coach Mauricio Pochettino is expected to experiment with his backline. Despite initial injury concerns, defender Chris Richards has reportedly made himself available. His inclusion could allow the U.S. to transition to a three-man defence, a system Pochettino has utilised previously to counter high-pressing European sides.
