On Sunday, Bruno Fernandes scored a beautiful goal from the far part of the box to put Portugal ahead of Iceland. Fernandes plays for Manchester United.

Iceland and Portugal were tied at 0-0 with just under ten minutes left in the first half of their Euro 2024 qualifying match. But Fernandes scored a brilliant goal to break the tie.

He controlled a back-heel pass from Bernardo Silva in front of him and then fired a great shot that went into the far corner of the net. Even though Iceland’s goalie Hakon Valdimarsson dove full-stretch, he was unable to get to the ball.

Portugal was already sure to go to the European Championship next summer because they won all nine games in Group J. Fernandes has now scored six goals and set up seven others in qualifying games. He seems to be saving his best games for the international stage.

The 29-year-old player has been criticized for his play at Manchester United this season, as Erik ten Hag’s team has fallen far behind in the Premier League. Fans will hope that he can bring his good form for Portugal back to his club before the busy holiday season.

Fernandes is expected to start again for Ten Hag’s team when United play Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday. When they get back, the Red Devils will play Galatasaray in the Champions League, which they have to win.
