2026 World Cup: Luís Montenegro Heads to Toronto for Portugal vs. Croatia Clash

Prime Minister Luís Montenegro is set to attend the 2026 World Cup Round of 16 match between the National Team and Croatia. The game will take place in the early hours of Friday morning in Toronto, Canada, at BMO Field. Portugal secured their spot in this stage of the competition by finishing second in Group K, behind Colombia.

This won't be the first time Luís Montenegro has supported the national team at this World Cup. The Prime Minister previously traveled to Houston, USA, to watch the second group stage match, where Portugal thrashed Uzbekistan 5-0.

Other high-ranking state officials have also accompanied the Portuguese squad in the United States. The President of the Assembly of the Republic, José Pedro Aguiar-Branco, was present for Portugal's opening World Cup 2026 match against DR Congo, which ended in a 1-1 draw, also held in Houston. Meanwhile, the President of the Republic, António José Seguro, attended the national team's third game against Colombia, which finished in a goalless draw in Miami, also in the United States.
