Bernardo Silva on Croatia Clash: "Favorites? I don't know, but..."

Portugal midfielder Bernardo Silva spoke at a press conference on Tuesday, just days before their Round of 16 clash with Croatia, scheduled for Thursday night (midnight Friday in Continental Portugal).

"We wanted to finish first in the group, we didn't manage it, but it's not the end of the world. We wanted to do better, but we're in good shape, we're ready. The game against Colombia was a big test; it's tough to play against these teams. Favorites? I don't know, but we approach them with respect and a desire to perform well," he stated.
