“I wanted to support my country.

I have thought a lot about this and I am afraid of this situation.

The club supports me, they spoke to me and wanted to do everything to help me.

Entering the game in the 62nd minute when Benfica was trailing 2 goals to 1, the international equalized ten minutes later with a header.
