Jorge Jesus: Everything we planned is reflected in the results

Portugal's manager Jorge Jesus shared his thoughts after his side's 2-1 victory over Norway in Group A4 of the Nations League.

“Everything we planned is reflected in the results. Norway have the best centre-forward in the world, while Ødegaard is one of the best attacking players – a complete team, very powerful and physically imposing. A side like this can only be beaten with a high level of technical quality.

“We won without producing the same performance as against Denmark, but the most important things were the victory and qualification. I had great belief in this team, but perhaps I did not expect us to win all four of our opening matches.”

Jesus also addressed the situation surrounding Cristiano Ronaldo.

“I don't know what will happen. For me, everything remains open. He has to make a decision before the next call-up. If he is playing regularly and wants to be part of the national team, he can return whenever he wants – why not?

“It was a misunderstanding and, in my opinion, it can be resolved easily. As far as I am concerned, everything is fine. When will the situation be resolved? I cannot say, we will see. The match has only just finished.”
