Wales fell to an opening 1-0 Nations League defeat to Portugal as Cristiano Ronaldo drew a blank in Lisbon.

Portugal secured a 1-0 victory over Wales in their UEFA Nations League Group A4 opener at the Estadio Jose Alvalade in Lisbon. Joao Felix scored the decisive goal in the 22nd minute when his shot took a deflection off Welsh defender Ben Davies. The match marked the first game in charge for Portugal manager Jorge Jesus.
Cristiano Ronaldo earned his 234th international cap but experienced a frustrating evening, failing to score from seven attempts before being substituted in the 67th minute. A second-half goal by Ronaldo was disallowed for offside following a VAR review, while Craig Bellamy's Wales side managed only five shots compared to Portugal's 22.
