Matchday 2 of the Qatar 2022 group stage is on the books, and it left a lot to be played for in the final round. Portugal have already secured a place in the round of 16 with their win over Uruguay, but Group H will be a zone to watch regardless.

The Portuguese national team is just one of the few teams that punched a ticket to the knockout stage on Matchday 2, along with France and Brazil. For most teams, things are still wide open ahead of the group finale.

La Celeste got off to a poor start to the competition, failing to break the deadlock against South Korea before their defeat to Portugal. Even so, this isn’t over for Diego Alonso’s men yet.
