The Portuguese side earned a 2–1 victory thanks to goals from Pedro Neto and Francisco Conceição. Their performances helped Portugal finish its preparation campaign on a positive note.

Portugal enters the World Cup with high ambitions and hopes of winning the tournament for the first time in its history. The team combines experience, technical quality, and a talented generation of players capable of competing with the world's best national teams.

For Nigeria, despite the defeat, the match provided valuable experience and highlighted areas that can be improved before future international competitions.

As the World Cup approaches, Portugal appears determined to challenge for the title and add a historic achievement to its football legacy.
