Portugal vs Algeria: Live stream, TV channel, team news and kick off time info for TONIGHT’S international friendly
PORTUGAL are expected to welcome back Cristiano Ronaldo for their final pre-World Cup warm-up friendly against Algeria tonight.
The game in Lisbon is the curtain-raiser to their Group B against Spain on June 15.
Ronaldo returned to training with the national team following a week off in Marbella with his family after Real Madrid's Champions League triumph and trophy-laden celebrations.
The mercurial forward stepped up his conditioning and fitness work at Portugal’s Cruz Quebrada-Dafundo base near the capitol.
Portugal, without Ronaldo, held Belgium to goalless draw on Saturday when the visitors have Roberto Martinez's men barely a sight of goal, with only Jan Vertonghen forcing Beto into anything approaching a save.
In direct contrast Joao Moutinho made Thibaut Courtois save from range, then Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva had an effort deflected just wide and Gelson Martins and Goncalo Guedes also both went close.
Algeria drew 2-2 with another World Cup hopeful missing their star player when they met Mo Salah-less Egypt on Sunday.
Two days earlier Leicester City's Riyad Mahrez started and Islam Slimani featured as Algeria suffered a shock 3-2 home defeat to Cape Verde.
