Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has insisted that winning with Portugal is “different” after he and his fellow countrymen triumphed over Spain in the Nations League final on Sunday

Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo was in tears as he led his country to their second Nations League title by beating holders Spain 5-3 on penalties following a thrilling 2-2 draw after extra time in Sunday's showpiece match.

Spain has actually been the most consistent country through the first three editions of the Nations League. Though they missed out on the championship match in 2019, La Roja advanced to the final in 2021 and 2023, losing to France four years ago before defeating Croatia to win the third UNL title.
