We hope to come out with a victory, ”said the Atlético de Madrid player in a statement to the Portuguese Football Federation.

«It can be a more open game and that is good for us. We know this, because we can take advantage of counterattacks. Serbia is a good team, they have good players and they will open up more than Azerbaijan. It can be an advantage for us not to find ourselves with such a closed team at the back, ”said João Félix, stressing that“ it was important to start well ”the qualifying phase for the World Cup.
