The Portugal supporters are growing impatient with the team as they prepare to face Switzerland in the Round of 16 on Tuesday.

Leao, who was Milan’s Serie A Player of the Year the previous year and has scored seven goals and dished out nine assists in 20 club appearances this campaign, is the obvious successor. This beautiful performance shows the optimism in Leao to give the same victory on the debut against Switzerland at knock out stage.

Now it’s up to the Portugal coach to decide his plan on who will be in the starting lineup for the Portugal national team either Christiano Ronaldo or Rafael Jeao.
