The Montenegrin youth national team was defeated by Portugal in the second round of the "Stevan Ćele Vilotić" memorial tournament. After a great fight, Portugal came out victorious with a score of 2:1.

Thiago Ferreira put his team ahead early in the second half, while Flavio Gonçalves doubled the lead from the penalty spot in the 80th minute. Matija Jovanović set up the final score five minutes later.

- We played much better than against Serbia in all segments of the game. This is the way we should play against strong teams like Portugal. First of all, our approach, attitude and engagement were at a much higher level than in the first match. Also, on the tactical level, we played very well. Unfortunately, we did not avoid defeat, but everything except the result was at a satisfactory level. We made several changes in the starting lineup compared to the first match, everyone got a chance and everyone responded to the task. We conceded goals from one foul and a penalty kick, then scored a goal and put pressure on, but we did not manage to avoid defeat, said coach Nenad Vukčević.

In the final round, our team will face Hungary. The match is scheduled for September 9th at 15 p.m.
