The next Corona case at the European Football Championship in 2021: Germany's highly regarded group opponent Portugal has to do without a service provider for the time being.
Lisbon - Portugal defender João Cancelo tested positive for the corona virus shortly before the EM * debut of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo's team against Hungary on Tuesday.
The 27-year-old, who is under contract with the Premier League club Manchester City, coached by Pep Guardiola, is doing well and has gone into isolation in Budapest, said the Portuguese football association FPF on Sunday.
Cancelo had been planned as a top performer on the right defensive side.
For him, U21 national player Diogo Dalot (22) from AC Milan moves up.
Four days after the game against Hungary, Germany are opponents of the "Seleção" in Munich (6:00 pm).
