#MUFCMundial: Portugal
As Portugal prepare to take on Uruguay in the last 16 of the World Cup, Manchester United fan Nuno Marmeleiro tells us why he’s supporting the Euro 2016 winners in Russia and why he loves a certain former Red…
Which country are you representing and why?
Portugal, because I’m from Portugal, I love football and I play it. We also have the best player in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo, who played in the best team in the world. We’ve recently signed Diogo Dalot, who I think will be one of the best right-backs in the world.
How would you sum up your feelings about the World Cup using emojis only?
⚽️ 🌍 ♥️ 👌
Have you ever been to Old Trafford?
No, but I’m trying to plan a trip to Manchester and England and, of course, visiting Old Trafford.
Cristiano Ronaldo being back home would be amazing! He did a lot of fantastic things in the Premier League and I think he can do more.
Which United star do you think will shine brightest during the World Cup?
Romelu Lukaku. Belgium are a fantastic team with a fantastic striker, so Lukaku can shine very easily.
GET INVOLVED!
As the World Cup continues, we are looking for a United fan to represent each of the 32 nations competing in Russia.
