Storms raging in Orlando forced the delayed kick-off of England's final World Cup warm-up friendly against Costa Rica, with the Three Lions' match going ahead an hour later than scheduled. The extreme weather threatened to disrupt preparations just days before the tournament begins across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Meanwhile, Portugal face Nigeria on Wednesday at 8.45pm in Leiria's Estádio Dr. Magalhães Pessoa, with a portion of ticket proceeds going to local businesses affected by Storm Kristin. Head coach Roberto Martínez has a fully fit 26-man squad, including Matheus Nunes who has recovered from gastroenteritis, while Paris Saint-Germain's Nuno Mendes and Gonçalo Ramos are available. Nigeria, who failed to qualify for the World Cup, are without Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman, with Moses Simon and Rafiu Durosinmi leading the line. The two sides have met only once before, a 4-0 Portugal win in November 2022.
