"Portugal is my favorite at the World Cup".
These words were spoken by Toral Bayramov, a 25-year-old defender of the Azerbaijan national team and Turkey's "Bursaspor" team, while talking about the World Cup.
He said he believes that Cristiano Ronaldo will lift the trophy, but according to him, this will not be easy.
T.Bayramov emphasized that he did not expect Turkey's defeat to Australia (0:2) in the first game.
"However, there are two more games ahead. I hope they can get out of the group and advance further in the tournament", he said in a statement to AZERTAC.
Note that the Portuguese national team will start the World Cup on June 17. The team will face Congo in the first match. The Turkish team will play their next match against Paraguay on June 20.
The World Cup, which is hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico, will end on July 19.
