“I am happy because, after 15 matches, we have finally won a game,” Peseiro said after the game.

“We have not won a friendly game in the last five years. We have had eight defeats and seven draws but today, the result was good.”

Up next for Peseiro’s men is the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification games vs Lesotho and Zimbabwe in November.
