LISBON, Portugal (AFP)—Joao Felix scored the only goal with a long-range shot as reigning Nations League champions Portugal opened their campaign with a 1-0 home win over Wales.

“We scored one, and we didn’t concede,” Portugal’s Bruno Fernandes told the BBC. “That’s the big thing.”

Portugal have won two of the four finals since the competition was launched in 2018 but lost in the round of 16 to Spain at the World Cup in July.
