Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney has revealed that he wants England to defeat Portugal in Euro 2024 final.
According to Rooney, Portugal defeated England through penalty shootout in the 2006 Euros .
Speaking on The Overlap, Rooney, a former England striker, said:
“Just because of my experiences, I would say Portugal [as the team I want England to beat the most]. Broke me in 2004, I got sent off in 2006, and they beat us on penalties both times.
“I’d love to see England beat Portugal in the final [of Euro 2024].”
England have already won their first game 1-0 against Serbia, thanks to Jude Bellingham’s goal.
Portugal, meanwhile, will face Czech Republic in their first group game on Tuesday night.
