André Silva starred tonight at the Estadio Da Luz in Lisbon, where the European champions were on show in the UEFA Nations League. With the Sevilla forward starting in attack, as he did in the friendly against Croatia, Fernando Santos' squad saw Silva's goal give them their first win in the recently inaugurated tournament. He now has 13 goals in 18 caps.

Midway through the second half, Bruma broke away with the ball before laying it off to Silva, who controlled with the outside of the foot before firing an unstoppable shot with his left foot past Donnarumma. The forward played 90 minutes and returns to Sevilla to join up with the squad after a job well done.

The other Sevilla player who could have been in action was Tomas Vaclík, who remained on the bench during the Czech Republic's heavy 5-1 defeat to Russia in Rostov, one of the friendlies on that day.
