Portugal winger Nani
could not hide his delight after the 5-0 thrashing of Gibraltar in the absence
of captain Ronaldo.
The Real Madrid
forward has not featured for his country since limping off in the Euro 2016
final, Renato Sanches was also unavailable.
However, after
scoring twice himself, Nani insisted he and his team mates have again shown
they can still perform when their star men are missing.
“I am very pleased
with the team performance,” he said. “I think we did a good job but we are
aware that the next game [a World Cup qualifier against Switzerland] will be
much more difficult and certainly we will have to give much more.
“We have shown that
we have a strong team, a team that is confident.
“Of course,
Cristiano Ronaldo and Renato Sanches are very important but we have to adapt to
the absence of these players. We have players who are able to give a good
answer as I have demonstrated.”
