Liverpool-linked star Florian Wirtz may have scored Germany’s only goal tonight, but it was Bruno Fernandes who truly lit up the stage. The Manchester United captain delivered a masterclass in the second half, inspiring Portugal to a dramatic 2-1 comeback win and securing their place in the UEFA Nations League Final.
While Wirtz showcased his undeniable talent with a well-taken goal, he was visibly in awe of Fernandes’ commanding performance—an eye-opening moment for the young Bayer Leverkusen playmaker, who continues to attract interest from Premier League clubs, including Liverpool.
If Wirtz does make the move to England this summer, tonight may have given him a glimpse of the level of brilliance and leadership he’ll be expected to match in the Premier League. Bruno’s performance was a reminder of the high bar set by the league’s elite midfielders—and the kind of influence Wirtz will need to deliver if he hopes to thrive on English soil.
One thing is clear: Wirtz is watching. And learning.
