Portugal Vs Armenia Live Score, FIFA World Cup European Qualifiers: POR 1-0 ARM; Veiga Hands Ronaldo-Less Hosts Lead

Portugal go ahead in the seventh minute! Renato Veiga is the one to head the ball into the bottom right corner and the Selecao are on their way. That would settle any nerves they may have had ahead of kick-off.

The national anthems are done and dusted, and the pivotal Group F fixture gets underway in Porto. Portugal kicking from right to left and Armenia the other way in the first half.

And here is Armenia's line-up:

Diogo Costa in goal and Bernardo Silva with the captain's armband. Check out Portugal's line-up:

The two other teams in fray in Group F, Hungary and Republic of Ireland, are facing off in a concurrent fixture and both are still in the running for qualification. Hungary are second in the table with eight points, while Ireland (7 points) are right behind. If Portugal do not win tonight, the door would be open for these two teams to try and overtake the group leaders and usurp the direct World Cup berth.

Cristiano Ronaldo was sent off for elbowing Ireland defender Dara O’Shea in the second half of a shock 2-0 defeat at Ireland. He likely faces a three-week wait to discover the length of his FIFA ban ahead of the 2026 World Cup. A one-game ban is mandatory and will be served today.

The match kicks off at 7:30pm IST. The Portugal vs Armenia, FIFA World Cup 2026 European Qualifiers, Group F game will be live streamed on the Sony LIV app and website in India. It will be telecast on the Sony Sports Ten 2 SD and HD TV channels in the country.
