Portugal and Ghana will play each other in the opening encounter of Group H on Thursday, November 24, 2022 at Stadium 974 in Doha.
The 37-year-old stated that the team must focus on winning their first game against Ghana, which he considered to be the "most difficult," while talking about Portugal's chances of winning the World Cup.
"I believe our national team has tremendous potential to win the World Cup. We will see. I believe we can. I have that hope, that belief," he began.
"But like these competitions always teach us; we must think calmly. We must think and focus on the first group game. We must think about the Ghana game which is the most difficult one.
"We must start well, gain some confidence and we will go from there," he said.
