Hungary vs. Portugal Showdown: Your Complete Guide to Streaming the Crucial 2026 World Cup Qualifier

Throughout his legendary career, Cristiano Ronaldo has consistently demonstrated impeccable timing, and the superstar's knack for perfect moments was on display once more during Saturday evening's match.

Ronaldo struck in the 21st minute against Armenia to extend Portugal's advantage after João Félix had broken the deadlock. The number 21, notably, was the jersey worn by Diogo Jota for his country.

It marked an emotional yet triumphant beginning to their World Cup qualification journey, with their second fixture of the month scheduled in Budapest. A resilient Hungarian squad is expected to offer greater opposition than Armenia did, though they have never managed to defeat the Portuguese side.

Additionally, Marco Rossi is working to lead a Dominik Szoboszlai-led team to their first World Cup appearance since 1990. Portugal remain strong favorites to secure automatic qualification from Group F for next summer's competition, particularly after Hungary conceded a late equalizer to the Republic of Ireland in their opening match.

Here's your guide to watching Portugal's qualifier in Hungary's capital city.
