Portugal will kick off its campaign with two matches in Houston and complete its group games, which also include Colombia, Uzbekistan, Jamaica, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in Miami. Cancun is home to one million people and is a major tourist destination. It is expected to receive two million tourists during the World Cup. FIFA is set to announce the base for the Portugal national team for the upcoming summer World Cup, hosted by the United States in partnership with Canada and Mexico. The base will be the Fairmont Mayakoba resort and the adjacent Mayakoba Stadium for training in the Mexican city of Cancun, even though Portugal will not play any of its matches in the country. If they advance past the group stage, the path to the final will continue with subsequent matches.
