  "account": "Jürgen Klopp secured his maiden victory as Germany's coach, while Portugal triumphed without Cristiano Ronaldo in the Nations League on Thursday. Klopp's first triumph at the third attempt came in a 2-0 win against Serbia in Munich, with Florian Wirtz scoring both goals. The Netherlands and Greece shared a 2-2 draw in a Group A2 match, with Tijjani Reijnders netting the only goal for Greece. In another showdown, Portugal edged a 4-2 victory over Denmark in Copenhagen, with João Félix scoring the decisive goal. The absence of Ronaldo, who had stormed out of the team prior to the match, prompted speculation about his future with the Portuguese national side.",
