The Portuguese now spoke about this Oh Jogo: “It was a very, very difficult situation. I felt powerless because I couldn’t protect my family at that moment.”

When trying to push back one of the attackers, he hit and gave Cancelo a scar over his right eye, which he has left to this day: “I’ll have a scar here for the rest of my life. It was above all the feeling of powerlessness. Because I would put my face to my club – imagine what I would do for my family, which is the most important thing in my life.”

A day later, Cancelo played with City in an away game at Arsenal. The club posted security at their home and Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes was staying with Cancelo’s family.
