Diogo Jota appeared on the bench for already qualified Portugal as they concluded their Euro 2024 group stage with a 2-0 defeat against Georgia on Wednesday night.
The striker came on in the 75th minute for the Group F winners, who were beaten by goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Georges Mikautadze in Gelsenkirchen.
Elsewhere in the group, Vitezslav Jaros was unused in the Czech Republic’s 2-1 defeat against Turkey, which confirmed their elimination.
The results also meant that Hungary’s Dominik Szoboszlai did not qualify for the round of 16 as one of the four best third-placed teams.
Jota will be one of seven Liverpool players involved in the last 16, alongside Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez, Virgil van Dijk, Cody Gakpo, Ryan Gravenberch and Ibrahima Konate.
