    That has been a knock on the Portuguese fans in the past.. they do not come off as passionate as they probably should and are generally rather quiet. Portugal NT games have become a family event, and thus, when looking in the stands, you see alot of families/couples/etc.

    Glad the fans performed the way they did, and hope it carries over to the WC.

    Great game. Portugal were the better side for most of the game deserved winners. Ricardinho -the best in the world, goes out with an injury and we win late in extra time a la the other European Champions. Fitting.

    Holy crap - that was so close. Spain's PK to take a 3-1 lead near the end of the game rattles off the crossbar and out miraculously - then Portugal ties the game in the last minute of regulation. Then in the extra time Spain hits the post off the post once before Portugal's goal and then just 10 seconds before the end of the game (great save by keeper too). Crazy intense game. Amazing that Portugal finally vanquished their boogie man Spain here and Ricardinho finally gets his national big tourney trophy to go with his individual accolades - even though he couldn't finish the big game injured. It's like Ronaldo and Portugal's Euro '16 cup all over again!!
