    Re: Portugal & Saudi Arabia friendly

    fpf.pt states a game is to be played on that date, but there is no team listed as of yet - i guess there's a good chance it could be saudia arabia, especially if it's on the fifa site

    Very interesting, I've been wanting to see how Portugal would fair vs a middle eastern team.

    Wait a minute Saudi's wear all Green! So clever ass Nike will debut the all red Portugal kits having people believe that we aren't wearing green shorts just out of respect for our hosts.

    I smell conspiracy by the FPF.

    Re: Portugal & Saudi Arabia friendly

    Why are we going to play in Saudi Arabia? A good preparation for both would be on european soil considering that the WC is going to be held in Germany.
    Hmm...wasn't in their capital that the portuguese U-21 won their first title of world champions?

    Re: Portugal & Saudi Arabia friendly

    I don't know why the FPF shrouds the adversaries of friendlies in such secrecy. Why not let everyone know who they're facing against ahead of time instead of making us all play a guessing game?

    Re: Portugal & Saudi Arabia friendly

    Yes, that is why I posted. It's been in our media that we will play Tunisia on the March date.

    Also note that he posted this just a few days ago: "Fifa has confirmed a friendly match between Saudi Arabia & Serbia Montnegro in 1-3-2006"

    it is confirmed

    Portugal will play their first warm up match against Saudi Arabia on march 1st , the match will be played on German soil, i think the city of Dusseldorf ??

    i think this match will benefit both sides, especially Portugal will face Iran another west asian team in the finals, Saudi will surely get a lot of benefit from a strong team like portugal to get enough stregth to play Spain in the finals

    good luck for both sides
    my opinion ; Portugal 5-0 Saudi Arabia

    thank you

    Re: Saudi Arabia & Portugal friendly

    saudi arabia 1-1 Greece

    friendly match.

    Zagorakis scored for Greece.

    Oh I think in the Finland game we scored a goal 4-1 not 4-0 :cool: :rolleyes:
    Lets hope we never see that result again.

    Re: Saudi Arabia & Portugal friendly

    Im glad were playing a world cup calibre team in a friendly for once. Ive been following saudi arabia since wc94 and this is a better test for us than luxembourg, lichtenstien etc. We tend to not play that well in friendlies, but at least we can try out some younger players in that time (who knows, maybe almeida, moutinho, dare i say vaz te??)

    Re: Saudi Arabia & Portugal friendly

    I was there in that day...the only time I saw Portugal playing live......everytime people mention that game the only thing that comes across my mind is Frechaut running like a nuts trying to stop a finnish from crossing....and ends up tackling the commercial placard at a very high speed.....
