Watched this game with my dad here in the US. It was the start of my following the national team before we had the Internet.
This team played with honor and were mighty lions in an exciting game as we were put to the sword late in extra time. The French just had a little more brilliance and that has been our history in big games against the French.
This Portuguese played like a true Portuguese team with free flowing counter attacking and quick passing something that I think this current team lacks. This current team may by today's standard be faster and strong along with a better finisher in CR but lacks the creativity and fluild play of this team especially in midfield.
In the end this team brought joy to the people and showed that Portugal had teams that could compete.
