Operation Desert Suck
By: Greg | June 6th, 2007
Okay, it was mostly a B squad. Deco says it was hell hot. But that is NO excuse to TIE a third place club team from Kuwait. Either play and treat it like a tune up or don’t play it all. Portugal played like Brazil has been playing lately in friendlies. In case you were wondering, that’s not a compliment. I will now give you my leave and the video below of a horrific game… The opportunity cost of wasting any more time on this is just way too great.

That was the worst game I’ve seen from Portugal in quite a while.
I was actually even embarassed!
No use mulling over it though. Let’s just move on.Posted from

Yes… It was a poor match… Quite poor…
BUT…
It yielded 500000 US$ to the FPF, it made them play at 40 degrees Celsius at night (sort of pre-practice for the qualifier against Armenia, where it’ll also be hot under the shade, and who beat table leader Poland)…
And… Did anybody notice all the new guys…? Bosingwa (FC Porto’s right-back) looked to me light-years better than Miguel and Duda (playing in Sevilla, but virtually unknown to many in PT) showed more than many would expect.
Antunes, the left-back kid from Pacos de Ferreira (word is Sporting Lisbon is after him, after Rodrigo Tello’s disappearing act) got his first time, for the ever critic left-back, in the PT squad… My guess is Paulo Ferreira won’t play on PT’s right side soon…
