Comments on: Operation Desert Suck http://portugal.theoffside.com/euro/operation-desert-suck.html News from the Portuguese Football Liga Fri, 31 Oct 2008 18:51:29 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Pedro P http://portugal.theoffside.com/euro/operation-desert-suck.html#comment-1587 Pedro P Mon, 11 Jun 2007 09:22:35 +0000 http://portugal.theoffside.com/euro/operation-desert-suck.html#comment-1587 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... ;-) Yes… It was a poor match… Quite poor…

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