I don't think Portugal were ''lucky'' in 2016. They defended very well, Pepe had an amazing tournament, as did Guerreiro and Patricio. People say didn't win a game in 90, but didn't lose either and they controlled nearly every game. Nobody played an intense, fast tempo style against Portugal to unsettle the Danilo and Carvalho partnership back then. It's a glaring issue that's gone untested by opposition for ages, today we saw just how bad it is when exposed. No more please Santos. Time for a passing of the guard. God knows there are enough Portuguese managers out there to choose from.
