Euro 2004 represents the last chance saloon for Portugal’s so-called ‘golden generation’.

Luis Figo, Fernando Couto, Rui Costa et al will probably be too old by the time of the next World Cup and with World Cup-winning coach Luiz Felipe Scolari onboard as well as the added bonus of home advantage, they’ll be hoping to go all the way.
