Portugal, which enters the competition for Euro 2024 this Tuesday, has already been European champion in the past.
Opposed to the Czech Republic, Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal closes the first day of the Euro group stage this Tuesday evening. A test that the Lusitanians have already had the chance to win.
The Seleçao is one of the many selections that have been crowned once in this tournament. It was four years ago during the edition held in France.
The Seleçao has already conquered Europe
The team led by Fernando Santos then created a sensation by knocking out the Blues at home at the Stade de France. Eder scored the only goal of the match in the middle of extra time.
This coronation is even the only one in the history of Portugal at senior level. They had also experienced triumphs, but it was among young people, notably with two Junior World Cups won in the early 90s.

On July 10, 2016, the Portuguese climbed to the roof of Europe with his selection.
France often on the road to Portugal
Portugal also played in another Euro final. It was in 2004. Unfortunately for CR7 and company, things went a little less well. Despite the home advantage, they lost 0-1 to Greece.
Finally, note that Portugal also lost twice in the semi-finals. Each time it was against the future French winner (1984 and 2000). If this poster is repeated this year, the DD gang could see it as a sign of destiny.
