Portugal soccer had become famous by the new millennium, thanks to the immaculate resurgence seen due to the stars Luis Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo. Now, kids enjoy playing Portugal teams on FIFA soccer video-games on the Xbox an Playstation.



The 1960s saw the first great tide in excellence in Portugal national soccer when the gifted and offbeat potent striker with tough speed, Eusebio, led his country to third place and scored the most goals in the World Cup 1966, earning him the Bronze Ball award!



Many consider Eusebio to be one of the greatest of all time, alongside greats like Maradona, Pele, Cruyff, Beckham, and Totti. Eusebio had a way of commandeering speed and strength on the field that made him nearly impossible to catch.



Then, Portugal sadly dropped off the map in world soccer competition. However, in the late 20th Century, the emergence of the star Luis Figo would see the Portugal national team once again bring pride and glory to the small country in Europe. Figo led his club teams to greatness including Real Madrid and then the Portugal national team. Once more, people remembered the glory days of Eusebio.



Figo wasn't the last star in this new generation. His protege Ronaldo slowly but swiftly became a superstar and helped his own club teams including Real Madrid and the national team reach great heights. The 1-2 punch of Figo-Ronaldo forever stamped in the minds of soccer fans the starlight fortunes of Portgual.



The matchup between favorites Spain and Portugal in the 2010 World Cup was highly touted and written about, and unfortunately, for Ronaldo's Portugal team, Spain proved to be too solid and eeked out a victory. Nevertheless, this tense matchup clarified in the hearts of fans that Portugal would always hold a special place in the imagination of soccer.



Who's the greatest to date? Eusebio? Figo? Ronaldo? Who knows?



It's the fans of world soccer that make the sport so darn fun. They really energize the stadiums they play in and remind everyone that soccer is a world sport that combines both swiftness and great human vitality!



I've been a Portgual soccer fan for years and also enjoy playing their sides on FIFA soccer video-games, matching them up with Spain and the Netherlands. I consider Luis Figo to be one of the greats in soccer history, and I enjoy writing about the sheer thievery and elegant strength required in team soccer, making this fella a real Portugal soccer fan. Watching games on YouTube makes the quarantine experience much more metaphysical! I'm a fan.



No, I'm not from Portugal. I'm from Asia. I'm an Indian by birth but I'm a US citizen and cheered on college soccer teams. I'll always think of the golden history of Portugal soccer as a designed testament to the human flowery linked to competitive diaries.
