The Portugese Team in unsuccessful period when Chalana and Rui Jordao already were at the end of his career and Luis Figo and Rui Costa were at the very start....
@@Pulcius-dh1uh Portugal remember this as the Saltillo Affair. The players refused to train, because they saw that the portuguese football federation wasn't sharing sponsorship money and prizes with them, and there was no communication. So, when it ended, the players were (unfairly) blamed by the press and the federation banned some players for the Euro 88 qualification. Nowadays the federation is mostly blamed for his medieval approach to the situation.
@@angelamomudu4354 an exaggerated way to say ancient, outdated and wrong approach. Like refusing to communicate with the players, refusing to leave their hq in City of Mexico and go to Saltillo to meet with the players, and blaming them for the situation, to the point of banning some of them in this qualification

Interessant! Wann bestritt Luis Figo sein erstes Spiel für Portugal?
Portugal and Sweden drawn in the same group for 3rd time in four qualifying campaigns.
I read that after the incidents at the 1986 world cup, some of the best players were banned, so the portuguese team was not at its best.
What happened in 1986?
