The team was defeated by France in a penalty shootout and stopped in the last eight. In response, the current Fenerbahce manager
Jose Mourinho (1961-), Portuguese soccer player
expressed his views in an interview with Sport TV. Mourinho believes that the Portuguese team has high potential, but its performance in this tournament did not meet expectations. He mentioned that although Portugal reached the last eight, the overall performance was not satisfactory, especially in the warm-up match with Croatia, he felt the tense atmosphere on the field. Mourinho also pointed out that the Portuguese team in the game showed progress, but this progress is not enough to be convincing, especially in the key moments, the team failed to show due intensity .
Mourinho also talked about the performance of several other national teams. He considered Spain to be the best performing team in this year's Euros, despite the fact that they are almost a brand new team. In addition, he also praised the Turkish team, saying that each of their victories gave him something new to think about, while Portugal's victory gave him joy .
