Portugal are BACK in the Euros after a TWELVE YEAR absence!
Jump back in time to 1996 for Episode 2 of Os Arquivos.
Aaron and Filipe discuss Euro 96, hosted in England. This tournament saw Portugal return to England, the place they lost in the 1966 World Cup finals. Euro 96 saw the emergence of Portugal's Golden Generation, with many of this young squad being part of the squads that won the 1989 and 1991 World Youth Championships.
Although it wasn't until Euro 2000 that this crop was in their prime, 96 gave us an insight into what was to come, with Ruud Gullit famously describing A Seleção's identity as Sexy Football!
