A Seleção das Quinas - \"The Team of the Shields\" - have established themselves as one of the international game's modern powers, with major silverware in the form of UEFA Euro 2016 and a record two UEFA Nations League titles, lifted in 2019 and 2025.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis legacy has been shaped by legendary figures such as Eusébio, Luís Figo, Rui Costa, Pepe, and Deco, whose brilliance has defined Portuguese football across generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePortugal wore this iconic home shirt at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany under Brazilian manager Luiz Felipe Scolari, the 2002 World Cup-winning coach who had taken charge in 2003. A Seleção produced their finest tournament run in forty years, winning all three group games against Angola, Iran and Mexico before edging the Netherlands 1-0 in a notorious round of 16 tie at Nuremberg - the match producing a record sixteen yellow cards and four reds. The quarter-final against England finished goalless after extra time, with goalkeeper Ricardo saving three English spot-kicks to send Portugal through, a 21-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo calmly converting the winning penalty. Narrow defeats to France in the semi-final and to Germany in the third-place play-off left Portugal fourth - their best World Cup finish since the golden 1966 run, and a fitting last major tournament for captain Luís Figo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs of 2026, Portugal head to the FIFA World Cup in the USA, Canada and Mexico as one of the tournament favourites. With a squad built around Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, Rúben Dias, Vitinha, Rafael Leão and a 41-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo - heading to his record sixth World Cup - A Seleção will be looking to convert a generation of golden footballers into a first ever World Cup triumph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow A Seleção on X: @selecaoportugal\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Surprise Shirts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55475753943416,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/5564\/9221\/files\/Portugal2006HomeShirt.jpg?v=1772032011","url":"https:\/\/surpriseshirts.co.uk\/products\/portugal-2006-home-shirt","provider":"Surprise Shirts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
