For sure. If Portugal go onad destroy Turkey next Saturday, I won't be any more excited about the team going into the tourney, just like I'm not discouraged about today's pretty poor showing.

like I said, Portugal seemed disinterested for much of the game, showing zero urgency. They very well may be 3 and done at EURO, but it won't be for a lack of effort like today.
