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.

I'd be disinterested too! Nothing worse than breaking a leg days before the tournament (see Zidane in 2002).
Friendlies are just for the coach to goof around with tactics and for the players to get some exercise.
