With the World Cup being only 31 days away the pressure has finally been put on Portugal by the press. Numerous articles have been writen on Portugal. They speak that Portugal's golden generation is coming to an end. With Portugal's main stars ageing, mainly Portugal's super star Luis Figo, who turned 30 this year. This group of player known as the golden generation are said to have grown up together, since these players were picked when they were as young as 13. This is Portugal's best chance of winning a World Cup ever since 1966, when Portugal finished 3rd, led by the great Black Panther Eusebio. As I read certain articles, one poped up that struck me. It said by Germany 2006, The Golden Generation would be known as the Silver Generation. Portugal is basically fighting time. They have made it all this far and know they must face their greatest task.
