THE PORTUGUESE DREAM IS OVER = (
It's just a game after all, isn't it?
Well I guess my passion for my National team goes a bit behond...
"Portugal the champion of the world cup"..
What a great healine whould that be for all the newspapers in the world....
Would a ball have told the World that we exist,
that althought little,
with a weak economy that strugles to survive within the surrounding big countries,
we have good peolpe,
able of great achivments,
we have quality, we can and we are able to improve...
Will we have to continue our sad path, singing our fado and believing that one day the World will wake up and look at us in a different way?
