The 2016 European champions headed to Euro 2024 as one of the favorites to go the whole hog, with Roberto Martinez taking over from Euro 2016-winning coach Fernando Santos in the dugout.
Cristiano Ronaldo, now 39, is appearing in his sixth European Championship and 11th major international tournament, and the most-capped male player in international football history will be crucial to his side's hopes.

Martinez will be looking to achieve with Portugal what he couldn't with Belgium's "Golden Generation" by winning a major tournament, while Ronaldo has his sights set on adding a second international honor, following heartbreak at the 2022 World Cup.
Aside from Ronaldo, the Portugal squad contains exciting talent from the likes of Joao Cancelo, Ruben Dias, Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes and Joao Felix. They should be an entertaining watch, as they aim replicate their heroics from eight years ago.
