Let’s relive the magic of Luis Figo.
It’s a masterclass! Raising his arms AND feigning injury. No wonder Estonia’s Urmas Rooba wanted him booked.
Figo has retired from international football, but the younger generation of Portuguese stars has long been ready to take up his mantle.
The third place play-off against Germany saw Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo raise his game to new heights. His take off, the limp lifeless form of his body and the seemingly neverending flight are all magnificent, of course, but exactly what we’ve come to expect of the Manchester United winger. It’s the rotation towards the referee and the television cameras that’s truly exceptional.
