I`m a South African. I have not been so inspired for a very long time. That is what it`s about. Portugal is the real winners in this WC so far. Rugby is so much better with them around. Obrigado.
The first time that I've cried watching any kind of mach! 😢 I'm portuguese and I've studied in Coimbra where there is a rugby field...those guys go to train after their working day, almost every day! It's impressive the mentally and unity that the guys have.
Portugal Rugby, welcome to your recognition. Man, you were awesome, and I loved the game. When France became the 5th Nation, they weren't what they are today. But they were full of French flair, you guys have flair. Keep doing what you are 👍🏴🇵🇹
I'm Portuguese and I'm proud of my team for its first World Cup victory! 🐺 I think that, because of its humility, passion and romantic rugby, Portugal has become everyone's second team! 🇵🇹
Being a Portuguese-American who played lots of rugby, starting way back in 1973, and still refereeing now, this game is one of my favorites of all time. Love it that Portugal finally won a RWC game, after losing in the final minutes to Rumania in 2007.
Las cosas lindas que regala el Deporte!! Bien hecho Portugal, me emocionó muchísimo este partido. Deseo que siga creciendo el Rugby en Portugal. Saludos de Argentina y Felicitaciones, ese partido queda en la Historia deportiva de ese País y de esta disciplina.
Mesmo para quem nunca viu um jogo de Rugby como eu e percebo zero deste desporto foi emocionanete ver este jogo. Que espitiro de luta e camaradagem se viveu aqui! Que emocionante! Parabéns Lobos!
Uffff, mis vecinos portugueses, superorgullosos de ellos de corazón. La llegada de los jugadores al aeropuerto hace unos días fue aún más emocionante con todos los niños allí reunidos.
This is what makes rugby Rugby. The sheer elation of success is a wonderful thing, but to do it for your country, and on the world stage, well it's a joy to watch. Well played, Portugal!!
The old heads for Portugal really brought out the best in their youth. Tadjar with the insane consistency in the line out and Marques playing the full 80. Even with some of the players retiring, this Portugal team have the youth system to be challenging italy in at least 4 years
A lot of teams in Portugal's position wouldn't have recovered from leading 17-10 to going behind 17-23. Portugal were brilliant all game but crucially they never gave up, and that is what allowed them to win the game when most tier 2 teams would have lost belief after going behind in the way that Portugal did.
That final try suggests that Fiji weren't taking the Portuguese seriously - they did not cover that blind side properly as they would have done against a T1 nation. Well done, Portugal - maybe next time Fiji will not underrate their opponents.
And some of the Portuguese players have full time jobs. Thats why all that Pride and Emotion. Every Tear,Every single word from the National Anthem comes from the deepest place of their Heart and Soul. They know what the name of their Country Represents in the history of Mankind. Very Brave and Proud People. Congratulations Portugal,never quit until the end.👍👍👏👏👏
Love that Portugal won. And love how Fiji still made it through. Fiji usually play to the level of their opponents. That’s how this one got away. But still, Portugal were unreal this tournament. Can’t wait to see them next 4 years. This will most likely be the toughest qualifying for Rugby World Cup now. Instead of having top 8 teams qualify, every team should have qualifiers. So tier one nations have to go through the process and can also miss out. The only team that’s solidified is the host and winners. Just like soccer. Hope rugby adapt that theory. That way more tests for tier one and tier 2 and meaningful matches with finals atmosphere.
Portugal need more games with top tier nations. They can play now against the best. Quite honestly Australia had the referee on their team and still Portugal gave them a hard time. Georgia played the best rugby game of their lives to draw with Portugal.
See my country with such quality and heart on the field makes me so proud... Portela, Samuel Marques, Tadjer, Nicolas Martins, José Reis, Appleton and the 2 wonderkids Rodrigo Marta and Storti! These were the best to me in this RWC, but we have more great players... Dont forget us! Portugal, Georgia, USA and other "called" tier 2 countries should compete more against the top teams in the future! Level the chances so other countries can grow and shine!
Portugal was defeated by Wales and Australia with 20 points of difference, but we all saw that in the pitch that wasnt the real difference. What a fantastic job of Lobos ! Parabéns e muito orgulho!!!! 🐺🇵🇹🏉
Everything the spirit and code of rugby stands for, courage,character and commitment. Well done portugal, from an irish fan. Hopefully we ll all be there in 2027!!
The world of Rugby should do all it can to now help further the game in second tier nations, especially Portugal, after seeing their home coming at the airport, wow.
This was an excellent game of rugby. Easily the best of the weekend and that's coming from an Irish fan. I really wish World Rugby would invest more in tier 2 nations. I mean Japan is the only team coming into their own and their in the sort of Tier 1.5 bracket with Uruguay, Italy and Fiji.
As an FJ fan, I wasn't too disappointed but happy for the Lobos boys on that achievement from a casual rugby fan perspective. Portugal finished on a high like we did with that famous win as I look back on this.
Le Portugal décroche la première victoire de son histoire ! Exceptionnels dans l'abnégation, les Portugais ont pris le meilleur sur les Fidjiens au terme d'un combat de 80 minutes (24-23)
Oh Portugal, how brave you became and how wonderfully well you represented rugby, fantastic result and we are now looking forward to more treat results in the future ❤❤❤
Great game to finish the pool stage. Portugal gave everything, never gave up and fully deserved the win. They made a lot of friends during this RWC, hopefully we'll see a lot more of them in the future 🇵🇹👏👏
Sem dúvidas, este foi e será mais um dos grandes jogos memoráveis na História do Rugby! Parabéns aos Lobos pela primeira vitória em mundiais desde sempre!👏👏👏👏👏
Well done Portugal. Some Tier 2 teams are a lot closer to our supposedly superior Tier 1 teams. You gave us (Wales) a great game. Knowing the Fiji guys, you won't have felt pain for 2 days (aside from hangovers!) and will have plenty of bits to have taken home.
O vídeo começa com a substituição do Mike Tadjer. Portugal está a perder, e ele sai como um cavalheiro, a agradecer os aplausos, sem pressas. É assim que se faz, senhores e senhoras adeptos(as) do futebol.
Independente ser rugby ou futebol ou ser profissional ou semi profissional ou amador, estamos numa competição altamente competitiva, se um elemento de uma equipe é substituído e essa mesma equipe está a perder o atleta a ser substituído deve sair com passo acelerado até por respeito aos colegas q estão no campo e aos adeptos. Mike Tadjer sai "rebentado" e não sai com um andar como se fosse tomar um café! O seu comentário é totalmente despropositado!
As a neutral I cried at the end. I guess I wasn't a neutral after all. Stunning Portugal!
Well said. Me to and I`m a South African.
I'm not a neutral but I cried when they scored against the All blacks
Brazilian here. The emotion was overwhelming! Vamos Portugal!
❤🐺🇵🇹
@@heroicacts5218obrigado!

I live in Chile and we lost all our games, but we were there. Happy for Portugal. Nou vir die Bokke!
I think they will improve in time.
I was more inspired when Japan beat South Africa
@@gopr3117 i was morę inspired when Uruguay beat Fiji
Sad, but true.@@gopr3117
Im from Fiji and I love how Portugal played... Well done ❤
👍
🤌
🤗 Obrigado/thanks!
Parabéns aos nossos irmãos Portugueses! Jogaram com muita raça e não desistiram! Abraços do Brasil!
Obrigado meu irmão 🇧🇷🇵🇹

seeing the tears of joy in portugal really warmed my heart, this is why I love rugby, I think we will see great things from portugal in the future.
I had tears in my eyes. What a wonderful match to end the group stage.
There isn't much that can beat the theatre and emotion of sport. Thank you Portugal. That was beautiful.
I'm Portuguese and I'm proud of my team for its first World Cup victory! 🐺
I think that, because of its humility, passion and romantic rugby, Portugal has become everyone's second team! 🇵🇹
I'm from Wales and I knew you'd win at least one of the games after we played you. Brilliant against us and you have class running rugby with passion.
Yup.
It's comparable with Iceland playing football WC
Eu gostei muito do "romantic rugby". Aínda poderia ser o motto da equipe.
Portugal is brillant, The beauty of Rugby, despite not able to qualify for next round, winning this game was like lifting the World Cup for them.
Being a Portuguese-American who played lots of rugby, starting way back in 1973, and still refereeing now, this game is one of my favorites of all time. Love it that Portugal finally won a RWC game, after losing in the final minutes to Rumania in 2007.
Muito obrigado e um abraço de Lisboa. Viva Portugal!
Lets all say welcome to Portugal at the Tier 1 club of Rugby. You deserve alot more exposure.
Las cosas lindas que regala el Deporte!! Bien hecho Portugal, me emocionó muchísimo este partido. Deseo que siga creciendo el Rugby en Portugal. Saludos de Argentina y Felicitaciones, ese partido queda en la Historia deportiva de ese País y de esta disciplina.

Concordo. Não percebo um caralho mas é difícil não vibrar com as emoções deles
Percebeste o essencial, Liliana. E já tens quase 100 gostos no teu comentário, merecidamente.
Congrats Portugal, from a Kiwi/Aussi.
My wife is a Porra, and we love in South Africa.. as a Boks fan, this was an amazing game!🇵🇹🇿🇦

Great peice of rugby history Portugal .So happy to see it peace from New Zealand Maori
Thank you. All Blacks are the best.
Also well done against Ireland.
thanx Puma,s are due for a big win though . They have been world class for generations .
Parabens Portugal. Saludos desde Filipinas.
👍
Felicidades Portugal excelente victoria corazón y garra saludos de Argentina!
Muito obrigado. Um abraço de Lisboa!
As an ABs fan, this was simply magical! Well done Portugal! We all hope to see you at the next one. Best game of the pools.
NZ v Namibia was also a close game though 😂
If Portugal won more than 7 points Australia will be in semis❤❤😊😊😊
a lesson in not meeting fire with fire. be like water my friend.
@@nickmills8476 I like that !

It’s most likely cuz they already qualified so no real hunger left@@catch_0227
They reacted in the same way Italy did against Uruguay, but from then on they just switched off (Italy)
@@catch_0227 I think that winger saw the opening down the right touch line lane, and he's fast and took advantage.
Portugal have been amazing to watch all tournament! So heartwarming to see how much this win means to the team and their nation 🥹
Oh my gosh this tournament has really really delivered. Congrats Portugal on an amazing win
Absolutely magnificent Portugal brought magic back into rugby 🏉 👏
And some of the Portuguese players have full time jobs.
Thats why all that Pride and Emotion.
Every Tear,Every single word from the National Anthem comes from the deepest place of their Heart and Soul.

This was one of the most awesome moments in rugby history. I think the only thing that can be better than that is lifting the trophy over your head.
Thats. How. You. Play. With. Your. Heart. be. Strong. Like. Lions. And. For. Your. Country. Wishing. You. All. The. Best. portugal
Not lions my friend... Wolves!! What we saw was a hungry wolf pack for victory
There's no other way
Best & Good luck
So happy for Portugal!

Tier 1 nations don't automatically qualify, it's based off where they finished in pools previous World Cup
Portugal need more games with top tier nations. They can play now against the best.
Quite honestly Australia had the referee on their team and still Portugal gave them a hard time.
Georgia played the best rugby game of their lives to draw with Portugal.
Correct!
04:52 just amazing! Considering Portugal team has mostly amateurs/almost pros ,maybe one or 2 pros, this was even more awesome!

Best game of Rugby in the world cup so far,

I had no ideia that we had a rugby team this good. So proud. Que orgulho!
I cried and screamed my heart out when they won for the first time. 2027 here we go
No me canso de mirar este compacto. Gracias Portugal, gracias Fiji....
Gracias al rugby, que me a dado tanto.....
Orgulhoso dos Lobos! 🇵🇹
Excellent Portugal, well done. They played well the whole tournament.
I'm not crying you are. Força Portugal 💪🇵🇹
Kick was awesome, hard angle and under pressure.
Holy smokes! Well done Portugal!!
Que loucura!!! Orgulho é pouco... Grandes Lobos!!!
Congratulations Portugal! Awesome effort!
Wow! What an ending. Heart breaking for my Fijian friends but all due credit to Portugal. I want to hug someone after this game!
Os lovos. I just love this win. 🇨🇴🤝🇵🇹
Que alegria olhar para uma selecção portuguesa e só ver portugueses, assim dá para vibrar.
VIVAM OS LOBOS!
Tenho más noticias para ti, mas não são todos portugueses. Alguns nem sabem falar português. A maioria sim, mas basta veres os apelidos.
Portugal squad needs a strong sponsor to grow in a professional way
So proud of Portugal 🥹❤️🇵🇹🐺

Nunca me canso de vir aqui de tempos a tempos recordar ❤
Might be time for a 7 Nations Tournament. Well done Portugal
At the very least it furthers the argument for having a relegation system for the Six Nations.
@@Sinnach87Pro Rugby is about money, there's no chances for 7 nations or relegations
They are called the wolves, but they play like lions.
