At the annual Globe Soccer Awards ceremony, Portugal’s national team was officially announced as the best team of 2025.

This recognition was the logical conclusion of a phenomenal season, during which the Portuguese confirmed their status as one of the main forces of European football.

The main achievement that earned the Portuguese this award was their triumphant performance in the League of Nations 2025. Throughout the tournament, the team showed impeccable performance, and the season culminated in the final match against arch-rivals Spain.

In a tense final, Portugal managed to beat the reigning European champions, showing not only character but also outstanding tactical flexibility. This title was the team’s second in the history of the Nations League, making them the most successful team in the tournament.
