Key fact

Had never qualified before 2017 but now in their third straight Women's EURO, as well as making their World Cup debut in 2023.

Portugal coach: Francisco Neto

Appointed in February 2014, Neto took over a team that had never played in a major final tournament and is now preparing for his and their fourth, not to mention a third UEFA Women's EURO in a row. Son of a football coach, Neto's first training role came at the age of 20 with Viseu Football Association Under-13s and in 2007 he became responsible for all their regional squads, also serving an internship with the women's national team during an Algarve Cup.

As a result, Portugal coach Mónica Jorge appointed Neto as goalkeeper coach. In 2010 Neto coached in India before his return to Portugal as women's coach in 2014, leading them to historic qualifications for the last three Women's EUROs as well as the 2023 World Cup.
