It is a sad situation for Quim as a Portugal 2nd choice goalkeeper in the Euro 2008. A lot was going in his favor to be in the starting lineup.
Because of an injury on his righthand in a training session, he's was ruled out of the Euro 2008 before Portugal's 1st game! He had already missed the 2002 world cup, 2006 world cup. Nuno, a goalkeeper from FC Porto was called up in his place.
Here's a video of Quim about to leave Neuchatel this wednesday,
- He stayed a few days with the Portugal team in Neuchatel
- Decided it would be better to be with his family and loved ones back home.
- It's tough to be so close to the field and not be able to help
