Honestly, I think this is a hard game to take any conclusions from. We were already qualified, pretty sure mathematically guaranteed as top of the group, and against the 200th-ranked team in the world, so this really was no more than a friendly game where the only real stakes were the possibility for 9/9 wins in Euro qualifiers (a first for us). We got the job done and Martínez got to do some experimentation... even if his changes were bizarre, to say the least.

That said, we were on autopilot all game long, apart from a few stretches. CR7 and Cancelo were game, Félix had a good moment or two (outside of the many missed attempts), otherwise the team just kinda slogged through. Gonçalo Ramos had a shambles performance, but in fairness to him, pretty much nobody really showed up.
