86OVR
Santos' 2016 Portugal. A stubborn tournament side that absorbed, countered, and won Europe the hard way after Ronaldo left the final early.
If you came to beat a particular ghost, France 2018 is the default other shirt.
Same club, other years in the database: 2026, 2004.

What the numbers say
Possession 48. This is not a keep-ball souvenir. Counter-attack 84: the point is the break, not the concert. Tempo 58. Patience, or at least the impression of it. They will ask a question at set pieces (aerial 78).
