Portugal didn’t manage a single victory in 2007 after being put in the same pool as New Zealand, Scotland, Italy and Romania.
After heavy defeats to Scotland (56-10) and New Zealand (108-13), Portugal warmed to their task and were much more competitive in their final two fixtures, a 31-5 defeat to Italy followed by a 14-10 loss to Romania.
But Os Lobos will now get the chance to put the record straight after becoming the 20th and final qualifier for Rugby World Cup 2023.
