Few matches in World Cup history carry the same notoriety as Portugal's quarter-final victory over the Netherlands at Germany 2006 — a contest so littered with cards and confrontation that it earned its own Wikipedia page.

The game, played in Nuremberg, set a record that still stands today: four red cards, 12 yellow cards, and a disciplinary tally no other match at the tournament has come close to matching.

Portugal midfielder Maniche, who scored the only goal of the match, spoke to FourFourTwo about what it was like to be inside that storm.
