In the line-ups
4 appearances in recorded line-ups · 1984The archive holds 4 team sheets naming Rui Jordão in Portugal's starting line-up, from 1984-06-14 to 1984-06-23.
4 appearances in the starting line-ups the archive holds — not a career total. Our line-up coverage is partial, so a match he played that we hold no sheet for is simply not counted here.
