"Dutch radical Islamic group planned Euro 2004 attack in Portugal: police"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "LISBON : Three members of an extremist Dutch Islamic group were arrested and deported from Portugal just before the Euro 2004 football championship in June on suspicion of planning an attack, the former head of Portugal's police force said in comments published.
The men were arrested June 11 in Oporto, one day before the northern Portuguese city hosted the opening match of the championship, Adelino Salvado told the Portuguese daily Diario de Noticias.
The Dutch interior ministry last week identified the three as belonging to the so-called Hofstad group, which has been linked to the murder of filmmaker Theo van Gogh earlier this month.""

Interesting, that we discussed this event as a potential target last May.
IIRC, Jill had posted a request to list events which would have been upcoming in June 2004, to coincide with a threat she found on the jihadi forums.
The Euro 2004 was high on our list.
