If the Portuguese score, it will be through a counter. As it is, they didn't have much of the possession through out the tournament, so don't expect that to change today. Nani and Cristiano should be at their utmost best down the flanks to take whatever opportunity they're presented with. And it might be a blessing in disguise that Postiga isn't starting, hate that guy. Almeida, though past his prime and is close to retirement, is a lot better than the other dude.
Pepe has been magnificent throughout, people hasn't noticed much. But if I'm not wrong, he hasn't even been booked.. The only weak link is Coentrao, I say unleash Navas' pace on him, he gets caught often.. But don't see that happening at the starting either..
If the Portuguese score first, they will win it, else Spain 2-0 and Spain should start with Torres!
