That's why Montenegro got a draw otherwise they would have won. My comment only came because MaximOrlov's comment was provocative. I admit that Portugal's defence was abismal - as you can see from the comments above - I didn't reply to any referring to the poor defence, they are right!
The goal of the month def goes to Icelands Jonasson.... Portugal had their win nothing to add.... No comparisson to Spain.... Portugal are yet to find their game
Looking forward to the big final on tuesday! DK-Portugal. So exiting! A draw in this game and min. A draw in Sweden-Holland send both DK and Portugal direct to Euro 2012!
I think the defence will be better against stronger teams. Its just the lack of motivation and concentration against teams like cyprus and iceland, its playing a big part in the portuguese team, I guess. It seems they can't focus on a whole match...
Every time Portugal play I check out the teamsheet just to make my mouth water at their front-3. I couldn't give a toss who's in the middle; just seeing Nani and Ronaldo on either flank is terrifying!
Needless to say, both defenses were utterly and horribly lax, although you'd think with all to play for, Portugal would be much tighter.... Carvalho seems missed if I'm honest.... The back line with him and pepe were quite solid at the WC.... Only let in a goal (against spain when they were knocked out)
