Portugal will still be short handed against Ghana so not sure they make it past them to be honest, and highly doubtful they get the goal count needed even if they do.




Also, this guy needs psychiatric help.

Why will Portugal be short handed? I must've missed something. Other than injuries they already have. They'll get Pepe back as well, but he's a knucklehead.

My earlier post I meant Muntari (not Mubhari, brain fart), who has been suspended and sent home along with Kevin Prince-Boateng. Interesting development, and I like Portugal there. Hopefully Ghana has enough pride to keep it close, but Muntari was a huge part of the draw against Germany.

The X factor is Ghana boycotting the match, and who knows what happens then! I doubt that will happen though.

Fabio Coentrao, Helder Postiga, and Hugo Almeida are all out for Portugal. When I made the statement, Boateng, Muntari suspensions hadn't occurred yet. It's probably a more even match now and even slightly in Portugal's favor.
