Portugal vs. France (semifinal, 5-Jul)

Portugal is still looking solid, although I thought England had more interesting chances in their last game, but their keeper is amazing. Figo is playing like a champion again, and they seem to play very well together. Throw in a brazilian coach who's won the world cup already, and I think they have a great chance.

Speaking of old stars finally back into their old form, Zidane was amazing vs Brazil. If the French can duplicate their last performance, we should see some really really awesome football. I still think Henry is one of my favourite strikers, and when things really click they're beautiful to watch.

This should be a really great game!

    Portugal's goalie is a s.t.u.d.

    I'm cheering for Portugual also, but like you I wouldn't be surprised at all if France goes on. However, Portugual has yet to win a World Cup, so they might be out to prove something.
