i dont think it matters who we play of course you want a preferable draw but portugal really arent that special anymore, i think apart from spain and germany were no better/worse than any of the others, russia was frustrating and it felt like a loss, should of been curtains at ht but were through and thats all that matters, i think hodgson is a prawn for the changes he made but its done so just need to get behind the team.
OK. Blundered through the red button link on BBC and currently watching the Iceland v Austria build up on a live feed, with refreshingly no commentary or punditry.
1) You can guarantee they will come second and play us.
2) They will turn us over. Again. Ronaldo will have a worldy.
For Portugal to come 2nd, there are only two possible scenarios: either they beat Hungary and Iceland beat Austria by the same score or better or Portugal draw with Hungary and Iceland draw with Austria, but score fewer goals than Portugal in their draw.
I think it's more likely that Portugal will win their group than finish 2nd, and, on balance, that Hungary finish 2nd and face England. However, I think it's very possible that Portugal might finish 3rd, and Iceland/Austria face England.
I think Portugal have actually being playing well. I always like watching them. Hope Ronaldo plays a free role on the right rather than down the middle.
