We are not better than they are. That doesn't mean we can't or won't score. We will definitely have chances, but we aren't facing Ghana's D, which was supremely porous.


Ghana could do what Portugal can't. "Out physical" us. Not saying we can destroy Portugal, but they aren't near as athletic or physical as Ghana was. Plus they've been hit hard with injury/cards. I think we'll have more attacking success with them than we did against Ghana. Maybe not more goals, but opportunities.

Portugal will counter with more danger and precision. It won´t be that bomb forward fest with no plan.

Midfield, like always will be key. Above all, keeping posession, albeit naïve, but keeping it, just over the center half.

CRon will spring diagonally, and I don´t care who´s out there, Portugal can do a better job of placing balls than Ghana can....

Also, I hope Jermaine Jones realizes he doesn´t need to have a Ghana match here, but a tactical one. Very, very important.
