98681, Hopefully Portugal isn't content with the sit back-counter strategy Posted by LA2Philly, Wed Jun-27-12 11:58 AM
That we see so often against Spain because Portugal, esp w Nani playing well on the right, has the pieces to really some pressure on Spain going forward. Jordi Alba has been venturing so far forward in the tournament and Portugal has had a lot of success down the right flank so that may be where they can take advantage.
Obviously you have to disrupt Spain in the midfield by actually cutting down space, but then Portugal also has the dynamic talents required to force Spain to adjust to the opponent.
Can't wait.
