Portugal x Russia (Group A, 16 June)
life or death match for us, anything other than the victory and we're fucked. russia doesn't seem like a decent opponent though, even if our team isn't working very well. i say we win

I see this as a hard match. Neither Russia nor Portugal play well last Saturday... I think the result can be... 1-1

Portugal need to improve big time for them to win this but can see it happenning as it is a must win game now. Russia are in to much disarray with Mostovoi being sent home plus they looked bad against Spain.
2-0 Portugal

meh
1. mostovoi is overrated... now at least.. 2 years ago he was very good
2.he is too slow and slows the russian attack
3. we can pick from izmailov, loskov, alenichev, radimov in centre who are just as good
so mostovoi is not a factor
now if they only got rid of bulykin
russia 2 portugal 1

Its not the fact that Mostovoi has gone its the apparent friction and trouble in the Russian camp

... and Sharonov was sent off against Spain, delivering even more chaos to the russian defense. Perhaps we'll win this one. Perhaps. But 2-1 is as high as I'll bet.

If Portugal won't win this game they'll have weak chances to go through the next round...But I think, that draw will be the best result for this game, because in this situation Portugal must win in the final game against Spain! So in my opinion it's gonna be very interesting!
So Portugal - Russia 1:1
