game to take place on Tuesday, http://www.fpf.pt/scriptnews/view/show.php?id=2324 game to be live on rtp international 1pm eastern standard time http://programas.rtp.pt/EPG/epg-dia.php?datai=-0&dia=24-01-2006&sem=e&canal=5&gen=&time=
Here is the squad: Associação Académica de Coimbra: José Castro; Boavista FC: Diogo Valente; CD Feirense: Semedo; CF Estrela da Amadora: Bruno Vale; FC Paços Ferreira: José Fonte; FC Penafiel: Bruno Amaro; FC Porto: Hugo Almeida, Ivanildo, Paulo Ribeiro, Raul Meireles e Ricardo Quaresma; FC Thun: José Gonçalves; Marítimo: Filipe Oliveira e Nuno Morais; “Os Belenenses”: Ruben Amorim; Portimonense SC: Ruben Fernandes; SC Braga: Davide; Sporting CP: Custódio, João Moutinho, Miguel Garcia e Nani; Vitória FC de Setúbal: Varela. Appears Nani has got his papers through and Goncalves gets a call! Shame that Vaz Te went overlooked (or all they they saw was his miss vs. Friedel)
Nani has had his papers for a while. And Vaz Te was likely overlooked because of a conflicting schedule with English football or because Bolton wouldn't release him.
Manuel Fernandes got cut from the team last week that's got be the biggest surprise the other could be the striker playing in Bulgaria Furtado.
I know....I am still in shock that he isnt on the team. A little surprised Ricardo Vaz Te isnt there either.
Manuel has shown signs of over-hype this season though. I think Joao Coimbra (another player in Benfica's youth ranks) is better than him.
the way Bruno Amorim his playing , special after the games with Benfica and Sporting, Te Vaz not going to get a opportunity with the U21 by the way his starting again today in the Leiria vs Belenenses
Agostinho anounced that the SCP's players wont play the finnal game...and so they will return sooner to their club. Obviously, FCP's players will stay! That's what I call fair and equal treatment! Anyway, the team has been anounced by Agostinho: GK: B Vale RB: F Oliveira LB: J Gonçalves CB: J Fonte CB: Z Castro DMC: R Meireles DMC: Custódio MC: J Moutinho AMR: R Quaresma AML: D Valente ST: H Almeida Firstly, this team has a decent RB! I hope F Oliveira makes a good game and proves that he is what we need to tackle safely the U-21 Euro without worring too much with the right-flank. Also, I'm expecting to see a good display by J Gonçalves. We need a valid solution to that flank aswell. H Valdir and V Rodrigues are decent options, but neither is in the same "class" level as the rest of the team. Finally, another CB will be tested with Z Castro. So, after P Ribeiro, M Ângelo, N Morais and Semedo...J Fonte is the next one. So far, the most convincing CB was Semedo. Let's see how the "ex-Vitória resign" will perform...
Jose Gonsalves I want to play for Benfica, he was born in Lisbon from Cape Verde parents and they moved to Switzerland when he was 2 http://www.record.pt/noticia.asp?id=694916&idCanal=292
1-1 in the 60th minute. Hugo Almeida tied it up at the 56th minute. Why do I get the feeling he only scores for the under-21 NT?
Well we lose out on pks ...When a team misses chances like we did today,only one thing is expected....defeat
