Frank What can you tell me about Tiago How old is he and would you consider him a very bright prospect
Tiago had a grear season in 02/03, his good and Benfica just extended his contract past 2007 he scored 13 goals as a defensive midfielder last season, he was injured at the begin of this season but is coming around.
Hugo Viana and Ronaldo both U21 they will play for the A team, don't make sense but I guess Scolari wants a win.
I will try, this game is twomorrow, tonight's game I have to be away, rtp international will have the game live.
SCOLARI made a change out of the starting line, Miguel, Boa Morte and Hugo Viana In the starting lineup- Cristiano Ronaldo, Ferreira and Tiago game to be televise on rtp international 21:10 16:10 06:10 FUTEBOL: CAMPEONATO DA EUROPA 2004 (AA) PORTUGAL vs ALBANIA Depois da vitória na Noruega, a nossa selecção continua a preparação para o Euro 2004
Roy you ask too many questions! Tiago is a dangerous player in the area box , rarely turns the ball over , and he is consistent. He needs to work on his defensive game and he is not a flashy player. I am glad to see carvalho getting a call! Call Lorenco!! I like his game!
