Euro 2012 Quarterfinals: Czech Republic vs. Portugal

Euro2012

 

Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal will look to take a step closer to the European Championship Final when they take on underdog Czech Republic in the first quarterfinal of the tournament (2:45pm, ESPN).

The Portuguese rallied to finish second in the tournament's Group of Death, and looked impressive doing so. Ronaldo found his form in the decisive win against the Netherlands and should be a threat yet again.

The Czech Republic will be the underdog despite having won a group that included Russia and host Poland. The Czechs have carried impressive flank play and some timely finishing into the quarters, where they are the biggest underdog in the field. They will need their impressive fullbacks to contain Ronaldo and Nani to have any chance of stopping Portugal today.
