Prioritize Portugal Escaped from the Group of Death

In Euro 2012, Portugal joined in a tough group. Will face opponents who could not say lightly, Cristiano Ronaldo escaped the group stage called a top priority Portugal. Portugal joined in Group B, known as the group of death. In addition to Portugal, this group also filled other seeded teams such as Germany and the Netherlands. Denmark who beat Portugal in qualifying and forced Portugal to Poland-Ukraine passes through the playoffs there is also this group.



Weighing opponents who will face Ronaldo put Portugal to make a realistic target. He first wanted to take his team away from the group phase. "We knew we were in the weight group, group of death, and our first priority is get away from the first phase," said the Real Madrid star was quoted as saying by AFP. "We're in between Germany, the Netherlands, and Denmark - who beat us in the group during qualifying - but I have a reasonable expectation that we will qualify from the group. We are not a favorite, and it's better." Ronaldo then predict there will be no surprises in the tournament this year. He still calls Spain as well as the strongest teams seeded. "I think the Euro this time will not be many surprises. Spain is very strong and behind them there are some teams jkuat to deal with," he concluded.
