TEAM NEWS

Ivory Coast coach Sven-Goran Eriksson must decide whether or not to risk captain Didier Drogba, who broke a bone in his arm on 4 June. If he is ruled out, Seydou Doumbia is set to replace him up front alongside Salomon Kalou.

Portugal's defensive midfielder, Pepe, only made his comeback from a serious knee injury against Mozambique last week, so he may have to settle for a place on the bench.

Simao has declared himself fit after a minor knee complaint and is likely to start, given Nani's departure from the squad with a collarbone injury.

this one could be a cracker of a game ... i really hope drogba can play, though I'm sure they'd have to arm so numb I can't see how it wouldn't affect him.

I've a sneaky feeling he will play - it's such an important game.

Starting on the bench mate.

So a-ring-a-ding-dong is lone striker then - I wonder if Drogba will come on at some point if needed though.

I imagine they wouldn't have him on the bench if he wasn't to come on at some point.

with a fucking broken arm ... robbie could learn a bit from him

FFS, deserved a goal that shot, fucking cracker from tranny.

I can't stand the little winker but that was a spectacular shot onto the post.

he's a diving cunt but ronaldo really is a great player.

Very quick game so far, much better than the pantload we were watching earlier.

I see those two things as mutually exclusive. Call me old-fashioned but I believe the very best don't need to cheat.

How about talented player but diving cunt then?

The commentator's sidekicks on ITV never fail to pee me off.

Diving cunt and diving cunt is about the best I can manage, I'm afraid.

That pitch looks worse than Wembley - it's cut to shreds already.

is toure at RB btw?

I think it's Demel at RB - he's playing in their half most of the time though so maybe Toure is covering a lot.

Well, it's consistent.

Good game so far. Hope Ronaldo breaks his legs, horrible horrible cunt. Kalou should be subbed, keeps giving the ball away in promising positions. Gervinho looks like a good player

That was a massive roar for Drogba
