22.Ribery 4.Vieira 6.Makelele 10.Zidane 7.Malouda
12.Henry
These are a little facts I gathered from some online sources, and I think Portugal might have the chance to draw in 90 minutes but France will advance to the final, anyway. Portugese forwards are too weak in this world cup. Lone striker Pauleta scored most goals in the qualifying rounds but he has not been on the top form this summer.

I'm, A dye hard Portugal fan but France looks good but don't forget Portugal was missing Deco and Costinha for the England game when we beat them in PK'S so I'm hopping Portugal will give it their all and play from the heart not like Brazil who played one man to win no! Portugal is a team and they will win as one to, so look out France today Portugal changes history ,
VIVA PORTUGAL!

I have no idea but this is going to be a cracker of a match. France played so well today, and the old man of football showed his value and worth. He was amazing. But Portugal will have Deco back for this game also and they have shown such determination. Portugal's coach is great and will not be intimidated by the job in front of him. I'm really looking forward to this match. Good Luck to both sides.

France have proven themselves, Portugal hasn't. If France was able to beat the ''great brazilians'' then who will stop them? Who knows, but I would bet that Portugal will not be in the finale

I want Portugal to win and I think they will because it seems that there more focused and the goalies REALLY GOOD AT BLOCKING. But France is also really good they have pretty good players and they have really good footwork but I'd have to say it's going to be Portugal who wins but that's just me.
