We're a little late on a thread or any mention of this one considering everyone is busy concentrating on the start of the club season. However, Portugal are competing in this tournament after being absent from the 2009 tournament. We last competed in Canada 2007 where we lost to Chile in the knock-out stages with the infamous meltdown from our youngsters.
So far we've played 2 group matches where we drew against Uruguay (0-0) and won against Cameroon (1-0).
We're currently the leader in Group B on 4 points.
