BRASIL/PORTUGAL: Friday's Match May Be Great Soccer.
CANADIAN PRESS/ Powerhouse Brasil and surprising Portugal meet again Friday morning. Brasil wants to secure first place in its group and Portugal needs at least the draw that will guarantee its place in the second round. "I think Portugal and Brasil have what it takes to put on a great football show for the world," said Portugal's coach Carlos Queiroz. "Let's see whether we and Brasil can make fans focus on football and less on the Jabulani (ball) and the vuvuzelas." For Portugal it will be the biggest challenge after easily thrashing North Korea 7-0 in its last match, following a 0-0 draw against Ivory Coast in its opener.
