Watch Euro 2012 Portugal vs Spain Live Streaming
Portugal vs Spain Match Schedule: June 27, 2012 7:45 PM BST
Donbass Arena — Donets'k
Referee: C. Çakιr
Portugal's Player to Watch: Cristiano Ronaldo. It would be amiss to choose anyone else as Portugal's star for this encounter. The winger will be confident of getting the better of his Real Madrid team-mate Alvaro Arbeloa and after a frustrating start at the competition, has come up with match-winning efforts in his side's last two games. Can he do it again?
Spain's Player to watch: Andrés Iniesta Luján. Portugal will no doubt prove a difficult side to break down, bit if anyone has the sharpness, timing, and creativity to unlock Pepe and Co in Donetsk it is the talented midfielder. He's made a habit of turning in big contributions in big games and Del Bosque will hope this semi-final is another the Barcelona man adds to his CV.

Donbass Arena — Donets'k
Referee: C. Çakιr
Vicente del Bosque: "This is the most important game of our lives. We hope that we will keep progressing and stay in the elite of football. We have spent the whole of our lives looking for a style and now we have one that has been successful. Yet there are always people who are not satisfied. Our philosophy has got us here. I would prefer [Portugal] to play deep. I like us to be in the opposition's half and to have possession of the ball. I think that we have the players and the resources to open up defences."(Yahoo)

Portugal vs Spain Prediction: Portugal have played to their potential in Euro 2012 and arguably the same cannot be said for Spain. The Iberian rivalry could go either way, but if Ronaldo remains in devastating form and the defence holds firm against a Spain side who have failed to click in attack, the champions could well be dethroned by a shock result.
