Paulo Bento: "I think a team that played against Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands like we did will not have any problems with their mental recovery. The physical recovery has been good too. I will try to transform this individual happiness [from his recent 43rd birthday] into a collective happiness. But my greatest wish is that this happiness will be for all the Portuguese people after the game tomorrow."(Yahoo)
Czech Rep.'s key player: Michal Kadlec. The Bayer Leverkusen man is playing out of position in the centre of the Czech Republic's defence, and have done remarkably so far at Euro 2012. He will have to be at his brilliant best on Thursday to help his team contain the Portuguese juggernaut.
Portugal's Player to Watch: Cristiano Ronaldo. The Real Madrid ace silenced his critics with a stunning performance against Netherlands, and he will be keen to prove that his display was not just a part of a 'hot and cold' sequence. His pace, power, dribbling and shooting could be the key to unlock Michal Bilek's side's defence

Czech Rep. vs Portugal Prediction: Both teams come into the game on the back of two wins, and while Portugal's individual class would normally see them through, at a European tournament anything can happen. The Seleccao's defensive frailties were exposed against Denmark, and the Czech Republic's collective spirit could see them hold on and force the contest into penalties.(Goal)
