Portugal — first Euro-2012 semifinalist (photo)
Paulo Bento's team has defeated the Czech team - 1:0.
However, it is impossible to say that they won by a neck. The 17th (!) attempt to attack Petr Čech's gates resulted in a goal. The Portuguese made 20 attempts to score a goal while the Czechs made only 2.
The Czechs played an extremely defensive game for 1.5 periods. However, Cristiano Ronaldo managed to score a goal during the 79th minute and destroyed the Czechs hope for additional time.
Thus, Portugal has made it to the semi-final! Its rival will be chosen in Germany-Greece match on June 22.
