Deco’s Portugal squad are the first team to make it through to the quarterfinals. With six points from their two games, Switzerland’s defeat against Turkey means that Portugal have qualified.
A last minute goal from Arda Turan gave Turkey an important win over co-hosts Switzerland and also
guaranteed Portugal a place in the quarterfinals. Deco and the rest of his team-mates had earlier
beaten the Czech Republic
3-1
, their second win in two matches.
Furthermore, they have assured themselves of first place in the group with a game still to
play as they have the better record against Turkey and the Czech Republic.
