Let the train begins

The Portuguese squad started its training this week. Deco was the last to join the group due to the Champions League final. The 22 players (Bruno Vale is on the U-21 team) did their medical exam and even started to play with the ball where both Pauleta and Ricardo Costa scored 3 times each.

The fitness coach, Darlan Scnheider, believes that the team is in a better condition them it was on the Euro04. He also said that Nuno Valente and Boa Morte will be having special attention due to their latest injuries.

The team will do its first friendly match next Saturday against Cape Green, 6 PM, local time.
