Germany World Cup

24. Portugal

The one thing Portugal did well was pass the ball. Their defense was atrocious, considering Pepe was out for 1.5 matches and they lost Fabio Coentrao to a hamstring injury. Cristiano Ronaldo shouldn’t have even played on his knee injury if that’s the kind of performance he was going to give.
