Nov. 13, 2008-Queiroz will announce the Portugal call-up list for Brazil - Portugal on Nov. 19, 2008


Nine more days for the friendly Brazil - Portugal on November 19, 2008.

Brazil's coach Dunga already announced the Brazil call-up list 6 days ago. Carlos Queiroz will announce the Portugal team until Thursday, November 13, 2008.

Forwards-

I doubt Helder Postiga will be on the list. There's still the issue of whether Brazilian-born Liedson from Sporting CP will ever make it to the Portugal team, the Seleccao. Will Queiroz call another "luso-brasileiro" in the Portugal team? After Deco and Pepe is there space for another one?

Midfielders-

Quaresma will be on the list. Even though Queiroz didn't call him up for the first 2 games he was in charge because Quaresma was waiting for the pre-season transfer talk to end.

Defenders-

Bosingwa, and Bruno Alves will be on the list. Pepe was injured. Antunes played 90 minutes today in an important home game Lecce 1-1 AC Milan.

- I'm glad this friendly is against Brazil. That means Spanish TV Univision or Telemundo will broadcast the game and mention the result on their sports news shows. I'm ready to record Fox Sports noticias on Fox Sports en Espanol.
