Which striker will be on Queiroz's call up list for the next game Portugal v. Sweden, March 28, 2009? Are Nuno Gomes and Helder Postiga off the list for now?
These Portugal strikers had bad luck today in the game Sporting 3-2 Benfica.
Nuno Gomes- still not in the starting lineup. Quique put him on the 79th minute to replace Ruben Amorim.
Helder Postiga- bad luck. The Portuguese striker that's in best shape in the Portuguese league was in the starting lineup! However, he got injured on the left knee during the game and had to be replaced in the 27th minute. After the game, Sporting's medical department said that it's unlikely for Postiga to be fit for this wednesday's Champions League game against Bayern Munich.
