PORTUGAL VS. DENMARK- EURO 2012- RONALDO FAVOURITE TO SCORE

Portugal host Denmark tonight, in what is crucial clash for the men from the Med.
Portugal have a lot to prove in Europe having never won the competition, with their best result a runner-up finish to Greece in 2004 when hosting.
It is no secret that Portugal, while bursting with talent, are clearly not the global force they once were.
The main news leading up to today has been the much anticipated return to national duty of Christiano Ronaldo.
The Real Madrid superstar, free from injury, was made available ahead of Paulo Bento’s selection for the Selecção’s Euro 2012 qualifying earlier in the week.
Ronaldo, has for the past two years come under much criticism from the public – including supporters of Portugal- who are clearly anxious about the player’s performances and statistics at the international level.
These two countries faced each other in the World Cup 2010 qualifying, when Denmark fought to a sensational 3-2 win in Lisbon and held Portugal to a 1-1 draw at home in September of last year.
Portugal did manage to score scored four goals against Cyprus at home in their opener, however allowed a late goal for a surprise 4-4 draw.
All Portuguese eyes will be focused on the match in Porto, as it will be Bento’s first game following former manager Carlos Queiroz who was sacked last month.
