"Real" Madrid's attacking leader Cristiano Ronaldo stated that in the first European Championship match Portugal can defeat the German national team. These two national teams met in the quarterfinals of the 2008 European Championship, but back then Joachim Low's team came out victorious. "Now we have time to prepare for the start of the championship, so the coach should set up the right tactics during this time to help us beat Germany," Ronaldo said. The match between Germany and Portugal will take place on June 9th. In Group B, the Netherlands and Denmark will also compete.
