Portugal vs. Spain Preview

Portugal turning Spain's possession into transition chances is the key thing to watch on Monday.

Portugal has been dangerous all tournament when it wins the ball and gets forward fast. Four matches in, Portugal has regained possession 24 times in the final third and already has one counterattack goal. Cristiano Ronaldo finishes those chances. Bruno Fernandes drives them. Portugal showed exactly that kind of late punch against Croatia.

Spain doesn't let many teams play that way. Spain is averaging 68 minutes of possession time and 228.8 passes in the final third per match, and it still has a perfect defensive record in this tournament. Control those zones and Portugal spends the day chasing shadows. Disrupt Rodri and Pedri early, though, and this game opens up fast.

Watch the first few Portuguese ball wins in midfield. That's where the real shape of this match starts to show.
