With Helder Postiga going on to pick up an injury, it seems like the Portuguese were looking at their options, as they looked to decide just what player they could start up front. Following their search, it seems like the team went on to settle on Almeida, who is set to lead the line for the team.
Prior to the game against Spain, Almeida would have made only one appearance for the team in the competition, but he is seemingly more than willing to go all out and prove his worth on the pitch.
The striker seems to be more than satisfied with how he has been performing so far and doesn’t seem to be feeling too nervous before taking part in one of the most crucial matches of his international career.
When talking about the upcoming game, the forward went on to claim: "I am satisfied"
"This is what I have been working for. I will show my worth on the field and will give my all.”
"To win the match, we need to score goals. This is our first target. We know what Spain are worth, but we deserved to be here. We will do anything to win."
Almeida is a little worried about the Spanish defenders and their quality, but feels rather confident that his side will be able to go on and score in the game, as they look to make their way to the finals of the Euro 2012.
"http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Ramos-c33096 are great defenders, playing at the best clubs in the world," Almeida added. "I am sure it will be very difficult to face them.
"I will do my best, and if I can score a goal, that is even better. With my head or my feet. What matters is to score."
It is now up to the Portuguese team to maintain the form that they have shown in their previous games, because the match against Spain is not going to be a walk in the park for the team.
