Let the fun begin. Angola/Portugal!

This was another low scoring affair as Portugal scored very early but only once to beat Angola 1-0. Angola looked fragile on offense and was unable to mount any kind of real attack. However, the heavily favored Portugese team had trouble producing points, and missed a few golden scoring opportunities.

Final Score: Portugal 1 - Angola 0
