Las Palancas Negras take on Seleçao das Quinas in all Portuguese-speaking matchup.
Angola will be making its debut in the World Cup.
Portugal is playing for the fourth time. The Portuguese finished in third in 1966, but failed to advance out of the first round the other two times, including losing to both the USA and South Korea in 2002.
There will be lots of guys with one name in this match.
We'll have to see how jingoistic O'Brien and Balboa are tomorrow. Or how jingoistic people tell me they are since I'll be working during the USA-Czech match.
Hey, Angola isn't smaller than Portugal. It's got more people! By about 2 million. Of course, I think the Portuguese likely have a bigger pool of players to choose from.

As for the game, this is like men against boys. Portugal is just plain outclassing the Angola team.
