Portugal announce squad for upcoming set of games

Portugal have announced their squad for their final pair of upcoming games for a spot at next summers World Cup in North America. Portugal have a comfortable five point lead over second place Hungary and two points in their final two games will automatically clinch a place at next years tournament. Portugal will travel to Ireland on November 13 before wrapping up their group with a final game at home against Armenia on November 16. Portugal will look to avoid a trip up in their final two contests and hope that their final group game at the Dragao in Porto will be more of an exhibition then a competitive game.
