Scolari rehearses with striker Ronaldo from centre

Luis Felipe Scolari selected from Portugal, has tried in the early days of concentration in Switzerland, with at least two different locations for his star Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the test match, Brazilian electrician has come to rehearse with Cristiano Ronaldo as centre forward in place of Nuno Gomes, and flanked by Nani and Simão Sabrosa in gangs, as happened in the second training session since the team arrived to Switzerland.

However, Scolari has also resorted to the more usual position player in Madeira, not so advanced and more trail ahead, with the aim of opening the rival defences.

In defence, Scolari has some doubt. The principal of the companion of Ricardo Carvalho in the centre behind, because although Bruno Alves was holder in the last six games in the qualifying round, the Brazilian could now opt for the Madrid Pepe.

In fact, the Real Madrid player was at the centre of defence in the friendly victory last weekend at Georgia and Scolari could give continuity in the European Championship debut in next Saturday before Turkey.

In addition, on the right side, the player of Congolese origin José Bosingwa could be done with the plaza, as the Valencia Miguel Brito has not recovered from their physical problems and is unlikely to be as much as possible to deal with the first match.

The expectation that has lifted Portugal in Switzerland is high, because if their arrival was greeted by 10,000 fans Portuguese residents in this country, in the training session last Tuesday brought together up to 12,000 fans at the stadium of La Maladière to see in action to players of Luiz Felipe Scolari.
