How Portugal has managed to reach its fourth semifinal appearance in the last five continental competitions is something of a mystery. Portugal has yet to beat an opponent in 90 minutes of regulation play after five matches at Euro 2016. Portugal's captain Cristiano Ronaldo, right, will come up against Wales' defender and captain Ashley Williams in the semi-final on July 6. While semifinal rival Wales, along with Germany and France, have all impressed with big wins to deservedly reach this stage, Portugal has only joined them after barely squeaking through each round. “I would be bothered if I was at home and they were saying Portugal had played well but was no longer at the Euro,” Santos said.
