Portugal struggled to reach the UEFA World Cup play-offs, but this hasn't stopped head coach Carlos Queiroz from being full of confidence ahead of the crucial games against Bosnia-Herzegovina. The former Real Madrid gaffer is even looking at South Africa already and has claimed his team can go a long way.
"We made a few errors early on in qualifying. But since those admittedly dark times, the team has got back on track and played good football," said Quiroz on fifa.com.
"More than that, I'd say brilliant football. Our team was fantastic in the games against Denmark, Sweden and Hungary. It was then we showed that we're hitting top form at the moment.
"I think the hardest part for us has been qualifying. If we qualify, Portugal will definitely be firm contenders to win South Africa 2010, or at least finish on the podium. I'm 100 per cent convinced we'll be there. I've got no doubts whatsoever."
