Fifa World Cup 2006 Latest News : Portugal beats England in Third Quarter Final

Fifa World Cup 2006 Latest News:

"Portugal march on to a semi-final date with either Brazil or France after defeating England 3-1 on penalties following a last eight clash that ended goalless in Gelsenkirchen.

The match therefore became the second 2006 FIFA World Cup quarter-final to be settled on penalty kicks and, just as Jens Lehmann was Germany�s hero yesterday, so Ricardo was Portugal�s today, saving from Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher to leave Cristiano Ronaldo to stroke home the decisive kick.
