Previewing Saturday’s Action

Netherlands vs. Denmark - 12:00 p.m. ET

While neither squad has won this tournament in over 20 years, this is a battle that will not only be important for the group stage, but for the rounds moving forward.

Both the Netherlands and Denmark have great units, but they will need the luck on their side if they want to make it past the powerhouses later in the tournament.

As good as the Netherlands can be, this game is really a test to see where the top contending Denmark team is in their progression. This match has battle written all over it—this will be no friendly.

Germany vs. Portugal - 2:45 p.m. ET

In what should be the most exciting game of the day, the tough German squad will have to bring their best if they want to get past Cristiano Ronaldo, Nani and the Portugal National team.

While the Portuguese do have a few of the most talented players in the world, the German team is a well-oiled machine that is built for these tournaments.

Ronaldo is all about himself, so his allegiance to multiple leagues will have him failing to make a huge impact—just like he failed to make a serious dent in 2008.
