Portugal, with Cristiano Ronaldo in the team. Public or football lovers surely are looking forward his performance. Therefore, Ronaldo and his club (Real Madrid) is now on the top of La Liga table.

Portugal coach Paulo Bento has named his 23-man squad for this month's UEFA EURO 2012 play-off against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Four players return to the fold having missed the final Group H qualifiers against Iceland and Denmark. FC Zenit St Petersburg's Danny, Hugo Almeida of Beşiktaş JK and Real Madrid CF duo Fábio Coentrão and Pepe are all at Bento's disposal once more. "The return from injury of some important players gives us a wider range of options – but only that, nothing more," said Bento.

"I trust in every player I have, not just those, and also in the way we are working. There is always criticism, not only in defeat but also when we win. That's normal. We lost against Denmark and could not secure qualification, but since that day our thoughts have been on the games against Bosnia."

Portugal travel to Zenica on 11 November, with the Lisbon return four days later. Bento's team finished second in Group H after a 2-1 defeat in Denmark in their concluding Group H qualifier.
