Scolari issues warning
10/06/2006: Felipe Scolari expects a physical challenge against outsiders Angola on Sunday and has warned his Portugal players not to mess up.
The coach hopes the team can learn from mistakes of the past and make sure they do not underestimate their opponents who are playing in the finals for the first time. Portugal crashed out in the first round in 1986 and again in Asia in 2002 and he is determined it does not happen again.
He said: "We have to be patient and hold onto possession, because they'll want to sit back and defend and then launch counter-attacks."
