-------------------------------------
Germany – Team Review
Germany enters this Nations League semifinal on home soil with a strong recent record, losing only once in their last 17 international matches. Under Julian Nagelsmann, the squad has found more structure and attacking fluidity.
🔹 Key Players: Florian Wirtz (influential playmaker), Leon Goretzka (box-to-box presence), Marc-André ter Stegen (reliable in goal).
🔹 Injury Concerns: Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz, and Antonio Rüdiger are confirmed absentees, which affects depth in attack and defense.
🔹 Strengths: Possession control, disciplined pressing, depth in midfield.
🔹 Weaknesses: Occasional defensive lapses, particularly against fast counterattacks.

Portugal – Team Review
Portugal qualified for the semifinals with dominant group-stage performances and a resounding 5–2 win over Denmark in the quarterfinals. Coach Roberto Martínez has implemented an attacking system that blends youth and experience effectively.
🔹 Key Players: Cristiano Ronaldo (still effective), Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, Vitinha, and rising star João Neves.
🔹 Recent Form: Undefeated in 14 of their last 15 matches; attacking firepower is among the strongest in Europe.
🔹 Strengths: Midfield creativity, long-range shooting, and transitional play.
🔹 Weaknesses: Defense occasionally shaky under pressure, reliance on veteran forwards.
