On the other hand, Portugal was exactly the opposite as they failed to create chances and struggled to a lackluster draw against the Ivory Coast in their opening match. <\/p>\n<p>Portugal will be looking to score on the North Koreans as many times as possible, rather than just take away the three points.   <!-- Affiliate Code Do NOT Modify--><a href=\"http:\/\/affiliate.sportsinteraction.com\/processing\/clickthrgh.asp?btag=a_3435b_713\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliate.sportsinteraction.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_3435b_767\" border=\"0\" alt=\"World Cup Betting\" width=\"300\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><!-- End affiliate Code--><\/p>\n<p>Two of the world\u2019s most fearsome strikers, Cristiano Ronaldo and Didier Drogba, each unable to breakthrough as Portugal and the Ivory Coast played to a hard-fought 0-0 tie on Tuesday in their World Cup opener. Portugal coach Carlos Queiroz blamed his team\u2019s failure to create clearer chances on a defensive opponent. <\/p>\n<p>He also suggested FIFA may have bent its eligibility rules for Drogba because of the significance of a player hugely popular in Africa taking the field. While not a popular opinion, he may be right, though it doesn\u2019t stand as an excuse for a failure to score. <\/p>\n<p>North Korea\u2019s defense played valiantly and earned the side some much-needed respect, but still Brazil\u2019s offense was able to get it done as the Samba Kings downed North Korea 2-1 in its opening World Cup match on Tuesday. <\/p>\n<p>Ji Yun Nam kept it close for North Korea in the 89th with a left-footer from inside. Robinho was about the only Brazilian able to create opportunities, taking a host of opportunities starting with his first chance just two minutes in, but the playmaker failed to get a shot off as North Korea\u2019s An Yong Hak stole the ball.  <\/p>\n<p>The defensive-minded North Koreans played with only Japan-based Jong Tae Se in attack, but he alone was able to cause some problems for the Brazilian back line. <\/p>\n<p>Expect them to remain an enigma and use the lack of information on the team to its advantage, remaining a sleeper pick in this group. <\/p>\n<p>Portugal will find itself locked in a battle with North Korea just as the Brazilians did, but unfortunately will not come out as lucky.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Portugal vs. North Korea Free Pick<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Therefore I expect this one to end in a 1-1 draw.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THINK YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN OUR SOCCER EXPERTS?<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/affiliate.sportsinteraction.com\/processing\/clickthrgh.asp?btag=a_3435b_713\" rel=\"nofollow\">PLACE A BET TODAY WITH OUR OFFICIAL WORLD CUP BETTING PARTNER SPORTSINTERACTION.COM!!!
