Nani dreaming of a Euro 2012 final against England
LIONS TAMER ... Nani wants to play England

NANI is dreaming of a Euro 2012 final showdown with England and his Premier League pals.

Manchester United’s Portuguese winger insists his nation is on a roll after seeing off the Czech Republic in Thursday’s 1-0 win.

Portugal await the winners of tonight’s quarter-final between Spain and France — but England are heading their way from the opposite side of the draw. Nani, who shares an Old Trafford dressing room with England stars Wayne Rooney, Ashley Young and Phil Jones, said: “Maybe we can play England in the final.

“You never know what is going to happen. Anything is possible in football but first of all we have to win our next game in the semi-finals before we start to think about that.

“We don’t mind who we play, it doesn’t matter. It was a fantastic night for us on Thursday.

“The team is very happy because the performance against the Czechs was great. We scored just one goal but the contribution of the players is clearly getting better and better.”
