Portugal forward Nani said on Tuesday that "confidence is so high" following their win over Croatia in the round of 16 at Euro 2016, but wasn't underestimating quarter-final opponents Poland, saying "it's not just any team that can play against Germany and do well".

SOUNDBITE: (English) Nani, Portugal forward (On team spirit)
"Yeah the spirit of the team is fantastic. Of course after a win in the game we wanted so much, we wanted to win one game to give (to) our fans. After this game the spirit is great, all the players are happy, the staff. The motivation, the confidence is so high and this was very important for us, this victory was so important to keep on our dream and be strong."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Nani, Portugal forward (On Poland)
"What I can say is that I watch one game, Poland against Germany it was a great game, it was a very tough game for both teams and when you see a team like Poland control some part of the game with Germany it's something you must be wary (about), something you must be focussed, because it's not just any team that can play against Germany and do well."
