Iv'e just got back from Portugal having seen 2 England games and the Germany v Holland game. No trouble at all that I saw although pretty rowdy/loud at times.
The Portuguese were great to us wherever we went. I rellly hope that those based in this country are not given a hard time just because their team won a game of football.
The only place I felt slightly uneasy was in Madeira, oddly enough. Went to watch the Portugal v England game on a big screeen in the main square in Funchal - very partisan crowd and someone got arrested after what seemed like a fairly serious diturbance in the crowd. I don't think any English people were involved. We decided to watch the second half in the hotel and snuck out at half time
