Deutsche Welle reports:

"A special effort will be made to ensure that Portugal's soccer stars don't miss home too much, particularly in their diet, when they come to Germany for the World Cup in June. The national team's top chef Helio Loureiro is banking on chicken soup and wine to recreate a familiar culinary atmosphere for Luis Figo, Cristiano Ronaldo and the rest of the team."

What a joke. How are these players homesick? Cristiano Ronaldo plays for ManU - I assume he eats his meals in England!

And Figo is now in Milan, eating Italian food.

How can these boys be homesick? Shows you how these chefs think they're too important.

Now if we were talking about Ghana or Ivory Coast, the chefs for those teams may have a point...
