Futsal semis include Iberian derby

Holders Spain and hosts Portugal will meet in an Iberian derby after Italy and Russia have a rematch of their 2005 semi-final in the last-four schedule.

Holders Spain and hosts Portugal will go head to head on Friday in a fascinating Iberian derby while Italy and Russia will have a rematch of their 2005 semi-final as the last-four lineup was confirmed.

Trio join Russia
Only Russia were ensured of a semi-final place before Wednesday but they slipped to second place in Group B as Spain defeated them 4-1. Portugal then sealed their progress with a 3-0 defeat of Romania but ended runners-up to Italy in Group A thanks to the Azzurri's 4-0 win against the Czech Republic.

Hosts play second
Both semi-finals will be at the Multiusos Gondomar Coração de Ouro on Friday, with the first at 18.00 local time (19.00CET) when Russia will hope for a repeat of their 4-2 success against Italy two years ago. Two hours later debutant semi-finalists Portugal will hope for a first-ever competitive win against their neighbours.
