Cristiano Ronaldo says that Portugal have shown that they have great mental strength.

Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo has insisted that he is not feeling any pressure ahead of the semi-final clash with Spain at Euro 2012.

The two teams go head to head in Donetsk tonight for a place in Sunday's final.

Ronaldo said that bouncing back from defeat against Germany in their first game has shown the mental strength within the Portuguese camp.

"We lost our first match and then won all the others," Ronaldo told UEFA.com. "I think that shows the great mental capacity of this team, and it didn't surprise me because I knew the goals would come.

"I am not feeling the pressure of playing Spain or any other team because it is part of my life. I will always have responsibility but pressure? Not much."

The other semi-final sees Spain take on Italy in Warsaw tomorrow.
