I agree that the Drogba injury doesn't completely end their chances of progressing, it just might force them to be more defensive

they are still going to have a solid defensive spine with Eboue, Toure, Toure and Zokora

and with Kalou, Gervinho and Keita they still have some players who can create chances and score themselves

It helps Portugal (and Brazil) no doubt, but its still a very tough group
