Robbie Keane is getting in position as we prepare to get underway in Dublin.
And Phil Townsend, UEFA’s managing director of communications, begins the presentation by recalling the feats of the four countries who've made it to the semi-finals.
And now Equal Game Ambassador Gary Messett has joined Townsend on stage who will be helping with the draw.
He's joined by recently retired Robbie Keane who will also help to make the draw.
I think the Nations League has been a huge success. Playing for your country is always great but it just gives it a bit more of a competitive edge. It's been great.
And finally Giorgio Marchetti, UEFA’s Deputy General Secretary, is introduced to explain the draw.
Fernando Gomes, President of the Portuguese Football Federation:
It's a big honour to the Portuguese Federation and for the country. Everyone knows that from the beginning Portugal was involved in creating the competition and for us it's fantastic to organise this tournament in the cities of Porto and Guimarães.
