That was a great goal. But all three games have been very bad at actual *football*, up till now.

when he was good for two weeks that time
this match is an actual disgrace

Both teams see a win as a bye to maybe even the final so no wonder they're playing it safe.

Nani is probably the most misunderstood footballer of the modern era
they'll miss him when he's gone

yeahhe's a sporting lisbon trained winger who was defensively good enough to play in a 442also, has been a good player for maybe nine years now which is pretty good for a winger given how they get burned out or lose confidencenot a world class player or whatever but he's had a good career

Portugal is a fucking disgrace to football. Croatia failing Holland style: able to play the best football but failing miserably.

it's not hugely surprisingly that a player who would rather do a rabona than cross with his left foot near the byline might toe punt a pass to another player he had just been looking at

nothing they did today came close to 'best football' they were brillant in the earlier stages but that was a let down.
