In fairness to Portugal they gave Wales nothing
― Neptune Bingo (Michael B), Wednesday, 6 July 2016 20:53 (eight years ago) link
And have given the watching millions nothing too.

I'm aware of that

Yellows are wiped after the quarterfinals so there was no chance of Cron picking one up that would ban him.

he had already been booked in the game

Portugal the worst team in a final since Greece surely
this means they'll win...
if only Croatia etc.

Apparently Palace had more players in the semis than anyone else except Bayern?

Portugal kind of remind me of Germany at WC 2002. Really not good enough to be going as far as they did, sneaking wins over Paraguay, USA and S Korea. And they were finally beaten, so there's hope.
― Michael Jones, Thursday, 7 July 2016 09:58 (eight years ago) link
There were only 3/4 players in that side who were anywhere near memorable. Oliver Kahn and Ballack were the driving force behind that team, except Ballack was suspended for the final and Ronaldo will be there.

I was really hoping for a second yellow and a dismissal for CR last night.

France look confident

good craic so far, needs at least one goal before they figure each other out

not playing Kante looks a mistake

xxxp yeah, they came out firing and now have barely touched the ball

don't think I heard Giroud's name mentioned until about 30 seconds ago
― Pat Umunna Glass (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 7 July 2016 19:33 (eight years ago) link
I can see one mistake + counter attack and France are in
― ^ 諷刺 (ken c), Thursday, 7 July 2016 19:33 (eight years ago) link
given the way the game is going, France would be much better off with Martial up there. I don't think he's ever played as a striker for the national team though
― Number None, Thursday, 7 July 2016 19:34 (eight years ago) link
Muller is so shit

Henry something of an expert on deliberate handball.
― They could have been Stackridge. (Tom D.), Thursday, 7 July 2016 19:51 (eight years ago) link
That was a definite penalty.
― ewar woowar (or something), Thursday, 7 July 2016 19:54 (eight years ago) link
It was. Another dumb penalty conceded by Germany
― Neptune Bingo (Michael B), Thursday, 7 July 2016 19:54 (eight years ago) link
never a penalty in a million years. Handball decisions have been utterly out of control in the past few years

Hear that last Michael B post spoken by Tony Blair.
I didn't think it was a penalty, think Schweinsteiger gets rolled slightly by Era which is why his arms are in that position, but seen them given.
― suffeeciant attreebution (aldo), Thursday, 7 July 2016 20:03 (eight years ago) link
Needless to say, Danny Baker thinks it's celebrity ref ego that gave it.
I don't give a shit that it was Schweinsteiger. I just think it's lame for a big match to turn on such an innocuous moment. And there are way too many penalties given for handball now

don't have a proper opinion on this pen not least cos I went to the shop at halftime but last sentence fully otm
