A few changes and Portugal win this - doing well in the wide areas

 

[clubchamp98]

Agreed.
Conspiracy about Morata big money moves been about money laughing

Yes is he really good enough for one of the worlds best teams?

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Well Ronaldo is just a wasted body out there , just wondering around the place , players are just bypassing him - offering nothing , they bring on Jota or Ramos and they can easily win this

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Hugely disappointing game. Forget extra time, just take it straight to penalties.

 

[Wabinez]

What a dire second half.

Just eliminate both teams and put Germany through

If England applied the same principle that Portugal are in playing Ronaldo, Beckham would be in the starting line up!

Booking for Pallinha pathetic from Oliver.
He won the ball cleanly.
Maybe they should have a panel to have a look at bookings like this really poor from Oliver.
Players missing semi finals because of a decision like that.!

Love that the BBC show the extra time minutes whereas ITV show it as an added time to 90.
Small victories and all that

 

[Arthur Wedge]

How he is still on the pitch clearly is only because Martinez doesn’t have the balls to sub him - their bench is loaded with attacking talent , must be frustrating for them to know that no matter what they do he won’t be dropped or replaced

Why didn’t Dembele hit that !?

Predicted it.

If we thought England were poor at hitting the goals then these are are little better though I feel Ronaldo will win it for them yet. Still has that magic 'movement' that gives the chance.... just not taking it, sadly.

As ridiculous as this is to me, I'm actually growing to like .................................... Pepe!
What a rock, and, apparently, he's older than seven teams who competed in this tournament!

 

[Arthur Wedge]

What a chance for Mendes ( who has been superb all game )

 

[Wabinez]

Vive la France!

 

[Pin-seeker]

agreed take away extra time,straight to penalties.

It’s like the Portugal players won’t pass to him.
He’s made some good runs but the ball is not coming.
There playing a man down as he’s out the game.
There for the pens!

 

[clubchamp98]

agreed take away extra time,straight to penalties.

Golden goal for me make them win it.!

Ronaldo gathering the troops after slotting his Pen....... great team player

 

[Pin-seeker]

Nah not for me,made teams sit back & play for pens.
