Match 56 (R16) - Spain v Portugal - PBP Thread [R]

LOL Ronaldo.

 

both teams might as well stop diving.. this ref isn't buying it

 

I agree with the announcers. Dumb move by Ronaldo to sit there on the ground in protest just because he didn't draw a call.

 

Spain looks like its in control of the game more the potrugal, but portugal has looked far more dangerous on the opponents pitch. Could easily be 2-0 portugal by now.

 

Thank goodness the mighty Euro powers of Spain and Portugal are saving the day from the aimless negativity and imprecision of the likes of Paraguay and Japan.

 

Oh, ho. Spain gets lucky again. If only he had drink a bit more milk as a kid.

 

What an excellent cross.

 

LOL. I know right? I hope they are just jittery or something because is ugly to watch so far. We have plenty of time left to play for them to pick it up.

 

Anyone else find this ref very inconsistent?

 

Can't be, the freaky ball doesn't allow for good crosses

 

The imprecision is about the same, but this has been a far better game. More quality on the pitch, fairly more entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Funny game so far.

 

Portugal has been the better team. Spain has done nothing but pass - pass - pass - pass- lose ball

 

3 minutes left.

 

Portugal have been the better team here.

 

Don't know about better, but they definitely had the better chances.

 

Whatever helps you feel superior.

In other news, the footing seems to be bothering a few of the players. Seen some uncharacteristic slips.

 

This match could have ended 4-0 for portugal when going into the half. Not sure if Spain's got some good luck or portugal bad. But portugal had a ton of close chances.

 

My boss split the head with a machete. For the record, pig brains were pink and white.


Anyways, the goals will come in the second half it appears.

 

Basically...except for the first 5 minutes, this has been Portugals game

 

I'll never figure out why del bosque didnt take senna because busquets is atrocious

 

wow Spain are terrbile right now

 

Its crystal clear that torres is not fit

 

Today has been a day for nearness. We await consummation.
