    I really wish Ronaldo wasn't a diver - he's so exciting to watch, but so hard to root for

    The ref is doing a good job, it would be a real mess if he gave out a card for every single thing that could be considered a foul by others

    On R Carvalho's yellow the Univision color guy says "IF they go through, he won't play". I guess he forgot the 3rd place game.

    If C. Ronaldo spent more time on his feet than on his face, he might be able to help his team.

    Did you see that tv shot of Barthez? He looked like a deer staring into headlights.

    I thought it was a red too, but I guess the ref didn't want to seal the deal. Im laughing at the french who are nervous right now. you can't be serious fellas can you?

    Portugal.. will.. not.. win. I hate bashing my own team but they are playing worse than france and can't make a golden opportunity. They have a case of the Lampard.

    I liked Portugal at the beginning of the tournament, now I'm screaming at them in fury every time the pull of those blatant and horrific dives. Disgrace to the game, utter disgrace.

    i agree here. as the ref, you have a choice. either you book everyone to try to get them to stop (which we all know they won't in this day an age) or you just let them keep flopping around as much as they want, and just ignore their *sses. which i think is even more effective cos it keeps the game going and the dudes have no choice but to get up and back to playin.
