Still gutted by yesterday's loss as we went from hitting the post to giving up a goal on the counter but is never should have come down to that. Portugal clearly played defensive tactics and fouled Croatia whenever they could 28-12 difference. The problem was the coach Cacic took to long to bring on Pjaca. Perisic was being double teamed most of the game so he was neutralized. They needed another player who could go by players like Pjaca who would have opened up the game. Very disappointing as i believe Croatia is better then Portugal but played to passive. We were playing probably the best football before the knockout stages and now were out. It sucks as this was a great chance to get to the final.
LoL that explains everything! A sore loser with no influence on his team will get exposed soon dont worry.
instead of worrying about Portugal Go and support Kuwait instead of glory hunting No wonder no one takes your guys serious .....go on and build your sand castle I hear Kuwait is hot this time of year Grande punheta
2 days rest we used tactics to win. Croatian midfield was outplaying Spain for stretches and we shut them out and we should have had a penalty during Normal time and we did it on 2 days rest. Did I mention Portugal played on 2 days rest?
I'm not worried Portugal has made at least the QF of all 7 Euros they've qualified for and we have qualified for every major tourney this century. How is Kuwait doing? You can cheer Barcelona as a glory hunter all you want, you will never be one of them. The actual Barca fans knows who is a supporter and who is a tourist looking to give their vacation money to their already rich club. They will take your money and smile but they will never claim you as one of their own Glory Hunter.
Pointless GD He is a glory hunter from Kuwait that lives for Messi Discussion with this lot is like talking football with a doorknob
Shhh don't use logic on Bigsoccer this is the place for people who don't watch or follow the sport to chime in with whatever random thoughts cross their heads.
LoL you guys are bashing me because im a barca supporter from Kuwait? hahaha you guys are pathetic. Im a guy that appreciates beautiful football and I support Barcelona because to be frank with you they play it. Portugal will never be a power house in european football. 0 trophies both at world and continental stage. atleast Kuwait won the asian cup in 1981
Right now in Portugal there is a 12 year old fisherman that only started kicking a ball a week ago, he is now better than any Kuwaiti footballer ever. We have different definitions of beautiful football, the difference is we know more.
Vida kicked Nani after his head ball was going out of bounds. Would have been a harsh pk to give. Portugal also got away with a lot of nasty fouls. Fonte stomp on Rakitic was a very bad foul but no card. 28-12 difference in fouls show how Portugal wanted to play.
Croatian coach ended in front of Croatian media in their French headquarters. http://net.hr/sport/pratite-uzivo-cacicevu-presicu-sto-ce-izbornik-reci-o-ispadanju-s-eura/ He is upset, media subjects attacked his tactical way, he made only excuses, with romantic statements that Croatia has won...with their style, Portugal could not create 20 chances like with other opponents. Also, he said, how can I be a hero after the match against Spain, now I am terrible. He asked, do you want maybe one foreign coach who will receive 2 millions of euro's per year? He mentioned that Spain or Italy will also go home. Consolations. Bunker, nine Croatian players behind the ball. Bunker, probably 10 Portuguese players behind the ball. https://cdn-hw.streamable.com/video/mp4-mobile/fgeq.mp4 Useless passes of Croatian players, in the space of midfield and defence. Four Croatian players should prevent the counter attack with Strinic who lost the ball. Dirty fouls, Renato Sanches, media says about the potential red card. http://net.hr/sport/nogomet/procuri...tarta-sanches-je-trebao-dobiti-crveni-karton/ http://net.hr/sport/nogomet/prljavs...agazio-hrvatskog-kapetana-i-prosao-bez-kazne/
It's ok Why dont you still support Greece any longer Is it because they think you arabs are all dogs Go to Barcelona and walk into a local cafe or bar with some cules that are actually from Barcelona The abuse you'd get would be comical
If "soccer fans" can't appreciate the tactical bitch slap that Portuguese coach gave Croatia then go jizz over the Barcelona tiki taka. Causal fans think it is just dudes running after a ball and if there aren't goals then the game is crap. Go watch lacrosse if you want high scoring games.
tell that to the parents of all the terminally ill children that he pays out of his pockets so that they can have operations, to try and spend a few extra years of life on this earth
Im just being Sarcastic but actually beaten twice in the same competition by greece in your own turf LoL! what a cowardly team Being a part of the most boring match in the history of the euros that suits Portugal very well I go to whatever place I want, whenever I want, dont indulge into racial comments since this is a football forum .. Now searching youtube for a video of Portugal thrashing my country 13 years ago wont change the fact that Portugal is a cowardly team that bunkers for 90 minutes. Hungary today had more chances against belgium
