Coach Ronaldo was hilarious! Got to respect the passion Smile

That’s what happens when the team captain with legendary status gets benched because of an injury, but wants to give 110% anyway to ensure the win…

Any other player, and the fourth official would reprimand him to sit down. Cool



Congrats, wilco! Thumbs Up


Pretty dreadful match, though, but Santos said so beforehand that he’d rather win with an ugly match than play beautifully and lose.
Both teams had their chances, but during the extra time, Portugal was the better team.

Goes to show that you only need to win one match during normal play to win the Cup. Grin




Edit: who had the highest score in that prediction game we held? Tongue

Congratulations to wilco, and thanks everyone for playing. wilco, I don’t think you need any reward, the championship itself is enough of an award to you Grin but here’s a nice drawing anyway:

Ronaldo is kojima of soccer, wants to be in limelight, coaching, taking shirt off, snatching cup and keeping it in his hands was all part of showoff.

Amidst all this real hero Patricio was ignored.
If it wasnt for his deadly saves, Por had been lost in first 90 mins.


In the end Por realized that in order to nullify Afiricans of France they need their own African.

Not forgotten, he did get a lot of talk for man of the match here. Uefa also naems him best keeper award for the tournament, not just because of yesterday’s match, but had a very solid tournament all around.
Other nominated players were Pepe, Raphael Guerreiro and Ronaldo. I think deserved because they did stand out but it was mostly a team effort. Fernando Santos used all players except the substitute keepers and most of them started games.

 

Party still going on. Players arrived today and were received by the President and circled town in the bus. Nobody is working today… Smile

Congratulations Wilco, I am truly happy for you.


Portugal’s victory was a sad day for many football fans. As I was in Greece it was as if I attended a funeral once Portugal scored. The whole downtown district with all its bars watching the game turned silent lol.

Anyway..a great day for all the Portuguese.


I have said it before in this thread and I said it during the game: Any team is better off without Ronaldo. Him getting substituted was truly the worst thing that could have happened to France. His performance during Euro Cup again shows while he is clearly behind Messi. Another half final and final disappearance act.

Rubbish Euro Cup is over and club football start soon. Looking forward to seeing Man U feat. Zlatan.

An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.

It’s about time. Belgium has been one of the most talented under achieving teams in the world in the last couple of major tournaments.

Pogba is the most overrated player ever. Very good, but nowhere of being worth that price tag.
