That has to be one of the best games i have seen in a long time.

The better team won.

Portugal played very poorly, england were all over them with 10 men. How can anyone say the better team won? More like the better goalkeeper.

I'm looking forward to the penalty shoot-out!

I had a couple of pennies on Portugal to win on penalties @ 7-1! Awesome!

That game was weak on every level. Portugal weren't playing that well, had little chances and lack of decent shots on goal, but we still couldn't beat them.

Real fans would congratulate him on his team winning (assuming he supported portugal) alas, the England "fans" would kick the crap out of him, which pretty much is what ruins football for me.

Roll on the Ashes.

Not really a real opposition fan would be gracious in victory, there's no excuse.

Rooney really is a pillock. If it wasn’t for him England may have scored another penalty.

I suppose it was his destiny for that thug to be sent off.

So did rooney get sent off for the stamp or the push?

cant do nothing about it when portugal have a good keeper at pens ,,
as for rooney, the so called recovery from the injury made no diference , he played bad all 3 matchs .

Agree with all of that, except I don't think Hargreaves will get slated, only a fool would say he played badly there.

Hi Carlos_S - Meet the English Tabloids :rolleyes:

I hope your destiny is to go outside and start cheering for portugal and run into 50 England fans.

I hope its your destiny that England go out of the world cup...oh they already did...UNLUCKY!

Royality · 1 Jul 2006 at 19:03

It's so hard to take losing, I don't think I ever believed England would win though.

I spose the best idea is to get drunk and be happy.

that's won't happen because it's on betfair

(don't bet on Portugal winning... you'll be lucky to get past the semis)

Meh.. what do you think a team with a solid set of strikers and 11 men for 90 minutes will do to portugal... you're past the Mickey mouse teams now son

The last time I checked, their goalkeeper was part of the team, thats why people say that.

Pity he was'nt on our team! :rolleyes:

Christiano Ronaldo off to Madrid now? more likely than before this game.

I'm the opposite, last few tournaments I have either been gutted or felt like smashing the place up.

Today = virtually no feeling at all, just 'oh well...'

Would've been the stamp, except there wasn't one. He just happened to step on the other player, he couldn't do much else considering he was being pulled about like a rag doll by the two Portuguese players.

William · 1 Jul 2006 at 19:04

Pity, but a fantastic last 75 minutes. And we lost a lottery, not a game of skill imho.

As to Rooney, it was debatable to if he did mean to do what he did.

For me, well I am going to start on supporting my second favourite team, Germany.

*ducks to avoid cinderblocks*
