I have developed a real hatred for many of these portuguese players, especially 75 year old Figo. His deliberate head butt should be enough for him to miss AT LEAST the next game. And how Kuyt played instead of VNR I will never understand. He is fucking useless. Portugal are in trouble with possibly FOUR starters out against England. Time to avenge 2004. |

Holland out way too soon 
Well everything has been sai already i think. The most frustrating thing was the 6 minutes injury time. After the first ten minutes of the second half i think of the 35 minutes we've only played something like 20. It should be 15 min. injury time if he counted right, but ofcourse no ref in the world would do that

Apparently blatter said that Ivanov should have gotten a yellow card himself

| And if you want to talk about idiot supporters, come to Canada and observe the 3rd and 4th generation Portuguese Canadian fans. Wow...half of them have never even been to Portugal (I knew many portuguese families growing up) but when soccer is on, look out, the nationalism is so over the top. |

Mark van Bommels faller was great hollywood action. Reminds me of Rivaldo Vs. Turkey 4 years ago.
The biggest unsympath was Heitinga for dont givin the ball back; Deco showed em this clearley!!!! That was a nice one!
Man, when have England players been accused of diving all the time? Does Rooney dive? Beckham? Terry? No they do not. They do not have that reputation. Figo and C. Ronaldo (plus countless Brazilians and bascially every Italian player), on the other hand, very much do. Ronaldo is booed everywhere he goes in England every time he touches the ball. He's a fucking disgrace. Ask anyone around here. And yes, diving bothers me to no end. It should annoy any fan of the game because at times, it ruins a great sport. Look at what happened to Australia today! THAT is what is wrong with football!
And I was born in England to an English dad and Canadian mom with English parents so...ugh yeah.
I don't begrudge you for cheering for Portugal. It's your country, you should cheer for them. But they acted like animals on the pitch yesterday and they cannot be defended. I can't believe Scolari is accusing Holland of instigating the problems.
Yesterday I saw Rooney throwing himself onto other players and the pitch, then moaning about unexistent faults. I also remember something similar from Terry.
It wasn't as theatral as what Figo and Ronaldo have done in some ocasions, but it shows that altho nobody really likes it, trying your best to get fouls for your team is a part of the game and everybody does it to some extent.
Can't say I was exactly proud of some attitudes our players had yesterday. Starting by Nuno Valente who was causing trouble everywhere. Costinha was an idiot. Figo's incident with Van Bommel was also ugly, and he did exagerate a bit on the elbowing by Boulahrouz, but I give him a little bit of a break since these two guys annoyed me to end during the entire game. Nevermind being on the pitch.
Yet on the other hand they were absolutely fantastic on what they gave to the game, on the huge concentration they shown by perfectly defending the lead without ever abandoning the will to counter-attack. The determination some of our players put in some tackles (to the ball) was brilliant. You can bet I was proud of that.
If Scolari really said that, well it obviously has its touch of bias, but Holland did instigate some problems as we did and as the ref did. It was all a huge snowball effect where one thing lead to the other, then to the other, then a bad ref decision, then a violent tackle, then a retaliation and so on. It's undeniable we have our responsabilities but I partly understand their actions as the game was extremely tense, dramatic and frustrating at times.
I'd never say that Portuguese players aren't skilled; they are! Eusebio was probably in the top 5 best players of all time and, as much as I might not like them, Ronaldo and Figo are also both great. I just wish they'd reexamine their attitude and cut out some of the theatrics for which they are known. It's kinda sad for Deco. I like him and Valente the most on Portugal but he won't be able to play on Saturday but his cards were justified. Maniche's goal was stellar too and they did defend well...but Holland I think blew two or three clear chances.
Rooney was just more frustrated at playing up front on his own than anything and wasn't bitching about the lack of fouls called for him, but one or two that were called on him. He's a wild bugger and will one day get himself into trouble. But I just do not see England players ever having reputations as divers and I never see people accusing them of it either. Sure, it goes on from all sides and is a part of the game, but some players take it to the far extreme.

| Originally posted by raveed Englands world cup chances will go up in smoke if figo did that because figo'l crack his skull since rooney's built like a rock and then rooney'l proceed to break the rest of him which is exactly what portugal would want since england without rooney and owen could be a disaster since Mr. Twig will then come on. rooney's a hot headed player who wants to score everytime he gets the ball. His style of play is to run at the players and take them on so obviously hes going to get tackled a lot. Whether its a fair tackle or not, hes going to get pissed of because he didnt get an attempt on goal and thats his nature. Besides the arsenal game 2 seasons ago, i dont recall rooney ever taking a blatant dive. |
