Euro 2016

From Twitter, highlights of Harry Kane tonight:

Just saw this friggin hilarious and true. :lmao:
 
It was a poor game.

I feel that Wales gave Portugal too much respect, respect that they don't really deserve. They should have gone at them from the off, even if it involved more long balls towards Robson-Kanu and Bale.
 
Can we just pause for a moment and give a standing ovation to the refereeing in this cup.


Fucking A man!
 
Seconded. The refereeing has been at a higher quality than the football itself most of the time. Loved seeing the side-to-side shoulder barge come back into acceptance and just a generally more physical style of play without it being dirty.

The two biggest blunders I can think of effectively cancelled each other out - soft Spain penalty award and then the Croatian goalie being well off his line when he made the save.
 
What game where you watching?

The game where no Portuguese player other than Ronaldo was doing anything, and the game where Wales showed how surprisingly mediocre they are without Ramsey. It made for a lame match.

Tonight's match, on the other hand...

Remember Bray Wyatt/Roman Reigns last year's "Anyone but you..." line? That's exactly how I feel about Portugal at this tournament.

It's more like anyone but Ronaldo and Pepe for me. But yeah, same general sentiment.
 
Aye Dowdsy buddy how you been?

I had Croatia finishing third,

:/

Yeh not too bad chief, internet has been extremely shitty lately so not been keeping up with WWE that much. Bought myself a vaper to try and cut down on the cigs so hopefully that works! Hows things with you?

I thought Croatia would coast past Portugal to be honest and the way Portugal have been playing, I wouldn't bet against them getting a fluky early goal against France then just shutting up shop.

Things cool man, music been doing good now. Heading to Europe I think by November for a few gigs.

Man this is like Greece Euro 2004 again. Maybe slightly more excitin.
 
Question has to be asked; With regards to Messi and Ronaldo... have we seen the greatest double turn in football in the past few weeks culminating tonight?


I am a huge Messi fan and always will be, but with his international retirement and tax troubles, alongwith Ronaldo's Portugal underdog story, it does seem that Football's Face/Heel narrative has changed with regards to the two titans.


Your thoughts, guys?

Nah, no mather as you portray CR7 and no mather how much he gave to football and even charity he still would be hated a lot and Messi would still be loved eventhough he acted like a little kid after a lost game and retired and cheated on taxes. In terms of wrestling Ronaldo is more like better version of Reigns who people love to hate. No mather what he does people just hate his guts and think he is just poser. Which is shame because in terms of accomplishments and game overall last few years he is best.

Shame that he didnt play though, Payet took care of that. Although thanks to France and their missed chances they did somehow managed to get past it and win. Wasnt the best game like all in Championship so far. And have more feeling that Portugal got his luck back from 2004 rather that they deserved it by play. But its football, ball is round.
 
CR 7's will to play and how much it means to him. You can't teach that.

That being said, he should not even be in the top 3 player of this Euro. He has grossly underperformed.

Good on ya Portugal.
 
After years of disliking Ronaldo I actually warmed to him last night. There's something about seeing a grown man like him sat on the ground, crying his eyes out, moth-on-face, dreams crumbling around him, that endear you to someone.
 
International football is rubbish and just getting worse. There was exactly one entertaining game of football this tournament and it was when one side smashed another.

If you didn't enjoy Hungary vs Portugal, then you're actually just not a football fan.
 
Glad that Portugal won. True, they won only one game in 90 minutes but they didn't lose at all, so there's that.

It still makes me laugh when people blame the lack of a winter break on England's fortunes in international competitions, because no other teams had players that play in the EPL either.
