[ChesterDave]

hahaha such bitter cunts on ITV and in here by the looks of the thread.

Aye, ****e teams get to the finals of the Euro championships :roll:

Portugal have been ****ing ****e this tournement in every game they have played. Every one of them.

Portugal have been ****ing ****e this tournement in every game they have played. Every one of them.

They're not ****e. That's a ****ing ludicrous assertion.

Sure they may not be the next incarnation of Brazil 1970 but they're very effective when it comes to tournament football.

They were in pot 1 and finished 3rd in a group of 4. The winner of their group would have been ranked 6th of 6th out of all group winners. The last placed team in their group was the second worst in the whole tournement based on results.

Despite that they could only get out of the group stages by being the 3rd best 3rd place team out of 6. In a group that contained Iceland and Hungary.

They then took 118 minutes to have a single shot on target against Croatia.

Bored their way to a penalty shout our victory against Poland, and finally beat Wales - a team who at the start of the competition were regarded as massive outsiders

If they were controlling games and winning like Italy I would agree with you. They aren't though. They are deadful.

They're in the final, doubt they'll care what anyone thinks about how they got there. No chance they are winning it though which provides us all another chance to have a laugh at Ronaldo crying.

OR

They were Unbeaten in the group stages and have progressed to the final while conceding a single goal in 3 knockout games.

Their record this century in tournament football is surpassed only by the absolute elite.

[Fosterbloke]

Today proves why Joe Allen won't be an automatic starter for Liverpool in a Klopp side.

Squad player or move on.

They ****ing well should have been unbeaten in their group as top seed against those opponents.

And Poland scored against them in the second minute of the quarter final.

[danperkins]

Portugal have been ****ing ****e to be fair. Wales looked exhausted, Allen and Bale looked burned out. Unfortunately missing Ramsey and Davies was too much of a loss to their side. Fabulous tournament from Wales though.

Surely the Germans or France would really be fancying their chances vs Portugal. Gomez out is a huge loss for Germany though, was a good focal point for them.

[Fosterbloke]

I can see France shading it with another worldie from Payet.

Fake Ronaldo to score in the final to confirm that international football is ****.

[danperkins]

Roanldo has been absolutely **** this tournament, although the bloke still manages to score regardless. Nani has been Portugal's best player IMO, which is weird.

But I think France will beat Germany tonight and I'd fancy them against Portugal.

[spud_gun]

Dan, are you Welsh?

[RichC]

Perkins is Irish

Ronaldo and the Portuguese side have been very average and quite lucky but you need that in tournament football.

There is no way they've played well at all but that's the way of it sometimes.

[danperkins]

Dan, are you Welsh?

Irish mate but the missus is Welsh.

[spud_gun]

That's explains a lot
