Congratulations to France and Brett.
Errr, thank you but I have nothing to do with this match, lol :D Moreover I'm half portuguese so half of me is sad (well... not really, but just as much as I'm not "happy" either, that's just cool...)

They were the better team. Portugal didn´t show ways to break their tight after-penalty-defence-tactic.
I'm not quite sure... Against Brazil, France was really amazing and way better, but here, I thought Portugal was better and was expecting them to score any minute, especially in the last minutes where the french guys were exhausted (hey, they're an "old team of grand-fathers" after all). The penalty is honest (the guy kicks Henry in the calf) but this portuguese guy diving EVERYTIME the ball is 3m around him was pretty annoying and he should have got a yellow card (card ? errr, thingy...).

Anyway I really hope France beats Italy (!!!), but I think this match against Portugal will leave some marks on them and I'm quite afraid about this... Also, I'm sure the tactic of the italian team will be to kick Zidane in the knees as soon as possible ! ;)
It's incredible they made it to the finale anyway, especially since everybody thought they wouldn't even pass the first tour.
 
Agreed. (edit: about Brett's comment, not kev:p )
On a side note, that Ronaldo is really a cheater... Respect to the other portugese, they played well.

France were definitely better against Brazil, but at the same time I think they're a smart enough and experienced enough (polite way of saying old :p) team to see that although Portugal can move the ball about and get up the field, they just can't finish - Pauleta has looked awful through the whole tournament, and the attacking midfielders apparently have so little confidence in their finishing that they go down every time they get in or near the box. If every dive had been a shot instead, the chances are that they would have got something - but they didn't have any faith in their shooting. I think France were happy to sit back and soak it up a bit because they were fairly confident Portugal wouldn't score.

And yeah, Ronaldo's diving has been awful - if he ever plays in England again (which seems doubtful), he's going to get absolutely pummeled.

A team like Portugal that can´t break a well organized defence life the french one can´t be world campion but ii can´t agree more with you except about Ronaldo not playing anymore in England. I remind you the greek player that scored the winning goal for greece against portugal in the euro 2004 final signed for benfica the following year.

i hope france wins. zidane deserves a great goodbye. Also italy way of playing makes me sleepy. :)

I hope you guys are enjoying the world cup. Personally, I don't understand what the big fucking deal is ..... :heh: :heh: :heh:

Yeah.. i have the same with NFL.. i do understand all the rules, i just dont get it, i mean, all those yellow flags, replays, it's supposed to be 4 times 15 minutes no? why does it always end up in a three hour match? :lol:

I think every male in europe get's and understands soccer, females tend to dislike it or only like it when their country is playing... offside is still a difficulty factor for them though.. :p

Frank'nfurter allready said it, let get some predictions out:

Im betting france wins, 3 - 1...

What do we win? a weekend with Andy would be pretty cool! Nitro get in here and take a guess!!:Smokin:
 
Oooh, a soccer thread. I had no idea.

I've been disenchanted with the tournament ever since Australia played Croatia. The refferee lost control of the match, and Australia suffered as a result. The match against Italy was a new level of poor professionalism though. A penalty with 6 seconds left on the clock? Please...

I'm also a tad disappointed that Germany got knocked out in the final minutes of extra time. It was their own fault though. They didn't have the strikers to capitalize on the scoring opportunities they had. Frings messed up big-time, and Ballack's performance for the entire tournament has been mediocre at best.

At this point I don't care who wins. I hate all the remaining sides :)

i'm with ya there... i don't care for NFL either. unless i'm personally playing in a game i couldn't care less. watching people i don't personally know competing for a shiny cup bores me to tears. most of these guys on the pro teams would never hang out with you or your friends and they would make fun of you for your hair/clothes/music/etc. if they even bothered to acknowledge your existence. fuck organized/televised sports... get of your ass and get outside and play. ;)

The same could be said about musicians, should we stop listening to music?

you think music, an art form, is the same as sports?...

Music: the ART of combining vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) to produce beauty of form, harmony, and EXPRESSION of EMOTION.

Sports: activities involving physical exertion and athletic skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for ranking status.

i feel bad for you if you really do. i'm sure you don't and you just didn't think that comment through though. music isn't a sport... when musicians treat it as such it always suffers.

Portugal lost because of an non existing penalty but both teams played well...
i also didn’t like Ronaldo that much but in this game he played for the team not for him self... i like it when they speak about them in the 3rd person... like " Ronaldo is going to do the best for the team" etc etc etc :rock: :Puke:

But i think that he is a great player better then the shity roonie ass.... but he plays to much for him an not for the team... lets see if he learned anything ...

By the way i hope italy wins 2-0 Love italian girls :) and the ppl are much nicer then francius... :P
