Another game ruined by the referee. Shocking decisions all around. Truly dire BBC punditry. Germany flatter to deceive.
 
Can someone please GIF that Ronaldo free kick that hit Lahm :lol:
 
nani was easily portugal's best player considering the circumstances. Eder worked hard. Ronaldo being ronaldo when things dont go his way. A game to forget for portugal though.
 
Dind't expect such an easy game for Germany. Spain and Portugal sucked in the first games big time. Germany were good but it's too early to make any predictions. Müller :cool:
 
some good competition for the golden boat

muller - 3
neymar - 2
robben - 2
van persie - 2
benzema - 2
 
Another good game. Now for the mouthwatering, one we've all been waiting for clash between Nigeria and Iran!
 
I didn't watch the thread here all the time so I don't know wheter this has been already said, but Meireilles used his forefingers in that picture.
 
Paulo Bento what a clown. Insinuating about the ref. Ffs look at the freakin mirror and take the blame for a change. It´s always someone else´s fault. What an imbecile. Really dispise that clown. Just leave him to rot in the Amazónias.
 
Pepe is an idiot, Portugal have to beat USA and Ghana to advance and even that looks like it might be hard. That team really is piss poor apart from maybe Coentrão and Pepe but the wally got himself sent off.
 
So far germany and Holland look to be the most dangerous teams. Germany have more quality all over the pitch, but Holland have a great manager in van gaal. It would be an interesting match.
 
I can only say it was very idiotic reaction by Pepe..

For this time, i think Germany has it all, as Portugal (as we know) dont have any MF that can control the game or give some pinpoint pass
 
pepe clown, the midfield three of portugal so poor, i expect Merieles to be a bit shit but moutinho was dreadful wasted so much, not much ronaldo, nani, eder could do tonight
 
In terms of team organisation, Germany is probably as good as it gets at this WC. Probably the worst opponent for disjointed Portugal.

Germany are clearly better than Holland for me in terms of Quality.
 
That's his own problem though isn't it? He's supposed to be the best player in the world.

Too much pressure maybe?

ITV still going on about the red card

This sort of things happens all the time, culture clash.
 
I got Muller at 30/1 on paddy power to be top scorer, you would think he would bag a couple against USA and Ghana fingers crossed. Would love him at united he is just ruthless and always scores in the big un's.
 
There are some utter douches making out Argentina's team is so much better than Portugal's.

Defensively - Pepe, Alves, Coentrao and Pereira are better than Garay, Campagnaro, Fernandez and Rojo. In Midfield - Meireles, Moutinho and Carvalho/Veloso are better than Mascherano, Gago and Rodriguez

It's going forwards where Argentina excel, and only Messi is better than Ronaldo out of both attacks.
 
Dixon acting a cock.

Patrick is right, it's culture and England can't change it.
 
People really doing a huge disservice to quality players like Moutinho, Nani, Coentrao and Miereles who are all top players capable of playing to a very high level, in in some sort of weird attempt to protect Ronaldo. He sucked every bit as much as his team mates today.
Yup. The have a bunch of good players and they were all crap today, the supposed "best player in the world" was among the worst.
