Agreed. They should’ve scored in the first half. They got two in the second.
Portugal is a good team.
France struggled, England struggled and Portugal struggled, but they all won.
Eggsactly
The rule for taking off your t-shirt should be scrapped. It may be odd for a first 10 minutes goal but an injury time winner should be celebrated any way the player wishes. (Amad?)
Yup. (Take probably out though)Yes it was probably a free kick but jesus saying they've been robbed is a bit of a stretch. Shite defending is what caused them
Good game, although Portugals both goals were a bit flukey.
Real turkey of a decision
Well deserved win tbh despite the keeper feck up and the missed foul
Portugal, robin cnuts!
Was that a clear, clear foul? Yes. So fk to Czechs and Portugal would not score that goal. That is example of being robbed in football.Yes it was probably a free kick but jesus saying they've been robbed is a bit of a stretch. Shite defending is what caused them
This is the worst possible result for Portugal. They won’t get far being this bad. Cristiano can’t start for this team, he slows everything down.
shit defending from czechia...how the feck was he trying to clear that cross???? with his bloody knees??
Portugal feel like England. Won't win with the manager they have in charge.
Our goals were gifts from the Czechs tbf. Blunders by the goalkeeper and center back. It was a jammy win although Martinez and Czechia were utter shite.
Portugal deserved the win but it was a foul before the winning goal. Czechia also gave away the two goals to Portugal by making mistakes that lead to the goals.
Expected more from Portugal. Czechia is bad.

Is there a bigger chancer in footballer than Roberto Martinez? The man is the epitome of failing upwards.
Fully expect him to blag his way into the Barca job next. Let's hope INEOS aren't fans of him the same way they admire Southgate.

Obviously Martinez is a bad coach, but honestly all he has to do is pick the correct XI and Portugal have a good chance at winning the tournament. They don't need any tactical genius with the quality they have.
Czechs didn't stand a chance with Holes in their defence
Pepe must be one of the oldest ever players at a Euros. 41.
That second half watch was a chore.
Great game. Fantastic by Czechs. Ronaldo still sharp. Fernandes as always creative. Dalot was good too. Hope this tournament doesn’t wreck our players
Portugal are going to get humped first decent side they play . Unless they change set up . Czechs attack had all the potency of a Michelle Keegan fart and they still caused them problems .
Think he fell over
Yeah 3 pts is all that matters. The second game will give us a better view about the so-called favourites.
The oldest infact.
They said it in commentary - he took the title off some tracksuit wearing Hungarian goalkeeper.
It has never made any sense
He was once again one of the best.
He is. The oldest ever.
The sort of fluke luck that saw them good in 2016
Bizarre system to accommodate a 40 year old centre back and a 39 year old striker. Neither should be playing nevermind starting for Portugal.
No coincidence that Portugal's best performance under Martinez came when Ronaldo was unavailable for international duty.
Wonder what poultry excuse he'll come out with.
He's very to close my age! Fair play to him.
Playing in the Saudi league hasn't impacted negatively Ronaldo and Kante
I meant Martinez has been the same at his previous jobs! Same mistakes at Belgium and Everton before.
Germany plays a poor Scotland team that didn’t show up. Caf: not good.
Portugal plays a Chech team that did their best. CAF: not good.
This is the Euro, people. What do you expect? Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia in their entry game in Qatar. They ended up winning the title. Portugal didn’t even lose. They got the win the first game— that’s always the goal.

Seemed like a holy person appeared in front of him and he fell to his knees in worship.
Yes but Martinez needs to stop playing around. I don't understand how you play a stable eleven and formation during the qualifiers with very good results and then changes everything when it matters with a negative effect.
