Semi Final 1: Portugal vs Wales
- Thread starter Sigma
- Start date
Collins is having a really good game so far.
This is a terrible game
What made you believe Portugal were capable of dishing out a creaming?
Bruno Alves has been very poor.
Wales have to be careful now.
Lol Bruno Alves is nuts. Someone put money on him being booked and thank me later.
Does he like pizza?
It gets said all the time but its crazy Portugal don't have a world class striker for Ronaldo to be able to get his best position. Lumping the ball only to him when hes covered like this is a waste.
feckING HELL PORTUGAL STOP AIMING TWO FEET ABOVE RONALDO'S HEAD.
Is it me or does Andy King look a bit like Vardy?
This is a pretty awful semi final. More backwards passing than anything else.
Also, Joe Allen is so obvious in everything he does, has to wind up to play a ball over the top, if he stabs it for a short pass it goes about 10 yards out of the way.

Can safely say neither of these teams will win in the final.
Reflexive stupidity, assuming a team called "Portugal" that made the semis of a big tourney with a player called "Ronaldo" might eventually turn it on. And they are playing against what is basically a lower half of the table PL side.
And France needed the Iceland boost to overtake them.
Still boring to watch though. Perfect middle of the road football being played.
Yeah, we all know he has a mental leap but seems his team mates have took the exaggerations literally.
Why do managers play Bale everywhere but the left wing? That's where he made his name, where he produced the performances that warranted his huge fee.
Asking him to play centrally where it's congested seems to highlight the weakness in his game. His touch and feet are just OK.
Get him out wide on the left, use his pace, power and that left foot.

Sanches passing.
Poor quality! Come on it's a SF for god's sake!
I should know better... using my phone
This is atrocious.
Come on Wales. Its only Portugal.
Wales should get Williams on.
In all fairness, Portugal are no more themselves. Very basic set of players when they go back to their clubs. Play with their own strict tactics to utilize their superstar and little talent around him. Beyond flukey they've got to two semis in a row, with the exception of the anomaly win over Holland.
More dire: 2004 Greece or 2016 Portugal?
Great long diagonol to the right wing by Bruno Alves
The Portugal kit is mint
Two of Portugal's best wingers are playing as centre forwards, the other is on the bench.
Portugal are so negative. Every time there is a cross they put only 2 players in the box...
A 15 minute break from this crap, well needed.
If Portugal make it to the final against France, it's almost tempting to support France.
Awful game. Awful tournament
This is a very dull game, so bad the ref hasn't even put on any additional time.
Garbage first half.
Booooo!
Half time, the saviour
Eurodull 2016
Neither had any interest in trying to outscore the opponent. Portugal have just been very lucky this tournament.
Pretty happy with that half
