Semi Final 1: Portugal vs Wales

This will finish 4-0 or 5-0. Serves Wales right, they haven't even tried to play football today. Just defending deep and hoofing it long every time they get the chance. Might have worked against a Belgium team who are specialists in self-imploding, but not here.
 
Portugal had to turn up at some point!

The first half was trully shocking. I wasn't expecting this. It's more of individual brilliance rather than Santos setup though
 
I wouldn't mind seeing Portugal win this tournament. But the thought of Pepe getting a winners medal in anything football related makes me sick :mad:
 
Either come forward for the ball or wait where you are in case there's a touch. You cant dive to where you think the ball will go when its so slow going across a crowded box.

He must be doing something right
 
Nani has probably been Portugals player of the tournament.

Yeah slightly edging Pepe now, i agree mate.

Still plenty of time though. Portugal has tendency to lose focus when ahead
 
Bayern look to have struck dogshit with Renato for that fee.
 
Portugal probably won't commit forward too much now. Lose one goal and the game is back on. Fear the excitement is pretty much done in this game.
 
Ronaldo: the perfect mixture of brilliance and cnut.
 
Oh the two former United boys! Cool.

At least that premature thread comparing Bale 's tournament performances to Ronaldo 's won't get too long now.
 
On the one hand I like Portugal, so it's nice seeing them do well. On the other hand, I think it's completely farcical that a team who came third in their group can reach the final. It's a stupid tournament structure.
 
Right let's do what we've done for the rest of the tournament. Bore them to death.
 
Serves ITV right for picking such a biased commentator, its great for Wales fans but for the neutral it makes it difficult to listen to.
 
We shouldn't let Nani go, more I am watching him (in Portugal, Sporting and Fenerbahce), more convinced I am we made a big mistake.
