EURO 2012

PORTUGAL: Rui Patricio; Joao Pereira, Bruno Alves, Pepe, Fabio Coentrao; Miguel Veloso, Joao Moutinho, Raul Meireles; Nani, Helder Postiga, Cristiano Ronaldo

DENMARK: Andersen; Jacobsen, Kjaer, Agger, S. Poulsen; Kvist, Zimling, Rommedahl, Eriksen, Krohn-Dehli; Bendtner

I feel like this portugal side should be really solid through the middle and exciting on the wings, but then there's helder postiga.

I always liked Hugo Almeida at Werder Bremen and it appears he's been scoring for Besiktas as well, they should give him a shot.

Read yesterday that the Oranje were using Kuyt at RB in training, as I believe was proposed for Liverpool in the past, with RVP left and KJH up top. But I'll trust LBI's sources.

Zimling has started well too. Shame he's had to go off.

zimling was one of their best players vs Holland too, not good

ugh

Pepe 1-0

nani looked like he was crying there?

Quite a bit of palming-in this tournament

glad to see pepe recover so quickly from blowing out his achilles

fuck off could the goalie have done better townsend. He had no fucking chance!

Glad you're glad xp

a miraculous recovery to be sure. Just call him lazu
xprus.

er lazurus. Tho lazu sounds like the missing frwd link for portugal by way of brazil

Tho Lazu = Danish left-back of Basque descent

so cynical

How the hell wasn't that a red card?

what'd he do? Missed it

great goal

Fantastic.

ah well RIP denmark

great striker, i've always said so

finish!

Meireles handball on ball over the top about 10 yards inside his own half. He had to jump to reach it to make the handball.

xp to number none

postiga making me eat my words

Okay, what's the ideal result tonight to set up the last round? Dutch win would make Holland-Portugal pretty tasty.

thanks pandemic. was he preventing a goal scoring opportunity though?

long way out to be a clear goal scoring opportunity

well if holland win they've all got 3 pts. But I want Germany to win so that's my ideal result.

not clear cut tho the danish player probably would have got on the end of it, whether he would have controlled and shot before a covering defender got back is hard to say
xp

beauty

that was awesome

Very nicely worked. He always scores.

wonderfully done denmark!

love that goal
maligned strikers on fire

Hahah this match is turning out great! One more goal before the half?

sweet goal that. bendtner of all people!

has now scored in 5 out of 6 against portugal, so

that's bullshit stopping the game after portugal have had their attack imo

Haw haw, that cross positively dribbled across Postiga's patch, six yards out.

they could've kicked it out if they wanted too
xp

5 in 5 according to opta even. but also he is shit, so xp

"We've yet to see a dull game in this tournament..."

Oh yeah?

No Huntelaar? Are they gek?

Van Marwijk seems to be, yes.

Read yesterday that the Oranje were using Kuyt at RB in training, as I believe was proposed for Liverpool in the past, with RVP left and KJH up top. But I'll trust LBI's sources.

Hope I'm wrong though

Interesting match so far. Hate Pepe with a passion though. Well, hate nearly all of Portugal.

Nani's been good so far

£3 billion!! Fucking Hell.
