EURO 2012

oof arbeloa, should have kept that down.

Excellent from Ronaldo, I'm right up for a bit of that tonight

Bullshit FK

otm

ref having a nightmare both ways imo

This is much better than I expected it to be.

rather see cesc as a false 9 than negredo doing nothing.

Portugal look good

Terrible crossing, but everything else A+

pique with 3 miscues in a row.

Best passage of the tournament, this. Could do with some proper crowd noise overdubs.

Nani is having an incredible game but he apparently slept with the ref's wife or something because he's had two opportunities scuppered now.

Pique ... hasn't looked right for nine months now.

this has been the best performance v. spain or barca i've seen in years. xavi and iniesta have been nullified with such ease. sure inter and chelsea made it past them and real won the last clasico and portugal may still lose but this has been so well planned and executed so far.

wtf did nani do to this ref to be treated like this?

He's been fine in the tourney up to tonight imo
xp

nani never fouled there FFS

gonna be heartbreaking when portugal lose this

Pique ... hasn't looked right for nine months now.

Word is he was getting back to form at the end of the season, no? And he's been fine up until tonight. Maybe Shakira is in attendance. Either way off-form Pique is still better than most centre-halves.

not for me! I'm firmly with Spain
xp

Ramos is getting dicked on tonight. He could easily get sent off.

I thought he was awful in the CL semifinals, though I didn't particularly notice him against Italy or France in this tournament.

perriera is an "angry man" apparently. In general not just on occasion.

Klinnsman's English is so American, now.

Is Almeida a ringer for ilx's Lord Soto or am I imagining it?

Ref shite. Game good.

Why are the beeb studio guys constantly all talking at once tonight? so weird.

ignorance/ego

Ronaldo whets their fancy?

Negredo was a terrible choice.

Fabulous touches in that break. This deserves a better audience.

No reds please ref

This is getting kinda weird.

this ref is ruining what is a fine match.

He reads and stuff and has a nice beard and plays a v. ilx friendly way and all but the one thing I really do love about Xabi Alonso is his one attempt per game to lob a keeper from the half way line.

Portugal getting squeezed in the middle now

cheap free kick

xabi alonso is v handsome
game recognize game

also all the flopping in this game makes me feel at home watching Manu ginobili, only there's like 7 of him

Cool insight bro

Portugal need to put a lid on this petulant, niggly shit, it's so often their undoing

i know we have done it before but 'flopping' is such an ugly (and non-football) word

Argh, that was it

bad pass, shit finish

What's up with Ronaldo's shooting this game?

cronny?
ronny!
oh, ronald...

'flopping' is perfect though, it should be used

That would have been incredible.

Coentrao is player of the tournament imo.

no one can give a good end pass

not like this
