nani a dick, cron gonna cry, alves shouldn't have stepped up.

I think Ronaldo's about to go back into the dressing room and kill everyone in there one by one.
Really wanted Nani to try something audacious and fall flat on his face and was disappointed when he didn't.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:27 (eleven years ago) link
Wasn't Nani's fault if Alves was going out of turn.
― Temporarily Famous In The Czech Republic (ShariVari), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:27 (eleven years ago) link
ronaldo you shit out.
― second only to popcorn (or something), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:28 (eleven years ago) link
Nani should have just let him go. Such a dick move.
Poor Coentrao, 'ave a cry son.
― Smothered, Covered and Chunked!!! (a hoy hoy), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:28 (eleven years ago) link
clever move not letting ronaldo take one.
― kid steel (cajunsunday), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:28 (eleven years ago) link
Nani's pen was great. So was Fabergas'.
― Love Max Ophüls of us all (Michael White), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:29 (eleven years ago) link
Nani hasn't got the brain power to make such a decision.
― Know how Roo feel (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:29 (eleven years ago) link
So I guess Ronaldo isn't a good player or something.
― Smothered, Covered and Chunked!!! (a hoy hoy), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:30 (eleven years ago) link
the dink is so passé now. the scuff is where its at.
― kid steel (cajunsunday), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:30 (eleven years ago) link
there's about a quarter-inch difference between Alves' and Fabregas' penalties, probably fair reflection of the game tbh
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:31 (eleven years ago) link
Nani running up may have been a weird psyche-out move
― Number None, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:31 (eleven years ago) link
alves' face broke my heart, poor guy

lineker struggling, haul im off
― Ну, там твое место, там сабе будь! (darraghmac), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:33 (eleven years ago) link
lineker clearly about to collapse, what time is it there, 2:30am or something?
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:33 (eleven years ago) link
I was reading an interview with Panenka himself earlier where he was taking great joy that every commentator, in every country, calls that 'a panenka'. Hope he wasn't watching bbc tonight.
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:33 (eleven years ago) link
I figure Nani was chased forward by his coach for that - as soon as it happened the Alves miss was inevitable, not that he looked confident in the first walk-up.

― Rosie 47 (ken c), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:35 (eleven years ago) link
What'd they call it on BBC? xps
― boxall, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:37 (eleven years ago) link
is it against the rules that having announced your penalty takers to the ref they go in the wrong order?
― second only to popcorn (or something), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:40 (eleven years ago) link
'the dink' iirc xp. Foreign terms never catch on here, everything else is called 'little flick'
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:48 (eleven years ago) link
yes but otoh the day lawro tries to use 'trequartista' on commentary is the day i give up paying a license fee
― Smothered, Covered and Chunked!!! (a hoy hoy), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:49 (eleven years ago) link
feels weird saying it but that was a great shootout
game was fuckloads better than Lineker and Hansen made out, I really dislike the entry-level notion that if Spain are on anything less than sparkling form it renders the whole spectacle a dud
― jacob von logflume (DJ Mencap), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:50 (eleven years ago) link
to these inexperienced eyes portugal were fucking tremendous, right up on spain like white on rice
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:51 (eleven years ago) link
so when did everyone decide to abandon the fantasy league and leave me looking daft at the top? dick moves.
― second only to popcorn (or something), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:51 (eleven years ago) link
otm Portugal were fabulous. In a way it's slightly depressing, because nobody can keep that up for a full 90 mins and beyond. Germany'll rip Spain in the final though (if they get there).
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:53 (eleven years ago) link
spain's lack of striker truly is a bizarre way to play; i know torres has his issues but lacking villa don't you need SOMEBODY who doesn't mind trying a little forward fuckery?
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:54 (eleven years ago) link
they played a striker in the first half
― Number None, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:55 (eleven years ago) link
i mean fielding a team that includes fabregas but nobody for him toflip it to should be prosecutable behavior
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:56 (eleven years ago) link
i find the lack of striker thing really overegged. it's not like it means they're playing with 10 men or something. and it's not as if they don't have tons of goalscoring potential in the team.
― Know how Roo feel (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:58 (eleven years ago) link
also... is it me or were bbc way harsh on ronaldo? surely it's not that uncommon for a team to have the best player on the last penalty? am i completely wrong?
Dunphy went HAM on him naturally
― Number None, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:59 (eleven years ago) link
can imagine. also when has a player got to pick the kick he takes? blame it on the bento imo.
― Know how Roo feel (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:01 (eleven years ago) link
ok ok maybe i am drinking the kool-ade. but i do think they miss villa.
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:02 (eleven years ago) link
thread otm. that was a good and proper game.

really feel portugal blew that.
― Know how Roo feel (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 22:06 (eleven years ago) link
surely you want your best penalty takers on the first pens as it gets statistically less likely the penalty will actually be taken the deeper you go, as happened there.
