[Bonzi]

Russia v Portugal

our chances are :boohoo:

 

[Johnny_Big]

Can't say I'm happy, but it's better than facing England or Spain, that's for sure...

 

[Bonzi]

What are Portugal's group results?

Russia beat Finland 5-1 away and Hungary 3-1 at home.

 

[Punkt]

wins against Latvia and Poland. both 2-0

 

[Bonzi]

Meh, we could have got Serbia, Czech Republic or Belguim, but instead of it we got Portugal with Ricardo Vaz Te :boohoo:

 

[MaSsiVe]

our team wasn't convincing against Latvia or Poland, but I'm sure we have enough talent to get past Russia.
not that Russia sucks, but with the amount of quality youngsters we have available I'd say a non-qualification would be very disappointing...

 

[TOON ARMY]

Hmm, England/Germany

Should be tasty

 

[Bonzi]

Russia - Portugal 4:1
Denisov, 5; Nababkin, 47; Savin, 64; Denisov, 90+5' (p) - Masadu, 12
In the 41th minute Pereira was sent off for the second yellow card.

That's just great. Great and unexpected

 

[Virgo]

yeah the ref was unexpected too, Joao Pereira's sending off was a joke, the guy got carded after 47 seconds and no way that was a penalty in the end.

either way awful result, Portugal should have done more but we had really bad luck as well, there were 2 balls in the post. Combine this with the shameful reffing and you get 4 - 1.

 

[Vinnie Jones]

The person who appointed Couceiro should be shot. João Pereira

 

[MaSsiVe]

didn't get to watch the match, but what a f'cking disgraceful result

 

[Moreira_Benfica]

wow wtf.. is it 1 or 2 legs?

 

[Help?]

2 legs


Portugal lol. Don't underestimate the russians, they are always good when young, they just don't improve as good as the rest after they grow up.

 

[Tiago_10]

Just saw the replay on TV João Pereira being sent off for nothing

Couceiro sucks but what a joke.

 

[Dreath]

England beat Germany 1-0, a beautiful strike by Leighton Baines from 30 yards. Fully deserved as well.

 

[Hendrik]

Germany were horrible. England should have put one or two past Rensing in the first half.

 

[Moreira_Benfica]

wow just saw the highlights, joao perrira sent off for nothing and there penalty was also questionable

 

[Callum]

Baines amazing strike, suprised me.
