Euro 2020

Portugal are shit, and I mean shit to watch. Like driving a Ferrari around in second gear forever.

Someone described them as posh Greece 2004

 

[PuntsWolf]

Maybe not but it was a piss poor effort...he's been mostly cack in this tournament....as has Ronaldo

It was. Always been the way with Jota though. Those left foot swingers either fly in the bottom corner or go miles wide. No real finesse, just try and get a good contact and if it’s on target then the keepers going to have problems.

 

[jd1981]

This is very scrappy and niggly at the moment

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Exactly what Portugal want, this is how they play.

Belgium hamstringing themselves ridiculously with their pensioner back three. Means they can't play expansively at all.

It’s not a great watch at all comes back to my point about international managers not being the best.

 

[Carrotdude]

What is it with miserable co commentators? Danny Murphy last night and is it Lee Dixon hating everything tonight?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Don't want Palhinha based on this. Plays like he's just finished a three course Sunday lunch, so laboured.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Great goal. No chance Rui.

 

[jd1981]

That’s great

Do find it strange how Belgium have managed the get so high in the rankings (don’t always tell the full picture) and are fancied so Highly. World class front 3, good midfield 2 and solid GK. But the back 5 aren’t anything special.

As I say that T.Hazard thwacks one in…

 

[jd1981]

Now Portugal have to come out

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Like watch Ramsdale there, nowhere near it.

 

[Deano]

Don't want Palhinha based on this. Plays like he's just finished a three course Sunday lunch, so laboured.

I think he's looked alright, he's an out and out DM but he looks like he can pass pretty well and looks to have the physicality for the Premier League.

 

[sycophantia]

Howitzer to take the lead, they've been terrible up till then, worse than Portugal and thats saying summat

 

[Alan]

Palhinha is shit on this evidence.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Like watch Ramsdale there, nowhere near it.

Hell of a lot of movement on it.

Dias turning his back like a fanny didn't help either.

Still ended up far closer to the centre of the goal than it did to any corner, think he's just caught flat footed not anticipating the shot then the movement kills him because he's not set to go after it.

 

[PuntsWolf]

View behind the goal their shows he had a clear view of it. It’s moved but probably only a yard. Considering it pretty much goes down the middle of the goal and he gets nowhere near it then you’d say he probably should do better.

We’d be giving Pickford pelters and his small arms if it was him

 

[Deano]

Yeah it's another one like many he let in for Wolves last season where you can't class that as his fault or an error particularly but they're shots you expect top keepers to be saving.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Dias both turns his back AND ducks, that's shocking. Can't fathom what he's doing.

Not to totally absolve Rui.
