Even England are better than Portugal :\
Lol. Nobody voted for Portugal in our poll. :p
What happened to Romania? we all voted for them.
Well its been fun guys. I think the tournament has been one of the worst I have ever watched. 2 or 3 good games, otherwise lots of defensive football.
Very disappointing.
Neither this thread was as entertaining as the one we had at the world cup.
Very disappointing.
Bye, guyz!!!
How can anyone say England are better than Portugal is beyond me. They played them before the Euro started and they only won on last minutes, in London, playing against 10 men for most of the match.Quote:

Well done Frenchies :dozey: :rolleyes:
Portuguese squad actually isn't weak, but it certainly took them lots of time to find their feet in this Euro. They got fortunate by getting to the weaker side of the tournament play-off, in addition to 3rd placed teams getting through into play-offs to being with. While strongest teams like France, Germany, Italy, Spain had to face each other early on and couldn't afford any "average performances" or they would have been pushed out straightaway.
Long time waiting though. Portugal has been in top 4 in major tournaments 5 times ever since 2000, so they have been pretty competitive for a while and finally they did it. They got somewhat lucky, but you always need luck in sports too, don't you - as the saying goes. Because there are many good teams, whose level is very close to each other, so it depends on the form of the day, who comes out on top.
I predicted this after the Hungary draw that they will now win. Real Madrid and now Portugal, easy draws to finals :rolleyes:
