Portugal should be leading by 3-1 at the very least. They bomb-basting Holland goalkeeper. And finally, Ronaldo gets to play striker. He's coming much less to midfield and you really see a difference in his play.HT 1-1 Portugal VS Netherlands:
Well seems Netherlands still aren't performing too well, maybe Portugal/Denmark deserve to go to the next round instead.
HT 1-1 Germany VS Denmark:
Shocked at Germany conceding that one goal by Dehli. Poor defence and GKing.
Actually, Portugal deserves to have scored at least 2-3 more goals in this first half. Besides the first 10 minutes, they dominated this match.wooooh Netherlands gonna win 5-0!
Wan't a fluke, but isn't something I expected Germany to give up, or at least let a play like that be set up.Portugal should be leading by 3-1 at the very least. They bomb-basting Holland goalkeeper.

Portugal/Denmark are definitely more deserving than Netherlands but oh well, anything is possible. Russia was much better than Czech but they still crashed while Czech finished first.
Denmark's goal was nice. They fought pretty well and the way, they targeted Bendner on the corner for the assist, shows that it was a worked goal rather than a fluke goal due to Germany's defense.
Germany are better but frankly, I'm just hoping that Portugal passes.
Always be wary of set-pieces. This is a football lesson that you must have witnessed often since you are a Barcelona fanWan't a fluke, but isn't something I expected Germany to give up, or at least let a play like that be set up.
Yes, but with a defence/GK that Germany has shouldn't be that big of a problem. We know set piece are Barcelona/Spain weakness were as Germany not too much.Always be wary of set-pieces. This is a football lesson that you must have witnessed often since you are a Barcelona fan![]()
Thats the thing with Ronaldo, he'll miss a lot, but if you keep giving him chance he'll be more than happy to put it in the net.Roonaldo fails it took him 8 attempts wtf
But still Portugal deserved the goal they kept pressing and u can see even how foolish the best of teams can be in terms of defending ronaldo. 2-1 job well done.
I agree if u look at how he scored the goal it as different from the rest he seemed to look very well at where he was going to kick the ball and he was giving thAt chance which is a fail on the Netherlands part.Thats the thing with Ronaldo, he'll miss a lot, but if you keep giving him chance he'll be more than happy to put it in the net.
Portugal and Germany win 2-1 each.Thats the thing with Ronaldo, he'll miss a lot, but if you keep giving him chance he'll be more than happy to put it in the net.
@bold. not in hell bro. i don't want a replay of euro 2004. those damn greeksPortugal and Germany win 2-1 each.
- 2 goals, 2 posts and a good number of chances. Was a pretty great match from him. Nearly did an assists to Nani; who shot it onto Stekelenburg. Lots of run too and obviously was more lethal today since he dropped less into midfield and remain on wings and in the box only.
- Really glad for Portugal.
- Netherlands wasn't even 1/4 level of the team they were in 2010. Sure, it's the same rich squad but too many things are missing in their play. It's not flowing at all.
-And I'm not being critical with the '1/4 level' statement. Their defense are poor, 2 world-class strikers like RVP and Huntellar got only 2 chances combined in a whole match, their midfield are slacking in defensive tasks, the team play is not fluid, the pass are really slow. Really Van Marwick needs to remedy many things. 0 points is disastrous for WC Vice-Champion and it screams pathetic.
- Congrats to Germany for being the only team to grab 9 points in this Euro and hats off for doing it in the Group of Death.
- Denmark did a good Euro. Nothing to be ashamed of. Just unlucky to be in this group of death.
- I would have love if Portugal ended first to face-off Greece but never mind. Both Germany and Portugal are huge favorites though for QFs. The Semis will be the first real test for both of them but obviously, they need not to underestimate Czech or Greece.
Well, they have that big history together. Just like France/Italy who most likely will square off.@bold. not in hell bro. i don't want a replay of euro 2004. those damn greeks
