Well at least one good thing for Czech Republic came out of this - Baroš ends in our national team

Would love to see Portugal go up against Spain.


Wouldn´t be pretty,if Portugal don´t step up their game. Especially their efficiency was abysmal in this game. While Cech had a strong game, it had also to do with simple inability. Spain doesn´t give you a lot chances. You better use them.

I'm biased obviously.

But i don't think the gap is as big as it was 2 years ago, if we start playing like we did in the second half of this game, and if we don't get extremely unlucky and actually take advantage of our opportunities, we can definetly beat spain;they aren'tas good as they once were, and we are definetly better than we were in the WC.


The bold is exactly what I meant by stepping up the game. You completely dominated the Czech in the second half, but needed over 30 minutes and several huge chances to score. While bad luck and a strong Cech played a role, it can´t explain the inefficiency alone.

Spain has not only a Keeper on Cech´s level, but also a defense around the level of the German, which nearly shut down your offense completely. Against such a team, you need to use your chances or it will backfire.

The potential skill and team play is definitely there. If you can use it all, you have absolutely a chance against them. I would actually root for you in this scenario, because I fear that Germany has still a mental problem against Spain

There is no stepping up, Portugal's 3 forwards combined dont make 1 decent player...


Makes me wonder, how the hell Ronaldo could score over 60 times this season then >.>

Errmm, no no no, i was talking about the center forwards
So its either ronaldo, nani or some kind of free kick/corner or something

Well, at least Almeida created space for other Portuguese players by drawing defenders to him, something Postiga did not manage so well. Portugal were better with Almeida, although he didn't play particularly well himself.

And I don't think the gap between Spain and Portugal is too large. Portugal's play style is not based on dominating possession, which is a huge plus against Spain.

It's the same thing when Varela or Oliveira come inside the squad, for some reason the team seems to play better than with Postiga. Not sure what Postiga does, but he seems to drag people down to his own level. XD

(still better than van Persie or Huntelaar though )

Baros sure has disappeared since his Euro 2004 one hit wonder tournament hasn't he?
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Wow thanks boys! you made us proud!

that gif is really funny..

the best portuguese striker(Eusebio), the best portuguese winger (Figo) and a goal scored by the best portuguese forward (Ronaldo)!

for a small country we always had so many good players!

i don't know if we will beat spain/france, probably not, but in my opinion we have chances against both!

I would prefer to go up against span even tho they are stronger because i feel it's a better matchup for us, france always wins against us even if they have a weaker team with less esperience this time!

anyways hope we can win again in the next round!

Ronaldo is again a national hero, after the first two games he was so critized by us.. GO portugal and go ronaldo!

So many close goals by Ronaldo. If Portugal had loss 0-0, might have seen photoshops of the goal post being Ronaldo's nemesis
