German fans were allready thinking they would win against Portugal.. but they forgot they first had to thru France!

hope it's a good game and Portugal wins :D

No we were thinking France was the real final because Portugal would be easy if we could beat France. Still thinking the same. French were thinking the same btw.

After seeing Germany attack (when they had to score) I think Portugal will be harder to contain.
We focus on each match instead of thinking of the finals already, contrary to some German posters here that thought Fra would be an easier opponent than Italy .


i think with our full roster France would have been indeed "easier" than Italy. IMO Italys defense is better than French. French fowards are better, but wouldn't matter with 70% possession and Hummels/ Boateng/ Neuer.
Then again, Italy game could have gone either way, too.

Something to the "salty Germans blaming the Ref": I didn't see any major mistakes or wrong calls, so there is that. But i still feel he was a bit more loose with those yellows and a few situations i did see a foul where the Ref didn't, but that may just be bias

Situation example 1: Kroos near the box, tryin to go through 3 french guys. IMO the first one was ineed a foul, the other two didn't need to cause he was already off-balance/falling -> yellow and freekick in good position

Situation example 2: Pogba vs Schweinsteiger at a cornerkick -> penalty? (not sure about that one, have to rewatch)

Situation example 3: Draxler on the wing vs Evra?. Happened a few times and most of those were absolutely fair. But i think it was the last one, Evra just bodyslammed Draxler without a chance to get the ball -> penalty?

Obviously it may just be bias, just curious bout some other opinions

EDIT: It helps with coping if you can blame someone ^^



So nice to see cocky german fans becoming sad

So you guys are now into the "IF's" ??

you guys lost the "real" final.. now lets see who wins the fake final.. you know? the one that gives a award!

Hope it's a nice game and whoever sucks less win.. (since only german knows how to play football ^^)

Stop pretending it is cockyness when someone says Portugal played pretty bad overall. That is a simple, non-biased assertion that has nothing to do with Germany.

You did not say Portugal played bad, you said it'd be easy. It's also not true Portugal played bad - we've played pretty much how Fernando Santos wanted us to play - not pretty but it got us to the finals and we've never looked inferior to any of our opponents so far.

Portugal looked not inferior but also not superior to Hungary, Iceland, Austria, Poland, Croatia. All they did was defend and then hope to get lucky at some point. Which they were but I will not be impressed by that.

And I said easy compared to France.


Total Attempts:
Portugal 23 - 3 Austria
Portugal 27 - 4 Iceland
Portugal 19 - 10 Hungary
Portugal 21 - 14 Poland
Portugal 17 - 9 Wales

The Croatia game is the outlier, they had 17 attempts but 0 on target and never looked threatening except for the single opportunity they had just before Portugal's goal. If by lucky you mean not having clear penalties conceded in every single knock-out game we've played, then you'd be right.

If you need it spelled out, by lucky I mean advancing although they only got 3rd in one of the weakest groups. Advancing against Croatia although they did nothing but defend all game and had this one counter attack that went in. Advancing against Poland because of penalty shooting. And finally lucky because of having probably the easiest path to the final any team has ever had.

Yeah ok then they played more offensively in group stage. Does not change anything about how well I think they played.

Yeah I agree tbh.

They looked superior to all 3 teams in the grp stages. They were just balls at scoring and when they did score they were balls at defending.

They played pretty shit in the Croatia and Poland games when the competition was actually serious, is why I am not impressed with them.

As for those stats. Please. Any game Ronaldo is playing in will have a bunch of helicopter busters in it. Very few of those were even close to quality looks.

I was responding to "All they did was defend". Unless we were trying to shoot down them helicopters from behind the half line, then that number of attempts tells you that we actually were doing some attacking in those games.

Fun fact : if France wins this Euro, it'll become the most successful European country as a host, with 3 titles for 5 events hosted. France is currently at 50% "host success" rate, like England, Italy, and Spain.

You can get the same level of salt by denying them a key penalty and let them lose 1-0 in the 89th minute.
So if you are in for the salt, there are many ways this game can deliver.

I understand you are a German, you are used to win, ok we get that..

Now open your eyes and watch football instead of simply saying others sucks without watching the games.. we draw 3 games but we should have had 3 wins.. sorry to burst your bubble!

If Germany should have won against france so should we against all our opponents besides croatia that was a 0 chance game for both teams until our goal

Stop pretending it is cockyness when someone says Portugal played pretty bad overall. That is a simple, non-biased assertion that has nothing to do with Germany.


I understand you are a German, you are used to win, ok we get that..

Now open your eyes and watch football instead of simply saying others sucks without watching the games.. we draw 3 games but we should have had 3 wins.. sorry to burst your bubble!

If Germany should have won against france so should we against all our opponents besides croatia that was a 0 chance game for both teams until our goal

Uh, Croatia had half a dozen very good chances to score a goal. Vida alone had two or three.

German fans were allready thinking they would win against Portugal.. but they forgot they first had to thru France!

No we were thinking France was the real final because Portugal would be easy if we could beat France. Still thinking the same. French were thinking the same btw.

After seeing Germany attack (when they had to score) I think Portugal will be harder to contain.
We focus on each match instead of thinking of the finals already, contrary to some German posters here that thought Fra would be an easier opponent than Italy .


i think with our full roster France would have been indeed "easier" than Italy. IMO Italys defense is better than French. French fowards are better, but wouldn't matter with 70% possession and Hummels/ Boateng/ Neuer.
Then again, Italy game could have gone either way, too.

Something to the "salty Germans blaming the Ref": I didn't see any major mistakes or wrong calls, so there is that. But i still feel he was a bit more loose with those yellows and a few situations i did see a foul where the Ref didn't, but that may just be bias

Situation example 1: Kroos near the box, tryin to go through 3 french guys. IMO the first one was ineed a foul, the other two didn't need to cause he was already off-balance/falling -> yellow and freekick in good position

Situation example 2: Pogba vs Schweinsteiger at a cornerkick -> penalty? (not sure about that one, have to rewatch)

Situation example 3: Draxler on the wing vs Evra?. Happened a few times and most of those were absolutely fair. But i think it was the last one, Evra just bodyslammed Draxler without a chance to get the ball -> penalty?

Obviously it may just be bias, just curious bout some other opinions

EDIT: It helps with coping if you can blame someone ^^



So nice to see cocky german fans becoming sad

So you guys are now into the "IF's" ??

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL

ok sure they had friend !



So you are talking about the 2 headers he had that went out? ok we had one from pepe plus a penalty kick not called!

But sure.. they were so much better.. you know i watch the 120 minutes of defensive football by BOTH TEAMS not just Portugal

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL

ok sure they had friend !

Vida 120+2'
Vida header 113'
Vida header 62'
Brozovic header 52'
Rakitic free kick 45'

And that's not counting the 4-5 times Croatia had opportunities but the shots ended up very high in the sky (overall shots count : 17-6 in Croatia's favor)

Yes it was a boring game, yes Croatia didn't play much better than Portugal, but saying that they had 0 chances is as false as saying that Portugal only defended in group stages.

haha that's funny.. so now they had a great game and we survived by luck.. sure dude

Funny how Portugal misses chances with plus 20 shots and we are a defensive team.. others shot 17 times 0 GK defenses and they deserve to win and score loads of goals

^^

And we also had chances.. at least 4 + the goal + penalty not awarded!

You can say we suck, you can say whatever.. truth is tomorrow we are going to play one more game against france and all the other EU teams are going to watch on the TV

Jesus dude, try not to make me say things I didn't say, and try not to take everything that's not praising Portugal as the best football team ever as a personal insult Oo

I never said Croatia had a great game and Portugal survived through sheer luck, I never said that Croatia deserved to win or whatever shit you're making up. I said that both teams played meh, but that saying that Croatia had 0 chances to score a goal was false, as I showed to you with facts. And if anything, them having several missed goal chances is a sign that they didn't play well, not that they had a great game. I also didn't say that Portugal didn't have any chances.

I also didn't say that Portugal suck (and I think French people would be ill-advised to think they won't be hard to beat), although I stand by my opinion that the only thing that allowed Portugal to beat Croatia and Poland was Pepe being all over the place and making no mistakes, and although I personally heavily dislike that team for reasons.

No wonder you think everyone hates Portugal if you distort everything to make it sound that way.

Yeah i'm fed up with the portugal fans as well. Up to the semis they scraped through, then suddenly all the fans start acting like theyve been one of the best teams. I think portugese football deserves an international title by now, but I can't bring myself to cheer for a 3rd placed team in their group.
