Extra time.

 

[Lauren Hynde]

Jesus!

Penalty kicks.

 

[neonlyte]

Oh Gawd!
Penalties

 

[Lauren Hynde]

If we win, I'll stop bad-mouthing Ricardo for good. Maybe.

 

[Lauren Hynde]

OK, Ricardo is God.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

Oh! Fuck! Yeah!

 

[Belegon]

OK, Ricardo is God.

I think I agree....

I can't remember ever seeing a keeper do so well in PK's under pressure. I remarked to a friend at work yesterday that the German keeper would never have to buy his own beer in public again...

Ricardo topped him. Outstanding.

The English that were left on the field at the end have nothing to be ashamed of though. They did well to get it to PK's after playing so long down a man. No Owens, no Beckham and Rooney lost due to his own actions...no shame for the English at the end.

 

[CharleyH]

OK, Ricardo is God.

Today, maybe. Let's wait and see what happens with France or Brazil, and then we will find out your true feelings about him.

AND YEAH PORTUGAL!!!

I guess we won't be seeing too many of the English on this thread from now on?

Enh, I heard they were bad losers anyhow.

 

[Lauren Hynde]

It was a good match overall. It's a shame there were no goals in regular time.

 

[neonlyte]

WELL DONE PORTUGAL

Still can't believe England lost on Penalties again - but Ricardo is brilliant.

The first half was ass. The rest really entertaining. England was at their sharpest in extra time with the kiddo Lennon. He'll be reeeeally interresting in the next cup.

Yeah, he should have played instead of Beckham the whole tournament.

 

[oggbashan]

I wonder how many England fans will now support Portugal for the rest of the tournament?

Og

 

[Liar]

Yeah, he should have played instead of Beckham the whole tournament.

Or Owen, who didn't do dick until he got injured.

 

[gauchecritic]

Og

Not many.

The referee did a fine job.

Portugal were rubbish, we were worse.

Come on France.

 

[Golden_Silence]

I would like to nominate 2 people for Ass of the year!!

Sven Goran Erikkson and Arsehole Wenger

Reason? Arsehole convinced Sven to take Theo Bloody Walcott to the tournament, that kid must have creamed his pants on that one, he got front row seats and contributed.... Fuck all.

I mean, Wenger never even used him for his own first team really this season.

Now called me biased, I don't care, Jermaine Defoe should have been there as back up and not sent packing as Rooney was fit - Virgin Nuts Walcott should have watched the cup from his playpen while drinking his pepsi.

Wenger - You're an Arsehole

Sven - You're a tit for listening to him, not even Faria 'blow job' Alum is gonna want you now and Nancy De Lollipop will be someone else's bitch by the end of next weekend.

*walks off muttering 'Swedish Tosser - French Twat'*

 

[R. Richard]

Og

Couldn't say. I have been backing Brazil all te way.

 

[CharleyH]

Not many.

Come on France.

LOL - France showed themselves in ONE game! You think they can follow through? (as much as I love 'em).

I guess the next matches are down to three European countries vs. South America, huh?

 

[Liar]

I'll be damned, the frogs hop on.

 

[CharleyH]

I'll be damned, the frogs hop on.

They came through?! I personally could not bear to watch. Perhaps my not doing so gives them power? Well, Portugal will beat them if I watch the game. Hm ... what to do - what to do.

 

[Lauren Hynde]

Damn, this is truly the year of the reckoning. Bring on the French, we have a score to settle with them as well.
