Sorry for your loss 😉

Why do you think I lost? 😕

I was hoping folks here knew the difference between a wish and an opinion. Besides, I’ve calling Portugal overrated for a while here haven’t I?

Slightly disappointing with the level of the semis esp if Morocco loses a couple of players — they have zero depth.

I barely support my home country, Brazil. I like football in whichever form it is presented.

If England goes through today then it's Morocco in the final.
If France wins then fifty fifty.

I agree with the first part. However, I think France will have the edge. The history between both nations will add some spice.

The bolded part. I thought you put money on the game.

I support where my money is.
In 2004 I found miss Ghana for the miss world title. Ladbrokes offered 45 to 1.
I saw that one made statements to the press about president Bush how great a president he was and helping Africa.
It was obvious.

should have left that counter pass alone, and now two stupid yellows in 2 minutes

plus he has fucked up at least 5 or 6 breakaways in the WC

This. I was shouting "leave it you're offside!!" his teammate was also asking him to leave it.. he still went for it.. what the hell was he thinking??  Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Also with that red, does that mean he misses the semis?

Oh hell no, I don’t like this Portuguese team as I wrote before. They definitely need to find bigger athletes as well, as Ronaldo once was.

A loss or win does not change favoritism tho. The odds are what they are.

Perhaps they’d play 10 times and portugal wins 6 … who knows? Single elim games are a very unique thing esp in the World Cup with all the emotions and physicality.

They were favourites due to their roster. Thankfully, games aren't won on paper.

Morocco has what is effectively home advantage, so that's playing its part too. Africa and the Arab world are rooting for them to do what most thought was unthinkable (except for Eto'o).

England have never won a WC knockout game on foreign soil versus an elite team.
