This is by far the best Portugal team I’ve seen by far. I still think they are short of challenging for a WC win mostly because of depth and weaknesses in certain areas, but definitely good players all over who need to be scouted.

carvalho does look PL made with all that power and good on the ball.

guedes what a shot! 

On the other end, Netherlands looked poor in certain areas, esp the right side. They had spaces on the wings but the balls in had little to no real quality. Perhaps just youth and they still need to improve.

Whenever I saw them in the last couple of months they were not really good, including the 2016 Euros which I still don't know how they won.

 

But today they are great and deserve to win.

2016 was an ugly tournament. Teams were playing ultra defensive. Pretty much Portugal won it by drawing their games all the way to final. They even finished 3rd in their group.

Btw this Portugal team looks interesting. They have always been decent defensively which is pretty much everything in international football. Plus offensively CR is not even their best player, Bernardo Silva is imo their best player.

Fernandes looks unique too. He just takes the shots like players used to do in the past. Nowdays everyone just dribbles passes into the goal instead of shooting here and there. 

I remember watching football as a kid and the best players on the teams were trying to score from anywhere. It was a joy to watch. Nowdays all we see are tactics. Dribble to win a faul, pass to score in open goal,...its all the same. Obviously there is efficiency in there, but nowhere near entertaining.

When Bruno took like 5 shots in first half only,  I immediately remembered the times when best players did that in every game.

Yet more evidence as to why I hate the Brasilian national team and their cuntish fans. It is always a joy when they crash out of any major tournament.

 

Brazilian fans chant homophobic slur at Copa America opener

https://apnews.com/64728a28d7734d888133c89ca707afba

SAO PAULO (AP) — Brazilian fans have sung homophobic chants during Copa America’s opening match at the Morumbi stadium.

Bolivian goalkeeper Carlos Lampe heard the slurs several times Friday, chanted by thousands of Brazil fans behind his goal in Brazil’s 3-0 victory.

Homophobic chants were overlooked in South America until recently. They usually take place when the visiting goalkeeper runs to take a goal kick.

Brazilian stadia started seeing a wave of homophobic chants after the 2014 World Cup the South American country hosted.

Governing body FIFA has repeatedly fined the Brazilian soccer confederation for homophobic chants.

bout time he got arrested, a lot of refs on his payroll, Ovrebo in 2009 was no coincidence, Platini even said before our 2nd leg against Barca that he did not want another english final in Champions League. you can bet that if the cunt was still around there wouldnt have been all english finals this season.
