Euro 2012

[DavidMarrio]

Martin Keown's commentary urgh.

Not surprised by how Portugal have been playing really, they've been pretty good this tournament apart from the 70/80 minutes against Germany before they changed their style. Got a feeling though this game has extra time/pens written all over it

[GoN_]

The Portugese have been fantastic so far. Love how they've taken the game to them and the Spanish hate it. Arsenal syndrome?

Probably our best match in the tournament. Will be really bummed if we lose.

[Nerf]

Not to mention the countless other incidents before that. I don't think the severity of the foul matters as much as how often the offender repeats his actions.

Edit: Should really refresh before posting.

Arbeloa should have had an yellow card already. Player with most fouls in this match so far.

If France played like Portugal against Spain, I bet that game would've been far more interesting.

So if France played better it would have been a better game?

With analysis like that have you ever thought applying to be a pundit on ITV?

ITV have pissed all over BBC this tournament as well.

Sorry Lineker.

Except for when Mick McCarthy is commentating. Amazing times

[Sam]

I agree ITV have been superior this time out.

It's not even close either. ITV were vastly superior.

[Matt]

BBC have been below their usual standards but they've still been lightyears ahead of Chiles/Carragher/Keane/Townsend/Tyldesley.

[Rafael]

France could do more damage to Spain's defence than Portugal are doing today, because they have more resources. While Portugal has Ronaldo and Nani, France has Cabaye, Benzema, Ribery, Menez, Giroud, Ben Arfa ( when he feels like ). That's why I said the game would be more interesting.

Portugal impressed me here tonight. Germany to win it all so I get my £300

[Lineker]

It's like comparing a giant douche to a turd sandwich.

All a mute point as they played shit. I also struggle to see any of those players as vastly superior to their Portugese counterparts, whilst Ronaldo wipes the floor with them all.

[Matt]

Am I the only one who doesn't understand the problem with playing 4-6-0 given the way Spain play?

[DavidMarrio]

Only good things for me is that BBC had Mick McCarthy for those two games and ITV have Roy Keane who just hates everything and everyone.

Although saying that, we can't complain too much as it could be worse....Channel 5 could be showing the games

It would increase man-marking, but the midfielders would have to run a lot to get to attack, and soon they'll tire.
