Euro 2016

[Gorka]

I respect Portugal for trying to be as dull as 2004 Greece in order to win a tournament.

[Baddar]

Yawn

[Arjen Robben]

ffs, come on Poland.

[Chris2K]

Ronaldo actually manning up for once.

I love a penalty shoot-out between two neutral teams. This isn't neutral. Please win Poland.

[Szumi]

Balls, was hoping Ronaldo pulled a Messi

[Kaney]

Really hate all these slow run up, stutter penalties these days.

[Szumi]

Yes Lewa!

Boom! Thought he was skying that, but great pen 

Some good penalties, this. But please fuck up Portugal 

[Chris2K]

God dammit. This Portugal team is the worst side to be in the semi final of a major tournament that I can remember.

[Szumi]

Kuba

 

Fuck!

[King Ellis]

Sad news for Indonesia ball.

[GoN_]

HELL YEAH!

Except we haven't played anything like Greece. The only game where we were anywhere close to that was against Croatia. But carry on with the circle jerk.

He didn't say you played like Greece.

He said you were as boring as Greece.

Which is correct (outside of the Hungary game).

Portugal getting this far emphasises how piss poor this tournament has been outside of the odd game.

You're right, Greece were far more interesting to see progress through.

Portugal are absolute dirge. Ronaldo and his stupid face cannot get out of this tournament soon enough.

I don't think it's too early to suggest that this tournament hasn't been all that great. Nowhere near enough excitement to this point if you ask me.

For me the highlights of the tournament have been Wales and Iceland. The smaller teams have been a lot more fun to watch.

[DavidMarrio]

I've gotta agree, it's not been the most exciting tournament.

I don't know if that's down to the format or the teams themselves. Seeing Hungary, Wales and Iceland do as well as they did has been nice. 

There's been a handful of exciting games... I think the last game I enjoyed was Switzerland/Poland. 

Most of the games have been too tentative. 

[Baddar]

I don't mind games that remain 0-0 for large parts as long as there's chances being created. Goals aren't everything. Once Spain went 3-0 up on Turkey, that match bored me to tears. 

[The Lusophone]

I want Portugal to win because that means Ronaldo has done more internationally than Messi.

[JasonM]

I want Portugal to lose because that means they'll stop with the god-damn cult of Ronaldo every time anyone does anything... I don't want to see how Ronaldo emotes to literally everything that ever happens in a game. Them showing him doing a super-slow-mo strained poopy-face after the Poles kicked in the second penalty was the last straw in an already extremely short straw.

He is one of the two best players in the world, and arguably one of the best ever. Of course he's going to get more attention than anyone wants him to.
