So do we care about Portugal? anymore?

[Andrew DEREK UK]

I have drawn them in the sweep at work!

Well done!

They will hopefully lose to France in the semis

They do have the world's greatest 'actor' , trouble is he is a footballer called Ronaldo.

 

[Richard Bruvofetc]

They will be collecting their awards at next years Oscars.

And one in particular will not be enjoying his game next season .

(and I just wonder if Shearer will be having a quiet chat with Rooney)

Why do English fans always always look for someone to blame?

Did Ronaldo make Rooney stamp and push - no he did not. OK I'll admit his attitude wasn't very sportsmanlike but that is part and parcel of the game. All players do it - some are worse than others. Rooney is a loose cannon - Ronaldo would know that more than most but Rooney was sent off because of his own stupid actions and no-one elses.

Presumably it was Ronaldo's fault that only Hargreaves managed to score a penalty as well?

Let's not turn this thread into a football argument please.

The comments about Ronaldo were intended to be taken in a light-hearted manner, I don't think it would be fair on Andrew if we turned it into a 'how England lost' type of scenario.

Lets keep it friendly guys and on topic, although I am a bit confused as to what the topic now is, as it started off as what we know about Portugal and seems to changed to do we care about Portugal???
