Portugal v Czechia - Tues 18th June, 20:00 | Euro 2024 Group F

[urban genie]

Has to be said, this is the closest I’ve seen to a match resembling City v relegation fodder (though less quality in both sides)

Portugal in first gear, about 75% possession, not a huge amount of urgency.

Games been boring as fuck and potugal dour.

so you are validating the comments all season we are a boring team comparing us to this shite from the portuguese.

I would say its more like watching spurs v wolves tbh

 

[Gray]

All of our players are having shockers.

No they aren’t.

 

[P-Nic85]

He beat us once I think .

I choose not to remember that haha

But let’s it put down to Mancini having lost the dressing room

 

[madloaf]

I know he's a legend for Portugal but for them to bring a statue of Ronaldo everywhere and put him on the pitch is perhaps going too far.

Got to say the UHD picture on iplayer is stunning only problem it’s about 30/40 secs behind normal bbc1.

 

[Barcon]

No they aren’t.

"Our".

 

[lightning Rodri]

Roberto Martinez gets to mismanage another crop of talented internationals.

 

[Dipsis_LTU_MC]

Portugal are literally the most talented team in this European Championship, but they're no where near their true potential.

 

[RayCTID]

Portugual are in a similar situation as England

To be fair, I can see why fans of other sides could find us boring to watch. We don't play 90mph "up and at 'em" football. We play a patient, possession based passing game. Which can look slow compared to, for instance, the cultists' frantic style.
