Portugal finally have a striker on the pitch. He's also a ****

Everyone was raving about the quality of the Euros at the start and now it’s all gone very quiet.

Martinez would win a lot of fans if he subbed Ronaldo now.

 

[mancboy]

Prob with cancelo is that hes not a good enough attacker to be a winger and not a good enough defender to be a fullback

Slimey snide coming on.

Not a fan then?

Knockout games are generally more cagey, doesn't matter what tournament it is. Group stage games are a bit more open cos sides know they can make it up later. Slovakia were never gonna come out in this game but they're fighting for everything and occasionally look dangerous. Portugal just not being tight enough with their finishing.

Jack of all trades, master of none.

Whats going on with the pitch? Was it relaid recently? Shockingly bad

It had a lot of rain, then they closed the roof too late, so nothing to dry it out.
