Good match, I wanted Egypt to win but nothing i can do.

At least Russia won yesterday

Uruguay has a good team and potential to make it far.

 

[Purity of Magi]

Well that was a quick goal of Portugal. This is a match worth to watch. XD

 

[Farfalla]

Won't discredit the amazing free kick he scored, but the other 2 were a penalty and basically an own goal... It's like saying Diego Costa alone was wrecking Portugal.

Spain's midfield was great so how can you say only Diego Costa destroyed Portugal.Contrary Portugal's midfield isn't that great,Ronaldo created those chances into goals.

Other Portuguese players couldn't leave any mark on the match other than Ronaldo.

He basically alone created chances,assisted and gave goals.

Spain's midfield was incredibly overrated from what I'm hearing in different broadcasts around the world. 66 % of the possesion yet almost the same amount of chances created as Portugal (that could had even won it in the end).

It's not like he dribbled from the midfield into those chances either. Portugal just kicked the ball up and hoped for the best.

Did you really see the match or just heard those broadcasts?

Midfield played really well and they played professional football in the middle after scoring 3 goals.Possessing the ball,not trying to goal and playing defensive.But suddenly Ronaldo created his magic and scored the goal.Spain could never expect that would happen.

I saw the match, I'm saying the broadcasts were overrating them.

Doing that irrelevant possession is what fucked them in the ass, had they pressed forward they could had won

It's a normal professional football move.Lot of team waste time after gaining a lead in goal because if you go for attacking your defense may be vulnerable. Spain was doing this quite well.But who would have guessed Ronaldo will score this amazing freekick.

Not really. You do that on the other team's half, not yours. You hold the ball on thr corner kick, not the halfline.

So that they can counterattack and level the score.Ok

...have you never seen a player hold the ball on the corner kick spot?

The faster counter attacks they get from you playing around in your half are more dangerous, which is what happenned.

It is done around 90 minutes not before that that.

 

[Hardy]

Ronaldo scored in the 87th minute are you serious

 

[Arjuna]

OK Spain was having the possession around 90 minutes right? or 82 minutes ...
So what should they do now stand idle at the corner flag around 82 minutes
