I think Cristiano Ronaldo who is one of the greatest football star in the world are also facing the cruelty of aging, he is no longer able to sprint as fast as before with surprise counter attacking when he gets the ball in a good spot on the football field. I guess if Cristiano Ronaldo were to be in his prime years at his best form, Portugal will have a high chance to beat France in 90 minutes time and avoid getting eliminated in penalties shootout against France.
Well said but the game yesterday night wasn't about Cristiano Ronaldo alone. They have a dump headed coach. If you ask me, I'd say he knows nothing. Portugal had little chances in the game and he went ahead to substitute Bruno Fernandez from that game and I was thinking he wants to play the long gameby hoping they play penalties, how did he remove Bruno Fernandez that is obviously the best penalty taker they have? It shows how poor tactically he Roberto Martinez has been in this Competition.
Leoa the AC Milan winger, what was he doing on the pitch? A whole are placing blames on Joào Felix but I'd do that to Roberto Martinez. If I was the National Team, that'll obviously be his last game.
Ronaldo wasn't scoring getting chances, why allow him to play that long, why not bring in players like, Ramos and Diego Jota? He bottled up that game completely. It's disappointing. They have done a whole lot, Thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo he has done well for football, even in the next three decades, we'll never see another Cristiano Ronaldo. So much to say, but I'll pass.
I think Spain played very well, I didn't expect them to play this well. Germany was not as good as I expected, they missed many opportunities. In fact, both teams could have scored many more goals, but they were on their unlucky days. If the goal had not been scored in the last minutes, the players would have been much less tired. Overtime in such matches is very tiring and can cause great stress
Yeah, they could be facing Netherland in the finals again
..... I don't see three lions going that far honestly. Germany did all they could bit they failed to take it all to the penalties. That header wasn't expected. They did their best. Spain against France is another finals but we're clear who wins that game even before it kicks off, yes?
