A warnig to Portugal (Portugal-v-England)?

Question

A warning to Portugal. BE CAREFUL Rooney and others will try to get a penalties for England by cheating... you know how... MAKE BELIEF ATTACKS which Portugal can deal with easily, in the box AND then Rooney FALLS on purpose without anyone doing anything to him and the referee will then have a perfect excuse to put England ahead !! Do you guys, from England or not, agree or disabree ? (please state the country you're from). Thank you.

Italy -v- Australia ? Thierry Henry yesterday ? They all claim not to be cheats but they all do it.

"go england" -- I did. You didn't obviously ! Who injured Ronaldo ? The japanese ? Who committed wll those fouls FIRST ? The Chinese ? And whe Portug beat England in the past SEVERAL AND SEVERAL TIMES, LOL, was it with any violence ? NO ! So why are Portugal suddenly these cheats ? Is it your fear to face them ? Or a complex everytime you guys face them ?

Michael S -- Porgual reputation for diving only started when Enland learned that they had to face POrtugal, LOL. Up until then, it was Bobby Charlton saying that "THE PORTUGUESE ARE LOVELY TO PLAY AGAINST... THEYJUST GET ON WITH IT, NO DIVING, NO CHEATING!" -- He said that when you, wer accusing the Italians to be cheats !!

"Michael_S" - YOU SAID: "Don't think i've ever heard anyone moan about England diving before" -- Of course yo havent but that is because nobody starts tose rumours except the British press, LOL. It was all about the Italian cheats before, remember ? And until you learned that you were facing Portugal, the press only accused the Dirty Duch of diving... But since youknow that you are facing one of the strongest teams in the WC, PORTUGAL ARE THE DEVILS... You bet we are... out of the window with gentleman and kind play... it willl be the full force of Portugal skill against you... JUST, resis te the temptation to fall inside the box, OK ?

"Jon_D" - You said : "as PORTUGAL did in the last round against Holland" -- LOLOLOL... can you see what you just said ?? Read it again and then answer this: What about the 'first' round, and the middle round ? "Provocation" is a term taken very seriously as it can mean the difference between a heavy sentence or...no sentence at all. -- Provocation is precisely what the Dirty Dutch started out with Portugal... or didn't you see the same match that everyone did ?? Not very sportsman-like of you to close your eyes to what does not suit your argument !!
Besides what do you guys expect to achieve by out of the blue accusing Portugal of cheating ? To scare them into submission ? Haven't you learned anything by losing with PORTUGAL ? Achieve what ?! Top scare Portugal ? To achieve that it will take the skill you believe you have, not rumours, LOL !

"Atomin" - why do you thank me for supporting Portugal ? I AM PORTUGUESE !! You know something,... it is not the English public that is at fault here. They are good guys. It is their PRESS ! Their press incite them to violence in football, to false beliefs (football). Did you see a large photo of Rooney in the newspapers a few days ago, semi naked, arms wide open, with a face of a savage, with A RED CROSS OF BLOOD painted on his body ? INCITEMENT TO VIOLENT BEHAVIOUR ??? English are a nice people... But they believe in their press as if it was the Bible and have photos like those plastered over the country's newspapers. WHAT OTHER COUNTRY IN EUROPE or in the World does that ?

Atomin -- You said: "don't you think he (Scholari) knows about what you've said?" -- I surely hope so... because football is for many countries, including England and Portugal, the population's main source of entertainment... and if people do not show their views as we are all doing here... the sport will DIE !!! If we allow the sport to become a source of hate and of cheating we will all suffer and lose the most wonderful of sorts.

"Johnny_F" -- Well said, Johnny !!

Make no mistake about this... the referee, I honestly believe, will be biased against Portugal or the press would not be so certain of not losing face should England win, LOL !!

Sorry, meant to say "should England lose"

"elgil" -- it is damn_d easy to be clever after the event, elgil... Had you played the Dirty Dozen (meaning 'Dutch') instead of Portugal, your opinion would be different somehow. Well, in a way, it has... it did from the moment you learned you are facing Portugal, LOL !!! Portugal are COOL ! Skilled ! and Joy to se play... These are all words used by the press to describe our football..SUDDENLY it all changes... We're not gonna eat, you guys... only beat the hell out of your team, that's all... LOL

"go_england" -- you and I are going round in circles. No one is denying what everyone saw. My point is that whenever in the past any european country plays Holland the refereee MAKES SURE DUTCH GO THROUGH !! I know it, MANY know it and the Portugal players know it AND SAW IT HAPPENING IN THE GAME WHEN THE Dirty Dozen started their usual !! Certain that the same thing was happening, the Portugal MEN reacted. As to Figo, in isolation, you can say what you like but put yourself in his place... age 34, witht an idiot Dutch player CARESSING HIS face in contempt... what PRECISELY would you do, after the cr_p that had already been happening since the Ronaldo incident ? Two points therefore (1) you would do what ? Maintain your cool, exhausted, after all that sh_t and (2) your comments on the opinion that GREAT Bobby Charlton has of Portuguese football and (3) How would Rooney react if instead of Figo it had been Rooney. Rooney would have eaten the guy alive, LOL- FIGO no red card EVER.

"Van Persie's" -- oh, a dutch lady, right ?
Not right ? -- It does not matter ! What does matter is the classical film that I am sure "Van Persie's" has seen -- have you ever seen the film "The Dirty Dozen" ?-- unlike the Dutch they were cowboys, so they didn't play football... a bit like the Dutch who were supposed to but... didn't... they decided to FEAR the Portuguese and sorta knock them and, guess what... they were the ones knocked out of th W/C... I had an orgasmic-like laughter that I feared the neighbours would hear me. When the final whistle came and the D.Dutch were OUT... Portugal Portugal Portugal Portugal Portugal Portugal.

" science_rebel" -- Wow, Irish and supporting Germany. OK !! Thank you very much for your efforts with the Portuguese language. Brilliant effort. I understood everything. I think we will knock 'em out and... and... can you imagine a full strength Portugal team against a full strength Germany team in the Final ? Can you imagine the SHOW ? That is the kind of show we want...not St.Portugal -v- Naughty Dutch, lol

" science_rebel" -- Wow, Irish and supporting Germany. OK !! Thank you very much for your efforts with the Portuguese language. Brilliant effort. I understood everything. I think we will knock 'em out and... and... can you imagine a full strength Portugal team against a full strength Germany team in the Final ? Can you imagine the SHOW ? That is the kind of show we want...not St.Portugal -v- Naughty Dutch, lol

"elgil" -- WHAT ? If that ever really happened, Rooney would walk to Crouch and headbutt him, lol !!!

Apparently now FIFA has reviewed T. Henri's antics and has found it guilty of ACTING

"go england" -- You have admitted that the Dutch have that bad reputation for dirty play and so byimplication you 're saying that Portugal doesn't, right ?! And just because (a big 'just-because') Portugal won and no more goals happened, only shows that WHILE IT WAS 11 AGAINST 11 a beautiful goal was presented to the world by the Portuguese. Then Dutch Filth took over the match and NO MORE GOALS... God exists, and therefore the Dutch went home with their Cutchee tails between their dirty legs, LOL. Does that make Portugal PROFESSIONAL foulers ? Portugal Angola CLEAN - Portugal Mexico CLEAN - etc etc CLEAN Look we can say what we want but fear makes us irrational... and I think England fans have suddenly become a bit irrational with your opinions about Portugal. Hey, you are only going to lose a match... it is not WW3

"Van Persie's" -- and with a dutch sounding name your opinion about the DUTCH PORTUGAL game is biased... Let's instead talk about the SUPERB GOAL we peforated the Dutchees with !! DID WE REALLY NEED TO PLAY DIRTY WHEN WE PLAYED clean until that MAJESTIC goal ? Or did you guys PANIC before such superior football ?? You Dutchees made us think... you made us think that we were playing against a civilized team instead of thinking about another SUPERIOR goal, we have to think SURVIVAL !!! You kicked Ronaldo FILTHY... you kicked or goal keeper in the BA_LS etc etc In the end you did not survive the SUPERIORITY of Portugal and you went home, your Dutchee tails between your leggees !!

Answer 1

Oh I think Portugal will definately struggle to win against England. Because they have great players! Yeah Rooney. I rate that guy highly because Im a United fan but that match against Ecuador where he pushed against to players in the box claiming that they held him back but it was he who actually tried to push past them! Did any of you English see that? Probably not I'd say!!
Let's face it people. Whenever Portugal and England meet the english feel intimidated and make them out as the cheats and divers that they are not.
O inglês são demais teimoso ver que eles não são os melhores lados. Temem o português. LONGO VIVE PORTUGAL!!

Answer 2

Portugal played quite well against Netherlands, which were not fair-play, they were just kicking the portuguese, so it was good that PT won.

For PT-England, it is today, in 1 1/2 hour... It will be a very nice game. I think PT will win, but hope it will be a very tight game, like 1-0, 2-1, or 3-2.

If the winner does 2-0 or 3-0, it just means the game is almost fake. Good games usually don't have more then 1 goal of difference....

Let's see, but let's let the sport spirit surround, not the fanatic one!! I'll be glad even if England wins, as long as the game is great and sporty.

Answer 3

Are you having a laugh?! It's Portugal with the reputation for diving! Don't think i've ever heard anyone moan about England diving before-would be a bit hypocritical as we (English) are always moaning about other teams doing it (Argentina, Spain, Portugal, Holland etc etc).
Interestingly, one of the Dutch players, think it was Van De Sar, warned the England team to watch out for the Portugese diving!!

Answer 4

excuse me
the professional dirty players are portugal, dint you watch the match between portugal and netherlands??

"francis"- put it clearer- the pros at dirty play are portuguses and the dutch. ya, probably the dutch started it but they both stretched it out of hand- headbutting being rude, and revenge doesnt work. and since portugal are playing the english, figo better keep his raging homones in check. till now i havent seen the english play in such a ruthless way.

u certainly know ur football... on the other hand, i know mine too
we'll just wait and see what happens in the game between portugal and england.... this time the referee is NOT european.... and england do not have a reputation as bad as the dutch..

Answer 5

I Sooooo Agree, and I hope portugal beat them. The england team are an insult to the beautful game that is Soccer (Football)!. I only wish the portugal manager would go on Yahoo! answers and see the truth in the warning that you are saying.

I wish Portugal the best of luck in the world cup.!!Mesmo que eu não suporte sua equipe do football e não pense de que um de seus jogadores é um hag completo e uttly do ***. Gay de Soo. Mas eu desejo-lhes o mais melhor da sorte de encontro ao fósforo de sábado de encontro a Inglaterra e espero-o realmente que ganhem, e retrocedo-o Inglaterra para fora! Soo sugam! Picosegundo. Eu amo Germany e o klinsmann é um herói.

PS: I am irish and support Germany for 12 years.

Answer 6

Just like Italy did against Australia, France did against Spain, PORTUGAL did in the last round against Holland. I think it is more likely to come from Portugal (Mr Figo). Come on England.
Australia have already been cheated out of their place.

Jon from England

Answer 7

You don't know what are you talking about. Never, ever an English player cheated. They are a model of honesty, sobriety and sportsmanship. Didn't you heard about Crouch asking the referee to take his goal back because he committed a foul before scoring his goal?

Answer 8

I TOTALLY agree! this English doesn't accept the fact they are playing crap and they still upset about euro 2004, so u English u have to see one point u never heard about English diving and dirties fouls because u r reading Ur own press, and watching Ur own TV, remember u play for only pride we Portugal we play whit Ur hearts....... -_-

Answer 9

Thanks for the support, Francis. The English are still crying SOUR GRAPES from 2 years ago (Euro cup). THEY are the divers, who can only play boring football, balls from afar by the air, to the area. But Scolari is a clever guy - don't you think he knows about what you've said?

PS: Boa, Francisco!! Yeah I know the press is preposterous!!!
PPS to ELGIL: No, I just remember Sol Campbell and thousands of English mad like hell that his goal was called,claiming he hadn't committed any foul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 10

They all are. As long as FIFA does not succed implementing a fix for this diving it will continue to be part of the game.

I agree 100% - Canada
