Aren't they going to suffer if they continue to play like that? Once England were down to 10 men Potugal did very little to win the game in normal time.

Portugal didn't have the killer instinct because England put 9 players in the defense.

Their killer instinct was concentrated on that cheating **** Ronaldo who was intent on getting Rooney sent off from before the first whistle.
Personally I thought Portugal were very tight defensively but their attacking play was pathetic.
For a ntion of supposed hard men however I cannot believe how easily they fall over.

I believe they were more concerned with amateur dramatics instead. I do worry about what this teaches people though. Fall down, pretend to cry, get a free kick... not just the Portuguese but a lot of teams. The Australians were about the only ones I saw who didn't seem to make such a fuss. Where's the sportsmanship gone?

Portugal played alright... I was rooting for England & it was a heartbreaker. However, Portugal's keeper did awesome!!!!!!
