    If Portugal ever put together a WC winning team, I'd put money on a 50/60/70 year old Ronaldo coming out of retirement to play the last 30 seconds of the final and "win" his medal...

    Suarez may be a cheat but even he knows you should pass if it creates a better opportunity
    That pass from Suarez to Cavani was inch perfect. Only a miracle goal would have got Portugal through in that game. They were clueless in the final third. Basic stuff falling flat. I can understand why Ronaldo was trying to go for it. It looks bad when you're greedy but the criticism is much worse if you're a passenger in the big games.

    It's hard to blame a striker for taking shots, especially when the alternative was Bernardo Silva missing an open goal or Fernandes smashing over from 50 yards when you had 3 in the box.

    Suarez is a horrible, horrible, horrible bastard. And I love him.

    I think the pass from Cavani to Surez for his pass to cavani was pretty good too.

    thought he played really well for his team last night, apart from all the clutching-his-head-and-rolling-around nonsense of course...

    I thought it was Adebayor who had the goat.

    By that I'm assuming that means you'll be dead by then?
