[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Terreria!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Slightly concerned that Torreria is going to boss this game and we'll get usurped by someone else to his signature.

[SMatthews]

They’ve had a whole season of games to check his talent - one game isn’t going to make the slightest bit of difference.

Pretty funny that the camera almost misses him on the line up given he’s such a midget.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How many chances will Cavani miss?

Nothing wrong with being short :sulk:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira MotM so far.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The cuntery with Pepe has started already. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Little Torreira taking out Ronaldo. :bow:

[Letters]

Ronaldo gets in a nice early dive.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Torreria takes corners. :unsure:

[mkkreuk]

torreira already looks stronger than I expected.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronaldo shoots, straight at Muslera.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Fucking love that cynical shithousery from Torriera. Just what we need.

[SMatthews]

Menaldo goes for glory.

[SMatthews]

Cavani!

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

How many chances will Cavani miss?

Say it again! Say it again!

[Letters]

1-0 U R GAY!

Ronaldo :haha:

[Power n Glory]

What a goal!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 1-0 Portugal, CAVANI!!!!!

Me. :haha:

[GP]

Great goal!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Great goal!

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Did he head that, or does it come off his face? :haha:

yeah i know it's part of the head, shut up

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What did Cavani hit that in with? :haha:

[Letters]

yeah i know it's part of the head, shut up

Ah. Damn you and your white text :lol:

[Power n Glory]

Came off his fucking shoulder! :lol: Shows how good of a cross that was. Just get contact and you can't miss. Good link up play between Suarez and Cavani.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fonte heads miles wide!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Time for Cripps' BFF to step up. :popcorn:

[Goonermerree]

I knew that was going to be a goal as soon as it left Suarez's foot.

[Letters]

Time for Cripps' BFF to step up. :popcorn:

These boots were made for diving, and that’s just what they’ll do...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira. :rose:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

#PrayForTorreria

Uruguay will lose if he's forced to go off. Calling it now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira takes good corners.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Torreira takes good corners.

Watch Wenger coach that out of him. Oh wait .....

[Goonermerree]

They’ve had a whole season of games to check his talent - one game isn’t going to make the slightest bit of difference.

Pretty funny that the camera almost misses him on the line up given he’s such a midget.

Ha, is the little on the one coming to us? How many tiny players have we had over the years?

[SMatthews]

Ha, is the little on the one coming to us? How many tiny players have we had over the years?
Least this one won’t get shoved off the ball so easily.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronaldo's gonna go it alone says Tyldesley. :faint:

[Letters]

FK Uruguay :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Low freekick from Suarez, Patricio saves.

[Letters]

Good effort and save

[Master Splinter]

Fucking love that cynical shithousery from Torriera. Just what we need.

As well we must not forget Lichtsteiner who is little bit nutter.

[Letters]

Uruguay fans (or possibly Portugal ones) “doing an Iceland”! :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great dive from Cavani.

[SMatthews]

Our boy doing a job on Ronnie

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Seems a bit unfair for Portugal to have Ganesh on their team.

[Letters]

Oh here we go :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Freekick to Portugal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He's such a phallus.

[SMatthews]

If this was Ronaldo’s 45th attempt at a free kick I’d be more worried.

[Letters]

Ronaldo :haha:

Doesn’t even clear the wall.

[Letters]

If this was Ronaldo’s 45th attempt at a free kick I’d be more worried.

:haha:

[Master Splinter]

Torreira with the best clearance of the tournament.

[Cripps]

Torreira is an absolute beast. Must get.

[SMatthews]

Uruguay have completely shut out Portugal so far.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nandez. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gary Neville is going to go full on eulogising about Uruguay's back line, which in itself is justified but hearing Neville do it. :sick:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Suarez scream. :lol:

[SMatthews]

Get up you fanny

[Letters]

Why is Suarez holding his head?
Get up, you fanny.

[Letters]

Get up you fanny

:blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The pain must have shot up his neck. :lol:

Also, if he is holding his head so much, surely the ref will twig if he doesn't come off for possible concussion?

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Torreira is an absolute beast. Must get.

His positioning is so good. Always senses the danger and gets into the right position to snuff it out.

What a bargain!

[SMatthews]

:blink:

Great word in many ways

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cavani scuffer.

Back to reality.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 1-0 Portugal, HT. :bow:

[Cripps]

Fanny's :bow:

[Letters]

Great word in many ways
Correct. It was that we both said the same thing

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Godin. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronaldo sets up Silva but he completely scuffs it.

Uruguay 1-1 Portugal, Pepe! :sick:

[SMatthews]

Of all the lowlifes to score

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Fuck it had to be that cretin.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

As cynical as it gets from Ricardo.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

CAVANNNIIIIIII


What a goal.

[Letters]

2-1. What a goal!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 2-1 Portugal, CAVANI!!!

What a finish.

[SMatthews]

Wow

[Master Splinter]

CAVANIIIIII!!!!!!!!

[GP]

top goal Clive

[The Emirates Gallactico]

lol what a screamer.

[Power n Glory]

Beauty. Cavani showing up on the big stage for once.

[SMatthews]

Uruguay always been the Atleti of the international stage

[SMatthews]

Is Ronnie going to bottle another WC knock out game?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

B. Silva pulls it back to a dangerous area but Torreira clears it up. :bow:

Adrien Silva off, Quaresma on.

[Master Splinter]

Cavani showing he can do it on the big stage.

Higuain still missing sitters and out of the tournament.

Higuain :haha:.


Cavani/Higuain debate > Ronaldo/Messi debate.

[Goonermerree]

I want Portugal to win.

[Power n Glory]

Portugal have no idea what they're doing in the final third.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Muslera fumbles it! How did B. Silva not put it in?

[SMatthews]

Keeper and Silva panicked

[The Emirates Gallactico]

FFS Beranado Silva!

[Goonermerree]

I bet this goes to extra time.

[Power n Glory]

Cavani injured.

[Cripps]

Ronaldo :bow:

What a caring, humble, down to earth man :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cavani off, Old Man Stuani on.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Diego Forlan finally retired?

[SMatthews]

Ref handling this game well

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ricardo. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great work from Torreira.

[Master Splinter]

Torreira again :bow:.

[Globalgunner]

Ronaldo :bow:

What a caring, humble, down to earth man :bow:

Fake!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Guerreiro whacks it first time but over it goes.

[SMatthews]

If we can have an equaliser, a goal a piece in extra time and Portugal out on pens that would be perfect.

[Goonermerree]

Why do you all want Uruguay to win?

[Syn]

torreira looks very handy. Been on Ronaldo's case from minute 1.

[SMatthews]

Why do you all want Uruguay to win?

Portugal have two wankers compared to Uruguay’s one.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

B. Silva pulls it back but shinned over from Nandez.

Nandez off, Sanchez on.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Slightly concerned that Torreria is going to boss this game and we'll get usurped by someone else to his signature.

:gp:

We better have this fucking wrapped up.

[GP]

Why do you all want Uruguay to win?

Because Ronaldo is the worlds biggest cunt.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronaldo ducks out of the way.

Torreira saving his team again!

[SMatthews]

That was some ball - read by our boy.

[Cripps]

The white Kante :bow:

[Letters]

Portugal have two wankers compared to Uruguay’s one.

:lol: Fine lines at this level.

[Master Splinter]

Torreira single-handedly keeping a clean sheet.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mario hauled off, Fernandes on.

[SMatthews]

:lol: Fine lines at this level.

Every wanker counts.

[SMatthews]

Have to applaud the ref, he’s let the game flow and not blew for scrappy fouls every five minutes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronaldo slices his shot way wide.

[Letters]

Ronaldo shot :haha:

Nearly went for a corner

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rodriguez. :haha:

[Letters]

Brilliant by Suarez. Rodriguez couldn't get there.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Quaresma booked.

[Letters]

:haha: Ref doesn't fall for the cheating.

[SMatthews]

Ronnie suspended for a round he won’t be in.

Great reffing again.

[Letters]

Ronaldo misses the next match!




What next match?

[Master Splinter]

"Misses next match."

:haha: :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Quaresma blows it.

Portugal players falling down on command.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brilliant from Muslera.

[SMatthews]

See ya Ron

Another WC knock out game without a goal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 2-1 Portugal, FT!!!!

Ronaldo. :haha:

Did fuck all really.

At least he'll have that hat-trick against Spain.

Pepe. :haha:

Mourinho. :haha:

Torreira. :bow:

Clearly MotM.

Cavani. :good:

Suarez. :doh:

Uruguay the two time winners will just be happy to be in the QF's.

Portugal somehow conspire going out to their inferior South American counterparts.

Portugal should've let Iran through. :(

[Cripps]

Cripps :haha:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

"And there's the big loser" :haha:

Fucking hell Clive.

[Letters]

2-1 FT

Ronaldo :haha:

Fails again at the knockout stage in the biggest tournament. Hardly had a kick.

Cripps :haha: :haha: :haha:

Cripps :haha:

Boa Morte :haha:.

[Power n Glory]

2-1 FT

Ronaldo :haha:

Fails again at the knockout stage in the biggest tournament. Hardly had a kick.

Cripps :haha: :haha: :haha:

This is the same guy that points to Ozil not being able to do it on his own and all those lovely chance creation stats means he's done his job. Double standards.:lol:

[Master Splinter]

Ronaldo's hat-trick against Spain ranks alongside Bale's versus Inter as the most pointless ever.

[Goonermerree]

:lol: Fine lines at this level.

Very good.

[Globalgunner]

Pepe.:haha:. Hope he never darkens our screens again at a tournament
Ronnie.....off you pop!

[hobson's choice]

Great game, physical grown men football from both teams

[Master Splinter]

Godin, Gimenez, Laxalt and Cavani all superb for U R GAY.

But Torreira clearly MOTM.

A proper nuisance who likes defending but is also good at footy.

Big Weng has done it again.

[hobson's choice]

Godin and Jimenez:bow::bow:

[Globalgunner]

Im guessing this is the last we will see of Cripps now his WC is effectively over

[Letters]

Very good.

Has your TV got to the end of the Portugal game yet? ;)
I won't spoil it if not :d

[Letters]

This is the same guy that points to Ozil not being able to do it on his own

You're the one implying that Ronaldo did do it all on his own 2 years ago and that them pub-teaming their way to a trophy against poor opposition somehow clearly makes Ronaldo head and shoulders over Messi :lol:

[GP]

You're the one implying that Ronaldo did do it all on his own 2 years ago and that them pub-teaming their way to a trophy against poor opposition somehow clearly makes Ronaldo head and shoulders over Messi :lol:

Ozil won the World Cup 4 years ago.

Ozil > Messi > Salah > Ramsey > Ronaldo

[Özim]

Torreira deal not sure anymore apparently, he's an option but negotiations ongoing, looking at alternatives and a guy from Lyon if this falls through which considering his performances so far it could.

[Letters]

Ozil won the World Cup 4 years ago.

Ozil > Messi > Salah > Ramsey > Ronaldo

:gp:

And Mertesacker did too. And look where they got without him this time:

Mertesacker > Ozil > Messi > Salah > Ramsey > Ronaldo

[Power n Glory]

You're the one implying that Ronaldo did do it all on his own 2 years ago and that them pub-teaming their way to a trophy against poor opposition somehow clearly makes Ronaldo head and shoulders over Messi :lol:

Find where I said Ronaldo did it on his own?

[Goonermerree]

It's OK, Uruguay have just taken the lead.

Take Ronaldo out of Portugal and they look just as shit as most of those teams.

Your reading skills are piss poor. I worry for you.

[Letters]

:pal:

[Power n Glory]

This is where comprehension skills help.


Also the competition and teams in Euros > copa america.

It continues to get even more impressive.


Iceland, Hungary, Austria, Croatia, Poland, Wales and France.

I think you're overreaching here.


Take Ronaldo out of Portugal and they look just as shit as most of those teams.

Dishonest guy! :lol: Either that you or you really struggle to follow the flow of a debate. It all relates to Portugal never really having a great squad and why they're winning the Euro title is impressive. At no point did anyone say he won it on his own. It relates to the fact that Portugal are much poorer side than most teams, especially Argentina.

[Letters]

I disagree it's impressive. I've explained why at length in the other thread.
If you disagree then fine, but all your response to that was "but they won it". Not really a response at all.
And IMO it has very little bearing on the Messi vs Ronaldo debate.

[Cripps]

This is where comprehension skills help.

[Niall_Quinn]

Thank goodness, that cheating cunt Penaldo won't be getting any rewards for his awful antics this time around. Good for the game. Good for sport in general.

[Mac76]

Was out tonight but recorded and just watched the whole game

Only two things to say really:

Cavani :clap:

Ronaldo :haha: :haha:

[Marc Overmars]

Ronaldo. :haha:

Portugal. :haha:

[Mac76]

Thank goodness, that cheating cunt Penaldo won't be getting any rewards for his awful antics this time around. Good for the game. Good for sport in general.

He was unbelievably selfish in that game, kept trying to shoot through a gang of defenders instead of passing

Suarez may be a cheat but even he knows you should pass if it creates a better opportunity

[I am invisible]

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...

[Power n Glory]

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.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

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...

The pass of the tournament so far IMO

And then Cripps will post how that proves he's the GOAT :lol:

[Coney]

And then Cripps will post how that proves he's the GOAT :lol:

I thought it was Adebayor who had the goat.

By then the goonersweb banner will feature me in it for the lifetime service I'll have given to the forum :bow:
