  • More please, keep them coming, can't live without footy!
  • thanks fred
  • Thanks heaps! we go no games on tv here in australia. much appreciated
  • Obviously, Portugal is deadly in this championship. Hitting the posts like 4/5 times. Fantastic match..They are going to win Euro 2008 if they play like this all the way...Smooth attacking football
  • i know portugal is the best...
    wait friends...wait for the moment...
    cristiano is there...euro is ours...
    cristiano will be greatest footballer of all time...
    the time will come...
    the whole world will see
  • If he keeps up his form, hell definitely join the legends. But greatest of all time? It is possible for him to do so, but he will have to play consistently well throughout his career, and he cant get complacent. Im not saying it isnt possible, but he has many many years ahead of him and he will have to deliver regularly as Maradona, Zidane, and Pele did.

    Nice win for Portugal, great show. Maintain possession and build the attack and open the game up. Turkey had possession, but didnt do anything with it, a shame for them.
  • hey guy,
    i agree with u.
    he is the most talented footballer of this generation and probably will be the greatest footballer after pele and maradona ...
    no others till now,absolutelely not..
    for that, cristiano just need to keep quiet and keep playing; we know he is the best and the whole world knows that.
    all the debate and discussion is all due to the club football fans...especially spanish vs english..
    the fans are like that they are blind..they dont go after a true football and a innocent footballer..

    I was referring to Ronaldo, sorry.
  • What did Simao say to Christiano to let him take that first free kick? You would have thought it was a tailor made location for one of his free kicks.
  • In the next match pepe should be replaced nuno gomes as a striker
  • In the next match pepe should replaced nuno gomes as a striker
  • Average game..i watched it from the beginning. CR wasn't at his best..in fact he was below average except for a couple of touches. Dudes...FRANCE is going to kick ass...it's gonna be FRENCH to the bones...Henry, Ben Zema and Zizo's kids are going to take care of business...Portugal are just a bunch of retards...Nani is an Idi ot.
  • if any one want to watch live euro 2008 then here:

  • HÖrbört Fandelll :)

    The english really don t get it :d
  • What do you guyz think of Raul Menezes making it to Man United
  • Good performance by the Portuguese. But lets wait what the others like Germany, France, holland, Italy and Spain show. I don't think that the Turks were very strong
  • ee

    i live in austria and damn this is such a great event,first 2 games done the next 2 coming up...footy for life!!!

    by the way...portugal wasn't facing a tough side...turkey was way below expectations. still a big favourite if they keep up this kinda display against the big ones(spain,france,germany,...)


    g:m EUUUUROOOO '08
  • Portugal played well.
    Turkey blew it.
    Ronaldo was OK but didin't pass enough.
    And Moe, forget about France. I don't want you to get your hopes up.
    Força PORTUGAL!
  • Game last night was fantastic. Czech Rep was boring and the least said about the opening of the Euro's the better. But at least you can rely on Portugal to play exciting football. On another note does anyone want to try this mobile football management game i've been sent? Its free during the group stages www.mobileclubmanager.com.
  • Well, Portugal played very well, good defense-atack play and if it keeps playing like that it's gonna be hard to beat them.

    However there are Italy, Germany, France, Spain and Holland that are great, let's see how they play.

    I believe that Germany, Italy and Portugal are the most strong ones currently.

    Let's see what's gonna happens next!

    Regards
  • Turkey really deserved to win this they played so well and almost held of the cheating portugese bastards
  • let's not get that way

    ...you must be turkey and i know that Portugal hard feeling you but let's not get that way

    why you say portugal cheat? i found the score unfair because Portugal deserve more than then 2-0 actually.

    Go learn how to lose without crying please!

    have some respect you fucking retarded kid, no one is saying bad things about your country...just shows the fucking idiot you really are......btw are you an english arsenal fan? good luck in euro...

    wait a minute...
    HAHA
  • Turkey deserved to win???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
    omg even the most retarded person without any football knowledge can see that portugal was far farrrrrr superior.more possession ,more shots on goal, 3 balls at the woodwork, one offside goal...wake up to reality van husein ...man dont tell you are another bitter english fan that its crying at home xD
  • you should be happy if you are a turkish fan to not leave that game in total humiliation ....the fair result would be 5-0 to be honest
  • france vs germany in the final

    france wins extra time
  • Wow, gus you need to calm down, are you a bit frustrated? I personnaly think that France has a better chance winning the cup than Portugal. Everybody has it's own opinion.
  • true, germany as i see it it's very well prepared as well as portugal. Let's see holland vs italy tomorrow and france!

    one of this will be champion, now which one is difficult to predict..to portugal will be very tough cause they will find eventually germany

    regards
  • oh yea, do you mean France as in the team who choked in the world cup final last year or as in the team who couldnt even put 1 goal on the scoresheet for the entire euro2004? go smoke some more drugs friend. france suck major a55.

    I THINK HES JUST UPSET COS FRANCE COULDNT SCORE A SINGLE GOAL IN THE LAST EURO. MUST BE HARD SUPPORTING A SHITHOUSE SOCCER TEAM :((
  • [quote comment="18999"]Turkey really deserved to win this they played so well and almost held of the cheating portugese bastards[/quote]
    Van what??? sounds dutch to me. Oh ya! I almost forgot. Portugal beat the Netherlands twice. And Turkey definetley didn't deserve to win. Lots of people diminish Portugal's credit because they said that Turkey played very badly actually.
  • ronaldo is nth much when he has surrounding players who actualy do sth in defense and thres no way scolari will give so much freedon to ronaldo, its not EPL
    and im pretty sure ronaldo will get lost in few years like ronaldinho did... matter fact ronaldinho was told also to be worlds best player ever so idk, in portugal ronaldo is one of 11
    but nice game, portugal will go at least till semis
  • and also, its funny how POKE to ronaldu is faul and handball from portugal is nth.. its just i think not fair..
  • turkey did ok to hold portugal till the 60th minute then i was dissaopointed with the way they tried to attack. tuncay was uselless nihat got no help up front. anyways i think ronaldo didnt do much pepe did great. portugal are the clear favorites in my point of view looking at the performances like in the last 10 eyars they deserve acup now should be the time.
  • [quote comment="18999"]Turkey really deserved to win this they played so well and almost held of the cheating portugese bastards[/quote] fuk off u twat
  • fuk off twat
  • Portugal deserved to win. They put the ball in the back of the net mroe than the Turks, and it really is as simple as that.

    My opinions...
    Group A - Portugal and Czechs move on
    Group B - Germany and Croatia move on
    Group C - Italy and France move on (Holland is overrated)
    Group D - Spain and Greece move on

    The final will be Germany or Portugal vs Italy, France, or Spain
  • Portugal4Life...France lost to greece in the quarter final in 2004. kinda hard to make it there without scoring one time, dont you think...They won the first game 2-1 as a matter of fact, so that's at least 2 points...Please check your facts and don't embarass yourself...Let's also stay on the subject of the video on the page of the comments...Good luck to all teams.

    Your assessment of Ronaldo is ridiculous - he has shown his mettle in all forms of club football and now he is showing it in the Euro ...with whatever freedom he is given he is capable of making an impact. Dunt forget the second goal was the result of a move initiated by him.
  • hey Portugal4Life...
    talking about choking in the final? wasnt it portugal who lost IN THE EURO 2004 FINAL??? to GREECE?! IN PORTUGAL!!!

    and you say france didnt put one goal on the scoring sheet for the entire euro 2004? they scored 7 goals. 2 vs england, 2 vs croatia, and 3 vs switzerland

    check your facts mate before you post something
  • hey Portugal4Life...

    talking about choking in finals...wasnt it PORTUGAL who lost to GREECE in the last euro??? i just love to see CR cry like he did.

    and talk about scoring goals...france scored 7 GOALS in the last euro. fcuking retard. check your facts mate before you post anymore rediculous sh!t ever again.
  • Hey Ryan I don't know about you but I'd rather lose the way Portugal did than winning the way greece did.
  • hey greece_fan...in football, a win is a win. no matter what, football is all about results. which is what greece did and portugal didnt do. i was proud greece won b/c they beat france, so for them to win, it meant something to me as a les bleus fan. portugal had their chances to win that final, but they couldnt get results, a simple own goal or pk for portugal, and everybody in the world would be hailing them as the best ever. greece was under rated and they earned their goals (im not saying no other team didnt either).
  • A team may figure out how to control the power house players of portugal to stop them some time in this championship. However, on top of them having power house players, the rest of the players on that team play at the same level it seems and connects very well.

    Lol @ Turkey deserving to win it, thats as realistic as the turkish defender who fouled gomez deserved not getting a foul called against him, better yet thrown out.

    :d

    I downloaded it - it's wicked! I chose England (apparently, they kicked out Romania to put England in there :) )

    Can't wait for England vs France today - better than Romania France. I love the training games.

    why should i be frustrated when Portugal played the best football so far...no reason m8.
  • Turkey could have got a point here tbh.
  • If he keeps up his form, hell definitely join the legends. But greatest of all time? It is possible for him to do so, but he will have to play consistently well throughout his career, and he cant get complacent. Im not saying it isnt possible, but he has many many years ahead of him and he will have to deliver regularly as Maradona, Zidane, and Pele did.

    Nice win for Portugal, great show. Maintain possession and build the attack and open the game up. Turkey had possession, but didnt do anything with it, a shame for them.

    you most be kidding right????
    Best players ever rank from number one to three:
    Péle(brazillian)
    Eusébio(portuguese)
    Maradona(argentinian)

    Zidane...lol wtf...you kidding dont ever compare zidane to others much better ever....

    we have the best players from defence to the atacking midlle field...simao..quaresma..nani..ronaldo..(MOUTINHO...yeah keep your eyes on him...he will be soon 1 of the best...ahah and more we have most of the most worthy players...

    YES PORTUGAL RULES...YES WE WILL WIN...YES IM PROUD TO THE PORTUGUESE...YES IM A FANATIC...YES I RULE AND YOU(i MOST SAY) SUCK...LOL IN YOUR FACE!!!!!!!!!!!

    Spam protection: Sum of 7 + 9 ? WTF????????
  • CR7 mustbe pick the first freekick so it will be 3-0
