Meier said: "It was a clear foul, the keeper was in his own area and must be protected and if it happened again, I would make the same decision.

"England are looking for a scapegoat and they are looking to blame me."

Amen. At least he agrees with me that England are looking for excuses just like Portugal looked for them in Euro 2000 in that penalty shot in extra time. I mean, even Italy are blaming the Swede's and Danes for their agreement to tie.

Get over it Italians and Brits, you guys are sore losers.

Holy sh*t.

Fernando Ferreira, the goalkeeper coach of Uni?o de Leiria, died in the end of the Portugal-England match, from heart attack. He was 37 but had colesterol problems. (That's why he stopped playing football at 2002/2003's season.)

Plus, about 130 people in the stadium had to be checked by medics.

They had strokes and anxiety crises.

This sux0r. f(~_~)

Thanks for that link ... My portugese skills are not that great :laugh::

Ok this will shut everyone up, its official the Urs made a mistake!  UEFA referee committee agreed that was indeed a goal and that Urs was in the wrong.  It's everywhere papers news etc.  So he DID make a wrong decision and Urs was supposed to referee the final but hes been cut because of his mistake.

Source?

Because the only story I could find is this:

http://breakingnews.iol.ie/sport/story.asp...4z9yzx&t=soccer

Where the committee is reviewing ALL quarter finals officials in order to make up their mind on who will ref the semi finals & final games.

England was wrong... and it was a foul. Get used to it and I am glad that England is out with an ego like this one.

and i heard dutch women were hot too, i say go Holland.

I feel sad for the portugal's goal keeper coach but at the same time they might play less powerful because they are saddened.

During Summer-time, Portugal gets tons of nordic women. ;)

That's the main reason we now get more male tourists. :crazy: Go away!

He wasn't the Portuguese goalkeeper trainer... He trained @ a club.

Actually, few people knew him. It's not going to afect the squad. [sh*t, this sounds very cold.]

The girl to guy ratio must have decreased :p

I have seen the same story in The Sun and The Daily Mirror. (OMG, how did I discover your trusted sources?!)

You people are very sad... Tssk, Tssk... Didn't that editors' mother told them that lying is bad? Uhm, wait... Nope, they're tabloids, that's the way they make money.

Oh well, if Elvis is still alive, Diana had an affair with the buttler and the Pope is an alien...

Actually I have the game recorded on tape, seen it over, and over, and over...

For the last time... do you see that small area marked near the goal?

This is the goalkeeper "safe-area", which means that he cannot be charged there.

If your stupid player did not charged our goalkeeper, Ricardo might not reached that ball! It could be a goal or not... You'll never know!

But no... he fouled him. Terry == D'oh!

ah well 20 pro refs cant be wrong.

WTF? Get a life.

It's impressive how people that work in Reuters don't have knowledge of anything like that, and your so-veritas "newspapers" have it.

I have seen the same story in The Sun and The Daily Mirror. (OMG, how did I discover your trusted sources?!)

Since it was on itv news tv then Reuters wouldnt have it.

It was a special report.

But I will be damned if I cant find a link somewhere... It shall come!!!

Safe area my arse!!

That rules out about a million goals ever taken from corners due to your lame argument.

Look at it frame by frame.

Look at who jumped at who!!!

As for the Sun and Daily Mirror (although the sun has an article on it) give me some credit will you!!! sheeesh :rolleyes:

Anyway you and me are gonna argue on this till the end of time..

So for the sake of it.. you are right and I am right.

There you go.. everyones happy.

The end.

So gods footie gift to Neowin.. whos gonna win tonight? ;)

So gods footie gift to Neowin... whos gonna win tonight? ;)

Thank you, sir. I am indeed a God! :alien:

By using my divine influence, I am prety sure that the swedish are going to win! For they have brought to Portugal a great team and great women!

:yes:

You bashers dont understand, yet try to present complex arguments that hardly make sense. Its simple, he wouldnt admit his mistake in public because of 2 main reasons:

1. It would cause an uproar of England fans.

2. He would certainly loose his job because of this one mistake.

So he stands by his decision even when he knows hes wrong to show the world "Yes! Im a referee who doesnt regret anything!" and thats what football referees do, they make a decision and they stick to it.

Boy, oh boy...

That really makes sense... if it wasn't one little detail: your player charged our goalkeeper in his area, not allowing him to give himself to the ball which means that there is no mistake and you keep pushing it!

Jesus W. Christ, only the Americans know how to make decent complots, these days... :crazy:

Boring hell no... this game was action packed with both sides having a good defense and offense. It was awesome to watch just because there are no goals doesn't mean that it isn't fun.

The penalties nearly gave me a heart attack but i will NEVER forget the smug face that Van Der Sar gave to the Sweeds when he blocked that shot. That was such an awesome look.

Go Holland

Orange Pride!!!

I thought it was a good game, not comparable to Portugal - England but it wasn't bad... I especially liked the last couple of minutes in the 2nd half and the extra-time... Sweden had some great chances there...

and we dutchies finally got lucky and won penalty kicks after 4 major tournaments... :D :D

[edit]

Thought some people would like this :whistle:

    • I'm content with my dual charger for now, but this actually sounds quite nice - and it's less expensive than I was expecting. As for the company, they can name themselves "Nazirapist" for all I care.
    • While I miss Outlook for a couple of small things, I use Thunderbird now because I don't like how MS wants to force you to change things.
    • Chrome has history of being the browser everyone uses because Internet Explorer sucks, not realizing that Edge changed that, but people got into the habit of using Chrome. I use Brave and I've never been happier with a browser. It does what it is meant to do and gets out of the way.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
