How to sum that one up?

For 60 minutes no team dominated, there was some poor play by both sides, unfortunately as has been the primary highlight of this world cup, unfair play and poor refereeing decided the game.

Rooney was out of order, there was no question. You don't accidentally stamp on someones nuts. End of.

The disgrace that was C. Ronaldo took over from that point. I have never seen such a poor excuse for a man. I sincerely hope for his sake that he gets a transfer away from man utd and from english football. As a liverpool fan I cant stand Man U, but he really does not deserve to wear the shirt of one of the best teams in england (grudgingly said). To go down every time the wind blows is one thing, to actually run to the ref to try to get a club mate sent off is entirely another. Then to wink at the bench in a slight celebration is simply disgusting.

Congratulations to Portugal, well done for qualifying and for being better at penalties than England. We really never stood a chance when it went to pens, we never do, but thats our own fault.

However, If I was a portugal fan I would have a slighly bitter taste in my mouth at the way that certain members of the countries team performed. It is after all a sport.......much less could be said of some players.

Summed it up perfectly.

You would say that. Then again, so would we and most other teams' fans if their team won in these circumstances. In the words of Smith, 'It is inevitable'.

We are on about the England and Portugal match, right? If you call that fair, you are SERIOUSLY mistaken. The number of times I saw an utter ###### dive and clutch his leg when someone made contact with his foot....

Cheats. You didn't deserve to win and you know it. Ronaldo didn't deserve to be on that pitch, he's actually disgraced football. What a dick, with all that winking to the other team mates when he ****ed Rooney off.

      No updated SSD capacity, no updated specs (not surprised tbf), just nostalgia baiting! Bring back the boot sequence and the UI as an easter egg!

      Why? It will just cost so much more and make you PC poor and they become PC rich off your calamities! “Just because you can” isn’t a flex either!.

    • Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon by Sayan Sen In the modern digital workspace meeting recordings and summaries are very commonplace, still finding the right recap later can be surprisingly difficult. To address that inconvenience Microsoft is working on a new dedicated meeting recap application designed to bring all meeting recaps into a single, centralized location. In a recent announcement on its Microsoft 365 roadmap website, the company has confirmed the new applet and has explained how the new experience will work and why it believes it can help users stay on top of discussions without having to search through multiple chats, calendars, or files. For those unfamiliar, meeting recaps provide a summary of key discussions, decisions, action items, and other relevant information generated after a meeting ends. They are intended to help participants revisit important points while also allowing those who missed the meeting to quickly catch up on what happened. Traditionally locating older recaps could require users to navigate through various conversations or meeting histories. The new meeting recap app aims to simplify that process by gathering all available recaps into one dedicated hub. According to Microsoft, this should make it easier to browse past meetings, review outcomes, and stay informed about ongoing projects and discussions. One notable feature of the applet is the addition of quick filters which are meant to allow users to instantly narrow down the list of available recaps and surface specific meetings without manually searching through extensive records. Audio recap is also there. If you're wondering how long these recaps will last before self-expiring, the app will provide access to meeting recaps from the past 30 days or approximately one month. You can view the feature entry here on the official Microsoft 365 (M365) website under roadmap ID 564614. Its rollout is set to begin this month (June 2026). Do keep in mind though that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
