Neowin's Official World Cup 2006 Thread

Yea!!! Portugal! I want to see everyone talk down Portugal now!

About time the Brits go on vacation; bunch of trash talkers.

Bright green and bright red, bit camp really, isn't it? :/

[kaffra]

we're going home :'(

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.

No they waren't. They were just defending.

whatever floats your boat...

u guys r sore losers anyway... we beat u fairly...

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'.

I guess the dutch fans supporting england will have to wait until (at least) the next game.

Portuguese were stronger this time!!

Go BRASIL !!

[L3thal Veteran]

Aside from Martyn (great guy), I want to see the rest of the Brits who talked crap about Portugal and said they would whoop us because we were without two of our starters.

Where are you? :laugh:

[C]

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.

[WebMotiva]

go england go!

..go home :D

Beckham is pure marketing. No talent.

A team needs more talent than bombs.

English players never smile. They are always sad and mad.

Smile more!

Go Brazil & Portugal!

Oh no, the English are the only players in the world who do not ask for cards...such angels :rofl:

[ctebah]

Portugal definitely deserved to win. Hands down.

Portugal > England for all of the match, but not by much, that's why it "ended" 0-0

But then the "magical" Ricardo solved it :D

Brazil and Italy are my last hopes... sigh

[MGS4-SS]

Does this mean that the England banner will be removed? About time, England was not that much of a good team (compared to the ones in the semifinals and Brasil).

Go on Portugal!

How can you actually say that? Beckham has no talent?

Please turn of your computer.

Well put. Lets see some real action now from Germany - Brazil final!

[MarkMS]

Never knew Neowin supported trash. Better remove the banner from the front page before new users find out.
