England won the WC once, give a bit of chance to the other teams.:laugh::

I'm sure your proud of the way the ref gave you that semi-final game against Portugal when you won it:whistle::

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:

I thought England was making a fair chance yet they didn't take it. I'm done, put a fork in me. :laugh:

You can retaliate back at me, but in a civil manner. What you posted violated rules 4-5, so take a look at them before posting.

Portugal!

:laugh: @ beckhome crying like a wuss :rofl:

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

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

How is that any civil ?

Men can cry i think nearly every team had some players who cried because they have heart.

Oh yea? Funny you say that and your fellow Brits go around with a picture of Ronaldo from 2004 when he was crying poking fun.

Good one :rolleyes:

I am not a huge fan of football but I love world cups. I love the quality of the football played. I swear I am so ****ed of with England. These players get millions in salaries and yet they failed on penalties. Bunch of whips and ****ing ######

You can see in their eyes that they weren't confidant. As a England support and a football supporter, it hurts to see the quality of skills shown at penalties. Ricardo stopped three boy England goal keeper never came close.

I guess it's about time enough is enough England has to improve skill wise...

Crouch didn't do a **** and boy I hate the media the way they make this players double good once they score....

Urm well i never saw that i don't really support a english football team except for England it self.

Not every English supporter is bad you know.

it looked like the guy that got stepped on closed his legs when rooney's foot was there, which gave no option for rooney to avoid it...

england is clearly the better team... they dont fake injuries as often as portugal

Fake injuries? Oh my... Why is that everytime Portugal wins, the brits come always with the same whinning? Are ALL the referees incompetents??

Let's see the statistics of this game, shall we? England vs Portugal statistics here. Check the nr. of fouls by England (21) and by Portugal (10); Ball possession: England 43%, Portugal 57%; Actual playing time: England: 33, Portugal: 43. Click on the link for more stats.

England didn't play well. It seems that their only interest was to make penalties. Why do you guys don't talk about the number of divings that english players made in order to get a penalty?

I know this is an english forum and that the main participants are from England, US and other english speaking countries. But it seems that there are many people here who get influenced by a few english fans and don't think for themselves.

Anyway, time to go out and celebrate!

England, YOU ARE GOING HOME!

*click*

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
