    Good and brave call by the coach of Portugal. Without Ronaldo's inflated ego and old legs, they have a better chance of winning.

        Ronaldo needs the nickname the Aussie Cricket Team used to give Kevin Pietersen: FIGJAM

          I would just cut him from the team. You can only tolerate an ego if the player is indispensable which is no longer the case

          Schär is having a mare on defence.

            This will require a comeback of vs FRA euros proportions. Portugal look way better.

              Portugal 2-0 up. Ronaldo can clean the players boots after the match.

                Portugal look seriously good. Might have to make them a title chance.

                  Ronaldo is trying to look happy when the goals are scored.

                    Don’t write his obituary just yet

                    When the tough challenges come he’ll be there

                        Brazil vs France or Portugal. That’s my final pick.

                              I don't think the Portuguese coach will be changing a lot regarding selections

                                I didn't see the game but there were predictions that Morocco could upset. I'll have to watch the penalty shootout.

                                Morocco missed some absolutely golden opportunities in extra time then Spain hit the post with time up.

                                But I can never understand how such well paid players can be so average at penalties.

                                Totally agree. I reckon with a couple of hours training 7 days a week I could routinely get the ball in the top square metre of either corner.

                                          The best Ronaldo scenario is Portugal v Argentina in the Final and Ronaldo has to sit on the bench as Messi scores a hat trick and holds the cup aloft
