We have to blame (and I sure do) our goalkeeper Ricardo, who played horribly throughout the competition and who I always disliked. Once again, as with Greece in the final four years ago, he got out of the goalmouth in a situation where he was not sure he could get the ball and Germany scored there, once again, against the flow of the match, after 20+ minutes of pressure closing in on the 2-2. Portugal played well, I could say "better" than Germany, but playing defense also counts. Bye Scolari, bye Ricardo.
Oh and what a fantastic game by Deco, an amazing player, he was everywhere and he ran a marathon.
You are a real sportsman, thanks for your congratulation.
I think we've seen a super thrilling match, great fight from all players, both teams would have deserved to win.
Deco was excellent in my opinion, but Arne Friedrich did an excellent job against Ronaldo.
What made the small, small difference in my opinion was that to me it seemed that the Germans had the slightly better tactic, more team orientated.
But I'm sure if the Portugueses had made it to go into extra time they would have won.
What a great game.
you can't write it's nothing personal, since you nearly comented every single word i wrote hear.
