Danny Murphy is UNBELIEVABLY bad. Can't even pronounce the player's names right.

What was he on about saying it's ok that Clattenberg messed up

Well done to Portugal, beautiful country, lovely people and despite the blow of losing their best player early, defended well and got better and more threatening on the break.

BBC pundits have just given Robson-Kanu goal of the tournament. :rolleyes: It wouldn't even have been a contender if it hadn't been a Wales goal.

Only Shearer went for the far superior Shaquiri overhead kick.

Shaqiri's goal was quite obviously goal of the tournament. As you say, a lot of bias there.

I had a feeling France would choke when the big moment came, and they did. Portugal have been good defensively this tournament but France should have been able to beat them, especially once Ronaldo went off. Can't say I feel much sympathy for them, it seemed like Portugal had been written off before the match had even begun.

Think Deschamps made a mistake bringing Payet off. He's not the quickest but has that little bit of magic that can unlock a resolute defence. You knew as soon as France hit the post at the end of normal time that it wasn't going to be their night. Glad it didn't go to penalties, anyway.

Portugal are the one side who have disappointed me at every stage of the tournament. Had a relatively easy route to the final, haven't excelled in any game and have barely strung a few passes together all tournament. Quite disappointing to see such a lacklustre team win. Defensively they've been good but horrible to watch.
