This match exemplifies the modern game.
Portugal, an extremely talented team, get a chance to show big brother Spain how it's done and they come out and play a game like that, 11 men behind the ball and no service to Ronaldo, one of the best players in the world. These coaches today are just clueless or scared.
If I'm a Portugal fan like VFF, I'm furious.

As much as I usually don't like Argentina I hope the do well. They are playing the game the way we want to see it. Maradona is coaching the game like it's the 80s again. Skillful, attacking play going forward.
I hope they get to the final playing like that, so more teams will copy.
