The craziest thing I have ever seen. Obviously I am thrilled for the win, but I guarantee Figo gets suspended, Deco is gone, and Ronaldo may be unfit(that high tackle was a red card offence for sure)......So Portugal could be out their top 3 attacking midfield players, OOOUUCCHHH......And no Costinha either, he can be replaced by Petit though, and I think Petit is a better fir anyways. I am not looking forward to the England game though, I hate the English(sorry guys) and I can't see Portugal winning despite the fact that England looked like crap this morning.
the game itself was a debacle that was started by the Dutch. There was a play where the ref blew the whistle so that a Portguese player can be attended due to a injury. The ref blew the whistle, gave a drop ball, Figo backed away to let the Dutch guy kick the ball to the Portuguese, but instead of doing that, he just went on a run with the ball, then Deco decided to haul him down and gave a vicous tackle and was rightfully so carded for that. Yes, there was some skirmishes before that, but the game lost any control that it had on that play. The Dutch should be ashamed of that play.
All in all, the game and the reffing was brutal both ways, so KFF, you can't blame this game on the refs, because it wasnt one sided and for christs sakes, you were up a man on two different occasions, meaning you should have been able to tie it up then.
FORCA PORTUGAL.........this game will be talked about for a long time.
GET BETTER CRISTIANO!!!!
