Coentrao had a pretty clear dive.

Postiga sucks, he must be infuriating the Portuguese fans

No kidding.
Late tackle? Sure. But nothing like a good leap and couple of rolls to sell it.

Not nearly as bad as the Denmark goalie rolling around after not getting hit at all in the earlier game - that got the play whistled down with Netherlands in a good position.

Are you serious? Where is the card for Nani? Definitely a foul. But he kept running and then went down.

I haven't been too impressed with either side in ths second match. Netherlands can beat eith of these teams, provided tat thy learn how to finish.

Not a good half. Germans showed flashes but not enough. Please get Podolski out of there.
Portugal is defending well. Should be 1-1. Pepe should have buried that and the ref should know what advantage is.

Seriously ... get a grip.
Nani's been carrying an ankle injury for most of the season. If he had went down you'd be crying dive.

If he goes down right away then whatever. But he only went down when he knew he wouldn't catch the ball.
Just so you know, I am saying dive! That is the definition of a dive

Why didn't you mention Neuer's acting job being deserving of a card? You must've been refilling your drink and missed it, right? Or was that the challenge you think should have been a red card. Confusing posts.

But we do want players, even if a bit hurt, to not go down right away and chase after the ball. But once the ball goes out of play then he can get some treatment.

Sure card him. Get rid of the dives. Still should have been a red on the striker. I've seen reds for that. Yellow for Neuer, red for Postiga. Done

I dedinitely agree. But I don't want players if they're a little hurt going down. I already said it was a challenge deserving of a foul. I want players to stay on their feet and not try and draw cards/fouls. If Nani is that hurt then he shouldn't be playing
Edit: or in the case of Nani. If your ankle hurts just go down for treatment. Take a knee. Don't flop over like that

Ummm the foul was being given either way.
That was a blatant last man tackle. Nani goes down straight away and there's an argument for a red. You should be thankful.
And I'm expecting UEFA to throw a huge fine in the German FAs direction for the behaviour of their fans.
