What a dumbass.
UEFA should take a stand and ban him for life. Of course they won't, which is why this type of stuff will keep happening.

85% possession is pretty crazy, I don’t remember a game ever being that one-sided. I imagine it’s pretty high up there on the all-time records.

In case anyone else is wondering, the following link outlines the COVID protocols for each stadium. I was surprised to see a full stadium in Hungary.

https://www.ispo.com/en/know-how/uef...les-apply-fans

In Budapest, proof of immunization is required to enter. International fans need PCR test and proof of immunization.

Several locations have no precautions whatsoever, except reduced capacity. Crazy.

How often, or ever, are yellows handed out for dives/embellishments? Some of the stuff is just so over the top I can't believe the refs fall for it. It feels like it's just an acceptable part of the game when it really shouldn't be.

You'll pretty much only see yellows for diving when the dive is trying to get a penalty.

Quite the turn of events.

1-0 Portugal.

2 lucky bounces on 1 play. Ouch for Hungary.

Portugal desperately needed that, with France and Germany still to play anything but a win today might be a death blow.

Well that's a pretty cruel way to finish after a great effort by Hungary all game.

Unlike hockey, refs in soccer don't give a foul and embellishment, only one or the other. So usually, a non call the ref just lets play continue, unless it's an egregious dive.

A draw wouldn't have been the end of the world. 4 points will pretty much guarantee qualification. Some teams will probably go through with 3.

Ronaldo now the highest goal scorer in Euro history although in fairness Platini got all his in one tournament. This is Ronnie's fifth! Scored in all five.

175 international games. Shows what you can do when you don't drink coke! That third goal was just beautiful!

That didn't warrant a yellow.

Ironically, the same player that injured and put Belgium's De Bruyne in one in the CL final.

Germany's defense looking as shaky as expected.
