That's plural.

There was only one Ronald on the pitch. :think:

It's a bit sad that there are 50% more replies on the politics footy thread.

If there was a thread about lawn mowers in there, some fuckers would argue to the death.

Felix and Danilo also threw themselves to the floor quite spectacularly more than once during the game with minimal/zero physical contact ;)

Portugal did well to hold onto the win and if the sneaky Ghana striker hadnt slipped when he nicked the ball off the keeper in the final minute could have been a (another) shock :thumbup:

I didn't see the Brazil game, but i did see the goal from the angry lad... That was a superb bit of finishing from him wasn't it.

It has potential to be not the most amazing game if the Welsh sit back and don't attack massively.. but if they throw everything at it, they could pull of both a momentous result and game.

They certainly have a better, and more spirited, national anthem than the English. Good to watch. :thumbup:

Of that there's no doubt is there... they show a real passion both at Rugby and Footy tournaments.

I thought they'd play a lot better... they could have easily been losing !!! When you consider how easy England found Iran, the Welsh must be worried about the next game too !
