Wales vs Portugal, European Championship semi-final, Weds 6 July, 8pm

[big eejit]

Portugal take off their best player. Think they've got it won.

 

[agricola]

Sod it, give it another fifteen minutes and if we haven't scored go full Spurs.

 

[Tony_LeaS]

Gotta give it to that Sanchez fella, got a looot of potential for just 18.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Gonna be a very frustrating last few mins now

 

[Mr.Bishie]

15 mins...tick tock...

You watch him go to Man U

Portugal take off their best player. Think they've got it won.

Seems a mad decision.

 

[Dandred]

Well played Wales! We have had heart, passion and dedication by our players.

We couldn't have asked more from them.

I'm proud to be WELSH.

 

[Mr Retro]

Has Bale a few quid on Portugal

 

[editor]

Phew!

 

[big eejit]

Cool head Gareth, keep a cool head.

 

[Tony_LeaS]

Referee to Silva: Get off the pitch or I send you odd for time wasting.

Silva starts jogging

Wales have been crucified in midfield (no Ramsey), what do you expect?

 

[editor]

Great kick from Bale!

 

[Steel Icarus]

Bale's consistently given the ball away tonight, it's maddening
Need a goal NOW to set up the old grandstand finish

 

[TruXta]

Wales not getting down the flanks enough, too many failed attempts at threading it through the middle. Shame they couldn't capitalise on their first half performance.

 

[not-bono-ever]

that could have been goal of the tournament.

Could have been...

 

[Mr.Bishie]

<doffs cap to Wales>

A great Euro 2016 to reach the semi's!

 

[Tony_LeaS]

No foul?! You what ref?!

 

[Mr Retro]

Expect him to play better. He's awful tonight

 

[belboid]

okay, fuck it. The game is lost, now just break Ronaldo's legs.

 

[editor]

Wales have been amazing. We may be losing but we've hardly been outclassed.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Germany or France had better tear Portugal apart in the final, for the good of football.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Wales have been amazing. We may be losing but we've hardly been outclassed.

Wales have not been amazing tonight, sadly. Brilliant tournament but a match too far against, finally, a team who can defend properly.

 

[editor]

Makes you realise how important Ramsey was to the team.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

Expect him to play better. He's awful tonight

There's the bigger picture...see Ed's post ^^^

 

[TruXta]

As someone said up thread, could really have done with Ramsey tonight, the link up play between midfield and attack hasn't been to the standard seen when he was playing.

It's not been a great performance but we're in the semi final of the Euros and it's a game we might have won with a better rub of the green.
