portugal are rotten. can't believe croatia lost to them.

I sometimes wonder why teams don't go out  in extra time and really try win it rather than letting the game go to the  lottery of penalties.  As someone who backed Croatia to win it i wish they did just that now and see how their luck was in the penos  ;D

Croatian right full back cost them. Don't know was it tiredness but he was hopeless in extra time and lost the ball for the counter that led to the goal. Rakitic disappointing too. Feel sorry for Modric.

I also expected the Croatians to win but they were rubbish tonight. They played a tactical game waiting for the Portuguese to come at them so they could hit them on the counter attack. The Portuguese had the same idea so we ended up with a stalemate until the late winner.

I have to say most of the games have been utter tripe

I think if neither team scores after ET, they should both go home.

Look what happened when Croatia finally did decide to go for it in ET.
