Michael Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Fernandes with a lowly struck penalty into the corner. Oblak was flat footed. Quote
Carnivore Chris Posted July 1 Posted July 1 (edited) Slovenia were never going to win on pens. They have nothing to offer other than defending and hoping for the best, if we are honest. Stealing a late goal to win or winning on pens was never going to happen. Edited July 1 by Carnivore Chris Quote
Michael Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Vrbic has his penalty saved by Costa! Costa has saved 3 penalties in a row! Quote

Moderator Tommy Posted July 1 Moderator Posted July 1 Well it was obvious how that's going to end. Slovenia only know how to defend. 1 Quote
Administrator Stan Posted July 1 Author Administrator Posted July 1 Shame for Slovenia but they were terribly poor penalties. Costa done well to save all of them. Quote
Michael Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Portugal have Diogo Costa to thank for this win! What great penalty saves by him! Quote
Moderator Tommy Posted July 1 Moderator Posted July 1 It's a shame that either Spain or Germany go out on Friday, when you have teams like France, England and Portugal still in the tournament who play absolute ass. Quote

Redcanuck Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Harsh on Slovenia, but great goal keeping from Costa. Have to admit with 4 Portuguese players on my fantasy team, I needed Portgual to win. Quote
6666 Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Diogo Costa the hero of the game. Keeping a clean sheet in a shootout is some going. Quote
Dr. Gonzo Posted July 1 Posted July 1 I guess if scoring goals is your weakness, penalty shootouts are awful. Quote
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted July 1 Subscriber Posted July 1 Costa takes all the applauds for this one. Not only did he do what he did in the shootout but he stopped a goal earlier too. MOTM easily for me. Quote

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 1 Subscriber Posted July 1 That was at least interesting but there's been some dour football served up in this round after the beautiful chaos of most of the group stages. Quote
Machado Posted July 1 Posted July 1 1 hour ago, Whiskey said: Roberto Martinez refuses to take Ronaldo off the coach when they get back to the hotel. He's properly fucked it, he's been dogshite all tournament. Shooting from mad angles, taking free kicks from about 368 yards and just generally being a bit of a dickhead. He's absolutely done at this level. He refuses to accept it's over for him. Surrounded by yes man, no one in his family to tell him enough is enough, cries on the pitch every other game. All very sad to see. Portugal show a lot of incompetence playing against teams who sit deep. We played one open game, against Turkey, and that brought the best out of us. I think the game against France goes to pens again. 2 Quote

That is just international tournaments KOs rarely continue the momentum of the group stages. Quote
