Fuck Nani that dirty scumbag.

 

[Croyles]

Lol wut

 

[Mattlikewhoa]

Really Nani?

 

[correojon]

well, if france can't win against such a "disgraceful" team they sure don't deserve it either, right?

At least France won some matches during the tourney and got more serious opposition.

Btw, I'm not french, but I think they'd be a more deserving champ than Portugal.

 

[Deleted member 125677]

Man this is boring

 

[sora87]

A Champion is never weak.

Seth Rollins' champion run says otherwise

 

[Shito]

A Champion is never weak.

But he can be lame.
Still, that means his opponents were even more lame.

They don't deserve jack shit if they can't win today.

 

[Lima]

That would make them a really weak champ.

It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning.

Vin Diesel

True story.

 

[zonezeus]

He got mothed

Yeah got injured early.

Killed by Payet around the 15th minute. If it was a foul is a matter of worldview

This is horrible news.

Spoiler

I really counted on those Ronaldo gifs...

 

[DSN2K]

Awful final, Portugal are bang average but they can defend somewhat and thats it. France just lack a top class forward.

 

[Uzzy]

That would make them a really weak champ.

So they'd be Seth Rollins?

 

[Mimosa97]

SISSOKO PRÉSIDENT

 

[chadskin]

I can't wait for 30 more minutes of this amazing game.

 

[DeadlyVirus]

This is horrible news.

Spoiler

I really counted on those Ronaldo gifs...

Oh, you're getting them...

That's why I said mothed...just think about it...moth...

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

This is going to pens isn't it

The fact FIFA has given up seeking an alternative to penalties is a bit depressing.

I bet if they played golden goal until somebody scores (WITH NO PENALTY SHOOTOUT), Portugal wouldn't be defending with six at the back.

 

[paperboywriter]

If France looses now..

 

[T-Rex.]

Good save

 

[Magic Mushroom]

I want Sissoko with the cup. Man of the match.

 

[texhnolyze]

That's not how a tournament works. It's a tournament.

 

[bjaelke]

Bringing Coman on was a good decision.

 

[dani_dc]

France got a lot more dangerous after decided to give up on attacking or even keeping possession of the ball in the opponents half.

 

[Oersted]

Folks, not sure if you know it yet, but...



Coman


DA


GOD

 

[oti]

I want a swarm of moths to eat all 22 players.

This ain't anime.

 

[Big-E]

Conan really is the real deal ain't he.

 

[Rhaknar]

Finally a striker >_>

 

[Pachimari]

Awful final, Portugal are bang average but they can defend somewhat and thats it. France just lack a top class forward.

Benzema! They should have brought Benzema.

 

[D4Danger]

That's exactly what would happen. Golden goal didn't encourage teams to attack and was absolutely shit to watch.

 

[Magni]

^ cause teams were waiting for penalties. Imagine unlimited golden goal extra time.

This is horrible news.

Spoiler

I really counted on those Ronaldo gifs...

There were a lot of those, don't worry.

 

[Matush]

I want a swarm of moths to eat all 22 players.

That would probably be more entertaining to watch than these pasf 75 mins.

 

[Reckoner]

Éder going in. Brace yourselves.

 

[skny]

Finally getting more exciting in the last 5 minutes.

 

[Oersted]

Was that 2 moths fighting?

 

[Fliesen]

"What's the score?" - yells my girlfriend from the bedroom, where she's watching 'Come dine with me'
- "0:0"
"When there's a penalty shooting, let me know!"

... Euro2016 in a nutshell

 

[Twookie]

zzzzz

 

[spekkeh]

Sheesh, the Portuguese team really are a bunch of waterboys without Ronaldo.

 

[T-Rex.]

Fucking nice one Giroud. Good defending.

 

[Johnny Cage In The Shower]

France may be the more skilled team, but Portugal is playing with more of a heart. Even if that passionate style of play involves pushing and shoving and fouling.

 

[sora87]

Omg giroud

 

[Mimosa97]

God played a trick on us the day young Olivier Giroud decided to quit his slow-mo capture class to focus exclusively on playing football

 

[correojon]

It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning.

Vin Diesel

True story.

Not true, there are ways to win and ways to win. The '96 Bulls will always be remembered by how they dominated the league that year.

Just do the pens before the extra time starts then play extra time. The team thay looses the p.k. shootouts will have a reason to attack then.

 

[Angel_DvA]

What are you doing Giroud...

 

[jimbobsmells]

Gignac sounds like a delicious liquor.

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

That's exactly what would happen. Golden goal didn't encourage teams to attack and was absolutely shit to watch.

Yeah, because the penalty shootout was still there.

If need be take a player off every 5 minutes after fulltime.

 

[GHG]

This is a fitting final for this tournament.

 

[Alebrije]

Cristiano Ronaldo not playing???

 

[His Majesty]

nearly an opportunity there for Griezmann, great block Giroud

 

[Jamie OD]

If a game ends 0-0 after 120 minutes then I think you need to use something as harsh as a penalty shootout to determine a winner. Playing conservative can only take you so far.

 

[paperboywriter]

That would probably be more entertaining to watch than these pasf 75 mins.

I mean it's not croatia-portugal but it's not very pretty.
