Pepe has to be man of the tournament, right?

He's been a frickin' brick wall for Madrid at the end of the season and that form carried right over into the Euro. Just a phenomenal showing from him.

All I see is CR this Ronaldo that, but at the end of the day Portugal played better without him. Imho he should take this opportunity and retire from the national team.

Was somewhat expecting this. When Ronaldo left the others had to stand up and play like a team. I don't think France was happy with Ronaldo leaving, they didn't anticipate such a situation.

This idea that wins in overtime dont count is amazing
 
Nothing disgusting about Portugal winning. If you're a football fan, you know all kinds of things can happen in a tournament with knock-out games. Even Portugal winning the title with only 1 win after 7 games.

Congrats Portugal.

You notice Portugals defence got even better when Fonte and Cedric came in though...

Why are people shitting on Messi when it's a European tournament?

Cos Ronaldos the greatest and Messi's a cunt.

lol

Still not sure how they get to that number.

Guess Premier League clubs like to pay overpriced for overrated players

1) Club a really wants a player and has nearly unlimited funds
2) Club B doesn't want to sell.
3) World record transfer ensues.

Congratulations Portugal. I'm a little sad for Griezmann but I'm not that mad otherwise. What a game by Sissoko though. I miss him in Toulouse.

IIRC (coorect me if I'm wrong), it's the official way the scores are counted for the FIFA (and UEFA) rankings. The official score is set at the end of regular time. Overtime and penalties are just there because you need a winning team, it just replaced the coin toss there was before.

Absolutely
and neither did I when predicting the outcome ;|
Their team clearly functions better without him, it's blatantly obvious.
