Disappointed that Bale didn't score, still hoping that he gets the Golden Boot. It's difficult to complain too much though. :)

correct about everything
how wales will play against portugal without ramsey (surely they will try to appeal the yellow?) is going to be interesting.
 
Hate this anti-football from Wales/Iceland. Small countries just packing men behind the ball and setting up shop. It's nearly impossible for a team to crack 10 guys in front of goal. Offensively they hope to get lucky on a counter or a fluke play. Hope Ronaldo destroys Wales.

What? I didn't see Iceland game, but Wales played very well. Just look at stats. What "anti-football"?

You have to be trolling.

WTF? Wales and Iceland are more fun to watch than Portugal, probably the most boring team of the tournament that didn't win a single match.

Underestimating a team that (technically) hasn't beaten anyone yet this tournament? Ok.
Technically they won the previous match.
Bookmakers don't make the rules, a win during the extra time is counted as a win.

Still I agree with you that Wales has all of their chances against Portugal. :)

Wales are currently the top scorers in the tournament.

I admit I did not watch the 1st half, just the complete 2nd half. Wales was definitely parking the bus for 45 minutes.
Um yeah no shit you have one of the best offensive teams in front of you and you're winning in a loser goes home match.

Doe any one here understand what tactics are?
 
Neither team played classical anti-football.

Against England, Iceland did play anti-football. England was in Iceland's defensive third for about 90% of the match.

Wales however played respectable today. They had good periods of possession and were clinical with their finishing.

GAF WHAT THE HELL!

Robson-Kanu taking out 3 defenders with a Cruyff turn. What is going on... I can't even process this!

Bale vs Ronaldo in the semis.

Keep saying Wales is favorite. It suits us, Portugal prefers being the underdog.

I would cheer for Wales though but Portugal is still in the game. If we lose I root for a Iceland vs Wales

More total attempts and shots on target and 48% ball possession is now "anti-football". This fucking thread man...

Wales just outplayed Belgium. If they play like this against Portugal they'll win.

Have you watched Portugal? Has the best player in the world and the best youngest player, yet they play the worst footbal.

It takes actual skill to play destructive football.
