Fuhh...what a long football game today. Choosing which team to support is surely difficult since both England and Portugal have great football players. With Rooney out of the game during the first half, England seems to lose their sparks in the game and keep wasting ball across the field. Portugal is definitely more interesting to watch. They, after all, have more posession of the ball.
After middle of the game, I favor the Portuguese(but still hoping Owen can do his magic). But I was fuming mad when Figo(my hero!) was called off field and was replaced by Postiga. Nasib baik larr Postiga managed to score the first goal. I guess it was all tactic and pressure on Figo for his golden moment that result to the substitution. But if Rooney and Figo played till the end, I bet it would have been more entertaining.
Penalty was surely depressing. Beckham failed his penalty. Again! It must be a depressing moment for him (or a chance for him to get all the attention by the press). A miss from Vassell confirmed that England will have to say goodbye. Rivaldo completed the winning-kick, placing a spot for Portugal in the semifinal. Phew... Portugal cho habis!
I already placed an order for an England shirt. I should probably check out that Figo jersey too...hehe. |
