I don't want to sound like a bitter person, but I am going to anyway!
England were stuffed by a referee who lost his bottle at the crucial moments. To quote pundit Ian Wright 'the ref was a homer' and I don't mean Mr. Simpson!
It was asking a lot to protect a 1-0 lead from the 3rd minute onwards. You could always see Portugal scoring at some point, but to go that long and keep them at bay was agonising to watch. I thought it was all but over when they finally did equalise, they just looked so much stronger than us. And then for Sol Campbell to get the 'winner' in the dying minutes seemed almost too good to be true. Oh, hang on, it was too good to be true! Thanks ref!!!!
Ashley Cole and Sol Campbell had an outstanding game, Cole in particular. Beckham and Co. in the midfield were practically invisible. You can have Stevie G Mr. Abramovich if he's going to play like that!
Right I've got that off my chest, I think I'm going to root for the Czech's for the rest of the tournament!
Come on Baros....pretend you're wearing a red shirt!
