Euro: Group F: Portugal v Türkiye

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Bayindir is not a stay-at-the-line keeper, he's very quick to put the ball in play with his feet. Again, YOU DO NOT PLAY THE BALL BETWEEN THE POSTS. That is the primary advice for defenders.

Again then that’s on the keeper for not knowing prettty much the Abc of keeping. It’s literally Sunday league level from him. Where was he running to? You keep saying that don’t pass the ball in between the posts, im not disagreeing which is why they’re BOTH at fault

But the defender has to look up where the keeper is. He had no reason to do a no-look pass there.

Palhinha NOT getting a card would be more of a surprise

lol yes … hence the both at fualt

No, the defender is the primary reason that happened. No pressure situation and the defender not looking at all.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Despite the score line a couple of bad moments. Turkey didn’t look out of place. They looked decent going forward.

As someone living outside the USA, can someone explain Lalas to me lol .

I keep seeing clips of him and various quotes and they are hilariously bad. Whats his story?

This one made me chuckle:

You mean you DON'T own one of his albums?

This man sings to?

Also just googled his footie career and didn't realize he was the guy with hair from back in the day...

The tactical view literally shows Bayindir coming towards the ball and all the defender has to do is do a little tap or let the ball go to him.

Finnish tv studio, with some former national team players, saying the same, never pass between the posts and always look where the keeper is before passing.

Leao with two yellows for diving and suspended from the next game.

Brutal start for Turkiye. They need to believe in themselves and believe they belong here. The own goal is just an example of losing one's nerve in a major tournament. They need at least 1 goal here. I think they are capable of that, but they can't lose their nerve.

 

[Jussi]

BRUNO!

RONALDO PASSED!

 

[Juve]

Did I see right? Ronaldo passed a ball?!? The end is near folks!

 

[Ceremony]

Is this what Scotland vs. Germany was like?

 

[Jack Straw]

“Unselfish” and “Cristiano Ronaldo”… never heard those words used together before…

 

[cgf]

Little Portugal may have been the better option. Better looking women, and I wouldn't be fearing for my life.

Turkish women can be insanely beautiful…and even more insane

Is this what Scotland vs. Germany was like?

I’m biased, but IMO the Turks are way more in this match than the Scotts were that one.

What a tournament Own Goal is having.

Own Goal is the only chance to stop Musiala from claiming the golden boot.

It's the "insane" that I'm trying to avoid before I scamper home.

Then you shouldn’t have gone to a Turkish place

Own goal did his best work today too. Outside of the box and around the keeper.... Great strike, simply can't be taught.

I hear Real Madrid have already agreed personal terms with him.

He’s surely going to get a move to a bigger league after that beauty.

I thought he may want to go a club like Brighton to hone his craft for a few seasons.

Would have been a good step for him before a move to a massive club like Real.

I can't deal with this new way of pronouncing Turkey.

Sounds too much like Darren Dreger describing what he had for Thanksgiving dinner.

I've wondered if more countries are going to opt to use their actual names and not the English versions.
