Euro: Round of 16 - Portugal v. Slovenia - Jul. 1

I can't believe a team with so many great right backs plays Nelson freaking Semedo

Sesko's miss there means Portugal will win this. It will have given the Portuguese the faith that god is on their side, which they had probably started to doubt when Ronaldo missed the pen. Sounds dumb, but in football minor things like that shift confidence.

Sesko really to go further wide than head on. Keepers at this stage would have had a harder read at an angle.

 

[Juve]

Remember when strikers were taught to try to go around the goalie? I remember.

 

[Carlzner]

Sesko's just already in form as the Arsenal 9

 

[HeHateMeFrisbee]

This really has been pretty dreadful

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

God... the replay even makes that miss look worse. He had acres of space behind to go around the keeper.

In fairness, over 115 minutes played, dudes are gassed and not thinking straight .

 

[Tryamw]

More pens

He was probably really gassed.

 

[Blender]

Another chance for a Ronaldo miss/save.

 

[Evilo]

I don't even care how the game ends and who advances, and I'm not ashamed to say it: my estimation of Cristiano Ronaldo as a man just f***ing plummeted.

It hadn't before?

 

[ItsFineImFine]

Taking Vitinha off was one of the dumbest subs of the Euros so far, only orchestrator they had.

 

[HeHateMeFrisbee]

My god if he misses again...

 

[Karterthadon]

Doesn't matter who wins, neither are beating France

It's a quote from Sopranos

 

[Apex Predator]

Who’s the last good Portugal manager? Luis scolari?

 

[Karterthadon]

Ronaldo usually kicks last, it might not even get to him

 

[Evilo]

Doesn't matter who wins, neither are beating France

Wouldn't bet on it.

It’s not like France has looked good. I can see either of them beating France. I think it’s going to be another boring game whoever France plays.

Could try the Southgate approach and shoehorn in 3 RB's

 

[Jussi]

SAVED!

 

[Apex Predator]

Shades of euro 2004 Ricardo!!

 

[Very Stable Genius]

Terrible.

 

[Jussi]

CR7 scores.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Slovenia have no pen takers.. Illicic was the guy I felt best about
