Not fair...

Not always the best wins. I wonder how many Euros were paid to that Russian ref. See you in South Africa.

GO ORANGE...!!!

especially a man up. Howcan you play that much of the game a man up and not score?

I thought Portugal deserved the win.

But the Ref such made it an ugly game.

Netherlands seemed to have control of the game, and I expected them to equalize...

The ref let too many calls go early, and eventually lost control...although frankly, I think a lot of the blame can be placed on the players also...(Figo's head butt, then the Dutch player giving him an elbow...etc). Once the cards started coming out, they all seemed to overdramatize trying to draw more cards...yuck to both sides.

The low class play that turned me to a Portugal fan was the Dutch player taking off with the ball after the drop ball! *** was he thinking?? And what was up with the Dutch player giving Deco the stare down on the sidelines...maybe he thought it was a hockey game.

Good match up, but disappointing game.
