Luis Enrique has a strong Barca bias and it's showing with his braindead decisions, turned the team into Barca lite but forgot Spain doesn't have a Messi to saves their asses every time.

Just a bad fit for the team, Del Bosque's corpse could've done a better job.

Eh, I imagine it had more to do with him being the captain and the rest of the team being a bunch of 15 year olds unused to that kind of pressure.

But still, Busi is one of the worst finishers in football so it should have never happened

he looked like the Japanese players looked yesterday. He just wanted it over and done with.

What a bloody pussy Morata is. You are the only striker there and you hide behind guys who've probably never kicked a penalty in their lives. Fati should've taken one too imo. Better shots than Soler and arguably Sarabia. But most of all, they couldn't bring themselves to bring along Ramos at least for potential penalties Laughing

joke of a manager

But it was Luis Enrique who invited these 15 years olds, he's fully responsible for this disaster of a team, what has Ansu Fati done to deserve a place in the squad?

Well at least now he can go back to coaching Barca C where he can freely masturbate to La Masia flops.

by Pedram Tue Dec 06, 2022 7:43 pm

Pepe

what a legend ffs

This is why Spain should've brought Ramos.

by BarrileteCosmico Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:11 pm

~~Brace~~ Hattrick for G Ramos, who came in for CR. Will CR ever start again? hmm

^Brazil

^Portugal

Colonizers and colonizees uniting in jogo bonito

by Casciavit Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:26 pm

Portugal have found the key for success. They’re going all the way now. Piss easy knockout rounds and benching Ronaldo and Cancelo. There’s no stopping them ffs.

by BarrileteCosmico Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:28 pm

5 goals Sommer let in. Wherever @rwo_power is, I hope she's ok

by Myesyats Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:30 pm

so who is buying Goncalo Ramos then?

Unless you have prime Xavi you can’t win the World Cup playing tikinaccio. You need difference makers who can change the pace in attack and they had no one. When your first two penalty kick takers are Sarabia and Soler you know you have a problem.

I agree (sadly). Incredible that with so many chances they couldn’t put it in the net and then with penalties, we get a very clear sight that one of them , even in penalties can put the ball in net. The biggest issue with this team is the lack of a break out star and sad fact that it wasn’t coaches fault, as there isn’t high caliber players in spain at this time!

by Lord Awesome Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:41 pm

Portugal have 2 really good strikers. Finally Ronaldo is not alone.

by halamadrid2 Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:58 pm

Where was Switzerland's fight today? They were softer than South Korea ffs

Great game Portugal. Still think Morocco will go through tbh

by BarrileteCosmico Tue Dec 06, 2022 9:03 pm

Morocco has no chance. Their 2 starting CBs are out of the Portugal match due to yellows

by halamadrid2 Tue Dec 06, 2022 9:10 pm

BarrileteCosmico wrote:Morocco has no chance. Their 2 starting CBs are out of the Portugal match due to yellows

One is out due to yellow card accumulation. The other might be injured.

Still think they go through. They are carrying the weight of their nation, arab league and the rest of Africa on their shoulders. Ziyech is defending more than he has ever done in his career. Bono who is usually a clown is having a terrific WC.

Na, can't see anything other than a Morocco win I am afraid.

by Myesyats Tue Dec 06, 2022 9:13 pm

CR needs to remain a last 15-min sub tbh

by Warrior Tue Dec 06, 2022 9:14 pm

I read from credible sources that Portugal FA has deposited an official protest, to prove all 6 goals were in fact scored by Cristiano Ronaldo

by halamadrid2 Tue Dec 06, 2022 9:16 pm

No football for 2 days Mad

by Helmer Tue Dec 06, 2022 9:19 pm

Hopefully that will give some reality check to Ronaldo for his own sake. Not s big fan but neither a hater, but it will be sad the way his career might end if he doesn't realize his level now. Either get get benched or simply play for a team and a league where he can dominate.

The Piers Morgan interview showed he still think he's the best player in the world. He tried to control the narrative by doing an interview about the United benching, but how do you control it when your team won 6-1 without you? Laughing

To be fair I wasn’t counting on Ronaldo being benched. Portugal without him is a completely different animal.
