So, it will be a wonderful final with our deer italian friends But for now, let us live our hard victory!

Good night everbody, I will go out for a while

I don"t used to be arrogant... but...

WHERE ARE YOU PORTUGUESESSSSSSSSSSSS...........................

I HEARD YOU A LOT BEFORE THE GAME.........

NOW IT'S TIME TO PLAY GERMANY FOR THE 3RD PLACE.... HAHAHAHA

i loved ronaldo diving and ronaldo crying... so beautiful... like a girl...

NOW IT'S TIME TO CELEBRATE OUR VICTORY...........

There's no merit to winning in penalty shots when you've had an extra man on the pitch for more than half the game.

I am sorry...but if you start to talk about grammar, So I 'll write french. (next thing, take care What I write to don't look stupid)

Sorry again !

How did you miss them ! They don't stop complaning the referee

ahahah. Forgot the game with Holland? If there´s a team here with merit is Portugal. Because today´s referee owes us one penalty. That was the fairer result so that both teams could continue fighting for the victory with a more merituous result.

REFEREE REFEREE REFEREE.... ALWAYS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE REFEREE... PLZ STOP CRYING MAN...YOU LOOK LIKE RONALDO...

yes you right..and you want a scoop, I personaly paid the referee to make us win !! hahahaha...so what will you do?

Which dive do you think merited a penalty? There were so many im not sure which one your refering to.

I think the eleventh dive of the second half... no?? LOOOOOOOOL

Congratulations to the winners. France did a better job at holding than Portugal did at scoring. That's the way the game goes.

The french as the all world saw were the ones that dive in that penalty. The all world also saw Ronaldo being kept behind in the big area. But you just see what you want, and the game is over. I´m really not interested in crucvify the referee. We should have score but we dind´t, that´s what matters now. What realy amuses me is to have won against England. People like you make me feel that way. Go France. Show that you deserve to win without penalties nex time. Go Italy show what latin players value.

Hey man dont all gang up on one man just cause he is telling the truth. Yes today the ref did seem to be on frances side. But portugal deserve that scince the ref was in their favour when they played the english. And they still needed pens against a side with one less player. And scince france beat the odds on favourite to win the tournament ( Brazil ) i do believe they deserve to get to the final ahead a bunch of cheats.

I also think they deserve but not for today´s match. And by the way, Brasil this WC didn´t play ANYTHING, even Portugal would beat it. But that doens´t mean France doesn´t deserve to be here. To play against a team with one man less means nothing. With holland we played almost everygame in disadvantage and win the same. Those are bad arguments.

i must be the only person posting who thought it was a pen
he clearly caught henrys trailing leg
but even if it wasnt portugal deserved it to go against them
fat phil scolari was a joke at the end
so was ronaldos diving in the box but he did play well
anyway im glad portugal didnt go through diving and cheating is endemic in their game and needs
to be stamped out
seeing ronaldo crying made me feel slightly better i laughed my head off
see ya portugal

I can see it's a real war in this forum about cheats and dives! lol About that, during that match, Arsène Wenger (who was one of the french commentators of that match) said a funny thing! After a dive from a portuguese player, he said: "that portuguese team have risen with Maradona's hand of god", that was funny! Hey, now that I'm on earth, thinking about that, I wonder if Miguel has not injured himself while diving (I'm not joking!). It would be funny, maybe he has condemned his team himself, but we will see that tomorrow in a retrospective of the match.

Anyway, Portugal doesn't need to do those little things to be a good team, C.Ronaldo is a great player, he doesn't need to do such things, what a deception! It was clear that Portugal was a good team with very good midfielders!!! But unfortunatly, they miss real strikers to finish their actions...

Yeah, Wenger should tell his taem to cut out the diving. Mind you, Fabregas will be at Real next season

I think it was a penalty, Well done to the french!

Congrats to France, I'm really happy for Zizou (who is a great and modest player with many sympathizers even in Germany) to play the final on Sunday!



Sorry, but I didn't see a "great match" tonight and also no "powerful" and "spectacular" Portuguese team! In my eyes they played harmless without any risk, even after the lag (only 1 striker against that strong defence from France)... I admit they were cheated by the referee (you simply can't give such a ridiculous penalty in a WC semi final!)...but nevertheless they didn't play good enough to reach the final.

France didn't impress me, too, this evening as they only defended their lucky lead. If they want to beat Italy, they'll have to improve a lot!


PS: Portugal has got some great divers.

What makes me laugh is that when some of us were saying that the england portugal match was unfair we got moaned at, saying, you lost, get over it, we didnt cheat etc... but now france have beaten portugal the tables have turned, hypocrits... pur hypocracy... oh that wasn't a penalty, bla bla bla... The better team won, why is there no merit in winning from pentalty, its all part of the game. surely if there is no merit in that, then there is no merit in winning from pso's??!! when two hours of game was played, and, half was played with a man down... Viva La France! hahaha
