With 5 minutes to go we see how they can play football if it wasnt for the bloody negative managers
 
So far the so called 'big matches' have all failed to live up to the hype. Big hopes for Spain V Croatia and France V Switzerland tomorrow?

No I didn't think so.

All eyes on Tuesday then Germany V England normally a good game, but with a rubbish outcome.

Bruno Fernandes annoys me every time I see him play. Very skilful but play acts all over the place and always trying to influence the ref.

Is it learned behaviour? I don't know what he was like before he joined United, but he's certainly had this behaviour reinforced since. Because a lot of the time he tries it in the PL and the ref is influenced. I think we should use foreign refs for the PL, but that's a discussion for another day.

A lot of the Portugal team act similarly and Ronaldo was doing it before he joined Utd, though it probably got even worse there.
I think it's fairly normal behaviour for Liga NOS, especially at any of their Big Three.
Fernandes is a particularly bad example, though. A web search for "Bruno Fernandes dive vs" gives about a million options.

45 yard OG. Brilliant.

Up there with Everton's Sandy Brown diving header OG donkey's years ago.

For those too young to know or remember, we'll worth a Google. <ok>
