bush Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 actually, these both were my favorites in euro 2004. too bad, that one of them will fall out in quarters. but, because there's deco and c.ronaldo i go for portugal. p.s. beckham&co rulez to ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/181675-england-vs-portugal/#findComment-2342969 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montage Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 England seems to have a few issues after Croatia too :( Tough one to call, but I hate people that bet against their country...

SIG Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Portugal 2 - 1 England Beckam will score for England with a non-existant penalty kick :p Maniche will score after a great play by Deco. Figo will score in a direct free kick. :alien: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/181675-england-vs-portugal/#findComment-2343218 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyder Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Rooney is a good player. but i think that if we play like we did against spain we'll win :) Go Go Portugal!!!

nyquist Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I dont really believe in all this rooney hype, but I gotta say, he played class in the game against croatia :) he played 10x better than the more experienced players in the england squad (beckham, owen, scholes etc), even though he's only 18! Hopefully he can do the same tomorrow :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/181675-england-vs-portugal/#findComment-2343451 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powa Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I voted for an England win, but I'm not really sure. We might have Rooney, but they have got Ronaldo who is class.

secretforce Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I've got two words "....IS A SHORT CHUBBY KID WITH ACNE" Are you retarded? Sorry but a comment like that is all I can think. If England played like they did against Croatia I see no reason why they won?t win. Lets hope Michael Owen gets one in the back of the net I still have faith in him. I?m guessing it will be about England 3 - Portugal 2, And England's secret weapon Roony will score most of them go:)s :) Its coming home..

MetaLRasaM Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 guys guys...ROONEY is kicking ass...cuz of OWEN! there is just so much attention on Owen...cuz ever1 knows what he can do...so that left Rooney wide open..and he took advantage of that...and now...ever1 knows what Rooney can do..so that will take sum pressure off Owen..and lets him get sum touches...Owen always has at least ONE defender on him..cuz hes one explosive MOFO! Owen is a big force in Englands offence...just like henry...lotta attention on him..didnt do **** Vs. England...Zidane scores a couple...now ever1 is payin attention to the BIG Z..and henry scores a couple in their last game...just watch...Owen is gonna have a big game...and if i was Portugal..i would be scared... and mann..Ronaldo..is a ball hug!! he can dribble..but cant pass if his life depended on it! he need 2 dev. his skills.. and again...GO ENGLAND!

Stingray Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Tough call... Owen and Rooney will have a tough time if Ricardo Carvalho is in Portugal?s starting lineup - best defender in Europe IMO: http://www.euro2004.com/tournament/players...1429/index.html But yeah... I?m portuguese and can?t predict the result. I think it will be a good game, though.

This is exactly what I am thinking. I think Owen is going to have less attention played to him, and will be much more free to do what he does best: score.

Kriz Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 It all depends on Figo and Ronaldo. We all know that Ronaldo performs every match, but Figo didnt really play well until the Portugal - Spain match. If Figo is playing well it will be a close, close match.

Apollo Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 The problem with Portugal is the attackers and that will continue with England but it's gonna be a close match anyway and i hope Portugal can play the same as they did with Spain and with a bit more luck they'll score 2 or 3 goals. kriz: you're forgetting deco which hasn't shown his full potential in this tournament yet.

The Prodigal Father Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 the way beckham and owen have been playing, england will be lucky to win. they can't rely on rooney alone, even though lampard has been better than I thought he was. oh, and david james is the weakest part of the team for england, i'm not saying he's bad, i'm just saying he's not great. Portugal 2-1 England C. Ronaldo and Maniche for Portugal. Rooney For England.

Very true, i want to see him play the way i saw him play in the Champions League, he was awesome. Im looking forward to seeing him at Chelsea next season.

ze-newie Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 @ your_hero, you're right, Beckham hasn't been playing that well recently, but I'm pretty sure the team isn't relying on him or Rooney. They play as a team! and you can't say Owen hasn't been great, sure he hasn't scored himself but he's the reason for a lot of the goals and opportunities. I think Rooney will score (again) and so will Owen, he's awesome, I agree with what MetaLRasaM just said. GO ENGLAND!
