Jambooo Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 Reasons why England lost- rooney got hit by your player - beckham was off form - the pitch was SH1T - the ref was SH1T I agree. Who decided to make a sand based pitch anyway? This isn't the f*ckin desert...

Lycan Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 ehhh if you?re mentioning the ref as 12th men, then include the two linesmen, which would be 11 vs 14:DD Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/181675-england-vs-portugal/page/19/#findComment-2352465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSammyx Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 No - the pitch was rubbish. Owen said they had the same issue @ the other end yesterday, and yet nothing was done about it. Sven even complained to UEFA- this is the kind of thing that is so annoying about the game.We played 11 vs 12 tonight yea i aggree.. 11 english vs 11 portugese + 1 swiss Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/181675-england-vs-portugal/page/19/#findComment-2352466 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxicfume Veteran Posted June 24, 2004 Veteran Share Posted June 24, 2004 I really didn't think the ref was biased at all. Infact in the beginning I thought he was biased towards England, they seemed to be getting all easy fouls. While Portugal's posession of the ball was like..60-70% to like 40%-30% of Englands, but in the first half they didn't seem to be attacking alot. Too much defense England.

Plarkster Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 too funny how all the Britons complain about the referee and the penalty spot. Becks just could have stamped it down, too.I thought it was a really nice game though. :happy: I haven't got a problem with the penalties - the game shouldn't have even got that far as we won fair and square. I thought the Germany vs Czech 2nd team was nice aswell. :happy: :happy: At least you weren't cheated...

So England played a bit weak - so what. Thats not at stake here. The defence held strong -you have to remember that we lost one of the key parts of our winning team - Rooney. The simple fact remains that the quality of the game was aweful - not interms of play specifically, but in terms of the pitch, and the adjudication. And to say Beckham could have stamped it down - how was he to know?????

He leant towards Portugal in the first half with cards and penalty's, and gave a bad decision on the last goal. To me that didn't seem fair.

ian Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 It's sad to acknowledge your bad loosing. Posts like "Portugal burn" and similiar just show your real "you". In lack of valid arguments, you start insulting my country. It's typical. I'm not going that way. It's childish. You should hear what your coach, Mr. Ericksson and other english reporters said after the game. I really hope that you read tomorrow's european sports newspapers and sites to learn how to respect and to know something more about football and its rules.
