gg british tabloid press insisting on the anti Portugal propaganda, get over it now, ok?

Every team in this world has players that dive and protest, its sadly a part of the game these days to take advantage of the ref's decisions, is it hard to understand?

netherlands dived much more against Portugal, why insisting on labeling us as a cheating team? we are just like everyone else...

jesus...

its completely prepostorous to put the Miguel incident there, the man got a serious knee injury, Pauleta was too busy trying to play to notice how Miguel fell, he sends him the ball, sees the guy on the ground he obviously protests, as any one would, its called despair for being one goal down in one of the most important match of their freakin' life?

well, maybe i should just take it the good way, i mean, many times before have been amazing teams like Italy or Germany considered divers, hmm. Maybe we are just starting to be feared by some.

French supporters were booing the Portugese team were they not? Surely they don't read British tabloids? TBH the Dutch were far worse divers than Portugal but there must be something to it.

They were booing Cristiano Ronaldo.. and that is something understandable to be honest, because along the fact he is a professional diver he also isnt a really honest person(Rooney's accident) + he always fuckin shows off. But except for him i don't think the portuguese players are especially anti fair-play..

ronaldo already pisses me off when he walks on. i told bunny already...i would give him a red card for just getting on the pitch.

not only a professional diver and moaner.
also before he scores the last thing he does is to check where the best camera is, to show off, to get a pic for a poster. little boy wants to be a superstar, but is a pussy

actually the boos were mostly perpetrated by lots of english fans that already had the ticket to the game expecting England to be in the semi final, and yes, they were only directed towards Cristiano Ronaldo.

DavidM, im not defending the diving, I hate it when they do that, it only hurts us and tbh he havent got a single free kick out of it in this world cup, the refs did a pretty good job, just i hate to see my country's team being labelled for it, just because some people are sore losers, tbh. Everyone does it, this is just silly.

OH NOES! Rooney and Gerrard diving /o\ Robben? how could it be? Even Lehmann is there :X

I'm not a sore loser, the dutch deserved to loose, they haven't showed alot of good stuff this WC.. and I'm not bitter about it.. But COME ON, team portugal isn't showing ANY sportmanship at all..

every match, ok, like 2 or 3 times, hardly getting something for it anyway. look at argentina, france, and some more teams like that, and see if they dont dive as much as us most games.

we were really bad against France, i agree, but that's caused by the pressure of losing a semi final, really. players are humans, they do stupid things under stress.

I love the rivaldo one and of course the last one of german league. GG the coach gives a clout and fall down himself - but ok, he was fired for that, so...
