Spain v Portugal - Match Thread

[Bert]

So after the two disappointments from the first two games of the day, this will hopefully take centre stage and provide us with a decent watch. 

 

Really want Portugal to win due to the LCFC connections but even with Spain's recent turmoil, they're still a class act! 

 

Come on football, give us what we want! 

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Portugal win

[Jimothy]

Neither City player starts for Portugal. C'mon Spain!

[foxfanazer]

Gonna go for 3-1 Spain in this one. Praying for a better game. My missus won’t let me get away with watching all of the games if they’re as boring as the last two

[SheppyFox]

Cheering on Spain now neither Leicester player is starting, we spend a lot of time in Spain, my name is basically El Shepo. 

[Fox92]

Be interesting to see how Spain get on.

 

[leicsmac]

Ramos and Ronaldo to take each other out within the first ten, please.

 

Failing that, at least a decent game.

[MC Prussian]

Hello, Portugal.

Hello, Spain.

 

Please score more than one goal, no goalless draw, no bloody sitting through your match for something to happen in the 88th minute.

Ok?

Thank you!

 

P.S.: Dear footballing gods, since I don't particularly like the Spanish national football team and appreciate a bit of quiet late at night, a draw would suit me nicely. Wouldn't be able to stand my Portuguese neighbors to celebrate deep into Saturday morning.

Thank you!

[Sir Shep]

What is this bollox poetry on the beeb, rubbish! Anyway news flash, Portugal are playing 11 men, not one. 

[Suzie the Fox]

Would like Portugal to win, but money is on Spain 2-1.

 

Hope either of our guys comes on for some mins or better still scores.

[Suzie the Fox]

I like Ronaldo's earings.

Bertram doing bits with his pre match analysis...

 

Anyway, 1-0 Portugal is my prediction, Ronaldo with a 90th minute penalty.

Is that earrings or earnings, @Suzie the Fox?

Taking up your mantle of chatting shit. Slight difference I know what I'm talking about. 

[Jaspa]

How is Danny Murphy earning money being a pundit? he takes the energy out of almost every conversation in seconds, only time he does anything is when he drops a controversial soundbyte like when he said Spain still had a chance to win it after getting demolished by the Dutch last time around

Difference is you don't try and pass off journalist and pundits opinions as your own.

Silva is on the bench, Is our new right back ? I've forgotten his name

What on earth is your problem? Make the pre-match thread yourself if the OP bothers you that much
