At the risk of being shot for treason...

Whatever you think about disallowed goals and dodgy penalty spots, Rui Costa's goal was pure class.

Seeing Portugal's goalkeeper Ricardo step forward for the final penalty was pretty damn stylish too.

I was listening to the end of the match on the radio (first time ever) so I missed the visual details, but it sounds like it was all a good dramatic spectacle.

That it was. I'm not someone who usually follows England games (I don't usually pay much attention to football in general...) but that was a pretty good one to watch. Or listen to. :)

Who cares, it's football!

Yeah it must have been hard for James to get beaten by the opposition's goalie! Bah!

It was, but he should never have been allowed to shoot - Phil Neville's attempt to tackle him was hopeless...
