Oh 100% agree. Sorry I just meant their current play.

And then they get let down by their keeper! Should make the second half very interesting.

Damn Ronaldo is amazing! Well that was more poor goal keeping, but still...

Yeah that was terrible.

It's fun to watch Ronaldo playing internationally- like a complete different player (except being exceptional..), almost modest.

 

[Apple fanboy]

Good half. More of the same please!

 

[bmac4]

Great half! Need another couple of goals.

 

[Apple fanboy]

Ronaldo vs Costa!

 

[bmac4]

Ronaldo vs Costa!

Who would have thought that?

 

[Apple fanboy]

Who would have thought that?

If they both get a hat trick, do they get half a match ball each?

Lol! Fight for it?

 

[bmac4]

What a goal!!!

 

[Apple fanboy]

What a goal!!!

Agreed.

 

[Scepticalscribe]

Excellent game, I must say.

Normally, I would be shouting for Portugal, but I cannot abide the narcissism of Ronaldo, brilliant player though he is.

 

[bmac4]

Agreed.

I think we should eat some nachos for that.

How good is Isco?

He's good. But I'll pass on the nachos. I'm a former fatty so I have to be a good boy. Just another cup of tea for me at full time.

Haha ok that sounds good. I just had lunch, so I am good too. Isco and Bale are my favorite players for Madrid.

I'd probably agree.

 

[bmac4]

I'd probably agree.

I think Isco is going to be the primary star of Real this next year under Lopetegui.

Good game so far. Hoping Spain come out on top in this one.

Sexy way of playing football.

 

[The-Real-Deal82]

Always nice to see how different countries play the beautiful game.

 

[bmac4]

I am exciting to see England. I think they have an amazing team.

 

[bmac4]

Wow just wow. Best player in the world!

 

[The-Real-Deal82]

As soon as I saw the concentration on Ronaldo’s face I knew that was going to be a goal. A masterpiece.

 

[Silencio]

I think I knew Ronaldo was scoring as soon as Pique committed the foul. Top that, Messi.

This is one of the best group stage matches I can ever recall watching, and Ronaldo's performance was just unreal. Portugal is going to feel much happier sharing the points. It'll be a miracle if Iran or Morocco get anything at all from their next two matches.
