They have nice weather, beaches, and an economy. No one feels sorry for them. And I doubt they feel sorry for themselves.

Why does Pepe look like a manlet even though he is 1.88m?
>>68829087
he's obviously kneeling
if you can't see that then it's probably time to invest in a guide dog
because he's always diving and crying like a little kid

It's almost 10 years ago since the Battle of Nuremberg, also known as Massacre of Nuremberg, or maybe the last 16 of the 2006 FIFA World Cup between Portugal and the Netherlands at the Frankenstadion in Nuremberg on 25 June 2006. Russian referee Valentin Ivanov issued a FIFA World Cup record four red cards and 16 yellow cards, setting a new record for cards shown at any FIFA-administered international tournament.
I wonder if anyone else here on /sp/ remembers this match or are you all too young for this? I didn't even realize there was a Wikipedia article until just now kek.

While we're at it, feel free to talk about other classic matches. 2006 was pretty GOAT in general. We saw the rise of both Messi and CR7, and legends like Fat Ronaldo, Zidane, Khan (although on the bench), Figo, Totti, Beckham (maybe not a legend), Ronaldinho, and plenty of others were still playing. Also, we actually had a decent team (Ljungberg and Larsson) and played fairly well up until we were forced to meet Germany.
The match ended 1–0 to Portugal, with Maniche scoring in the 23rd minute. Before the goal, Mark van Bommel had been booked and in the eighth minute, Dutch defender Khalid Boulahrouz was booked for a foul which injured Cristiano Ronaldo and would eventually force the substitution of Portugal's star winger before half time. Ronaldo left in tears, and proceeded to describe Boulahrouz's tackle as "clearly an intentional foul to get me injured." In the meantime, Maniche had been booked for a foul on Van Bommel after 19 minutes.
Shortly after the goal, Portugal's defensive midfielder Costinha slid into Dutch veteran Philip Cocu, receiving a yellow card. He was then the first to be sent off just before half time after being shown a second yellow card for a handball. After Petit had been cautioned in the 50th minute, Giovanni van Bronckhorst and Luís Figo both received yellow cards, with Figo's coming as a result of a headbutt. Portugal manager Luiz Felipe Scolari controversially gave his approval to this headbutt by stating after the match, "Jesus Christ may be able to turn the other cheek but Luís Figo isn't Jesus Christ." Scolari also escaped punishment.
Boulahrouz was sent off in the 63rd minute with a second caution after fouling Figo, which sparked a melee on the touch-line, involving Boulahrouz (who confronted Simão), André Ooijer and the Portuguese bench, necessitating the intervention of the fourth official Marco Rodríguez. Portugal's playmaker Deco roughly fouled Dutch defender John Heitinga and was booked; the Netherlands had not given the ball back after Portugal had cleared it into touch to allow a player to receive medical treatment, thus breaking one of football's unwritten rules. In the ensuing brawl, Wesley Sneijder pushed Petit to the ground and was also cautioned. The Netherlands' Rafael van der Vaart received a yellow card, apparently for dissent. After that, Portugal's goalkeeper Ricardo (presumably for time wasting) and left-back Nuno Valente (for a rough foul) were punished. Robin van Persie was lucky to escape without a yellow card after gesturing towards Ricardo after an apparent exchange of words in the Portuguese penalty area after he was subject to simulation by being accused of diving. Deco received his second caution and was dismissed in the 78th minute for delaying the restart after a free-kick was awarded. Philip Cocu escaped a caution for wrestling Deco to the ground in his attempt to retrieve the ball. In the 88th minute, Simão drew the ire of the Dutch goalie Edwin van der Sar after the Portuguese player's outstretched leg made contact with the custodian, but the referee decided against taking any disciplinary action. In injury time, Van Bronckhorst was sent off for a second yellow card for a foul on Tiago.
A scene was shown during the match in which Boulahrouz, Deco, and Van Bronckhorst were sitting together on the sidelines after being sent off, the latter two having a discussion, both being teammates at FC Barcelona. Commentator Gary Bloom referred to the scene as the "Bad boy's corner".

do you think at the age of 23 its to late to start playing football and expect to actually get anywhere?
Not necessarily. If you have natural talent you could still get in in a couple of years I suppose. Your career would be considerably shorter though and your success probably very limited, if you even get played that often.
Probably have an easier time getting into soccer tbqh
yes

Europe has a islamophobic problem.
Poland, Spain, Italy and Ireland all go through.
Albania, Turkey and Sweden get knocked out.
It's fucking 2016 ffs

>mfw ireland won because im [spoiler]exmuslim[/spoiler]
Why is everyone counting us out?
I get the memes and that we haven't won a game so far, but we completed the goal and qualified, now a diferentes euro starts. The way you guys act make y'all look like a bunch of casuals that know nothing about football.
Liking it or not we have the best player in the tournament, if he get his shit straight and the coach plays the best team I.e. Renato playing in the starting 11 we're a serious contender.
Yeah Croatia has a good team but só we do, we're on the same level, more or less. Then only Belgium or Poland, if we want to be nice, can beat us. But we can also beat them. None of the others can, not on the knockout stage.
You can continue making fun of us but I think you're in for a treat, we will go far and we will be the ones laughing in the end.
If you want to discuss football count me in, if you're into a memefest then sorry I have no time to waste with retards.
Anyways just my 2 cents. Stay classy.
>>68825054
I believe we had the lead 3 times. also you failed to win against Iceland and Austria. Good luck staying overconfident my friend.
Compared to Croatia we have a shit team filled with literally whos that are either yet to prove themselves or proven to be mediocre at best.
Either we Icelan'd them with a goat defence for a cheeky win or we're out
>>68825054

Friendly reminder that Italy fixed their game vs Ireland.
Enjoy your "rigged" sport, faggots.
