So fucking undeserved. Lucked out in every match except against Wales. Played some of the most mindnumbingly boring football as well, their match against Croatia was probably the single most boring match of the past 50 years.

excuses, excuses
at the end of a football match, the one with the most goals wins, no matter what happens
CHAMPIONS WOO
They played surprisingly well in the finals, without Ronaldo. Both teams had good chances and could've taken it, to be honest.
Most underserved fucking win in the history of football. They went into that final with 1win and 6 draws fuck off

Actually, 4 wins and 3 draws.
At the end of the tournament, we are the only ones that didn't lose. And THAT is what matters.
Really fucking boring game, at least I might get something out of that win.
We got there. We won!
WOOO HOOOO!
Nobody believed in us but at the we were the ones who scored!
PORTUGAAAAAAAAAAAAAL! :excited:

Come on man, you can't sit there and with a straight face pretend Portugal got to the finals because they played well.

Too bad Éder didn't get the fame he deserved. Only caught a few glimpses of him on camera while the rest was Ronaldo, Ronaldo and Ronaldo.

We won because we play better than everyone else
That's how it works
There wasn't even any referee scandals lol nobody can take this away from us now

I don't watch football with clubs. But here people don't like Éder very much. Dunno why. But he did his job.
We win lol
And people said Éder couldn't play for shit, that he shouldn't have come etc etc
they were soo wrong :v:

Drawing games out to 0-0 draws and then getting a lucky goal in Extra Time/winning on pens isn't a good way to play football. Then there's the fact that every single Portugese player cheats and dives like it's going out of fucking fashion.
Not deserved at all. France or even Wales deserved the trophy a lot more.
At least the winning goal was a clean shot and not from that bs free kick.
The salt over at reddit and /sp/ is fucking delicious
Congratz Portugal
TSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUU

yeah i'm sure the foul on ronaldo in the first half was a dive
I'm sure Eder's long range goal was cheating
I'm sure our wonderful record being better at penalties than everybody else was just luck

Wew. I guess we played by the rules like everyone did. People on every single team cheat. And don't come with that shit about lucky goals.
We got there. We won. Football is plain and simple. You win by getting more score. I don't care if we played bad. We won. That's what matters.
One is more than zero btw.
Lol @ the people saying that Portugal didn't deserve the win. Why have the Euro if it's not for the teams to compete with a given set of rules and conditions and see who literally does the best?

Congrats on picking 2 examples. There's plenty of examples of Portugese players going down when nothing happens, and if we're going to pick examples in this match how about that french 'hands' ball shortly before the 1-0? It was a Portugese player that made hands, Portugal whines that the French did it and the Ref gave it to them.

It wasn't a foul. It was a heavy tackle but it wasn't a foul. He's getting old and he injures easier.
Eder's goal was good.
Congratulations on winning. The ultimate last laugh on Greece for 04 - You won the same way they did.
That was the dullest game I've watched in a looong time.
The calibre of football (with a few exceptions: Iceland, Wales) has been pretty dire for the whole tournament.
The only exciting bits came from the fans: Iceland's fans, Will Grigg's on Fire. The only interesting game for me was England's 2-1 victory over Wales and perhaps France v Germany.

Because Portugal didn't win solely because of their own performance. They passed through the group stage because of an own goal by Iceland, and if Iceland had drawn Austria Portugal wouldn't have gone through either, for example.

what the fuck
His knee and ankle bent in ways that aren't humanly possible lmao
I'm just happy the French didn't win
Like our coach said, fuck the criticism, only the best team will win and that was
PORTUGAL CARALHO

Doesn't changed that you guys faked you into a free kick when a ball hit a head, and then you got one despite being the ones that did the foul. None of them gave you a goal, but before that I didn't care whether France or Portugal won, but after that I certainly did.

Moving the discussion about Portugal aside for a second, definitely agreeing with this. There were so many incredibly boring games.

No, Greece beat Portugal, the home team, TWICE; in the opening and in the final match.
