Game of Cards

When the things get tough, the tough get going… but it didn’t need to be that way; what was Costinha thinking, handling the ball like that??? Definitely, t was not his day…
We won fair and square, with all merit, and 9 players – actually, there could be only one winner – Portugal – and two losers – Holland and Fair Play…

The Dutch have probably the nicest supporters – they have great fair play, sense of humour, know how to enjoy themselves and sure make a colourful crowd.
Shame that the Dutch team doesn’t share the same qualities; instead, they acted like yobs, trying to get by force what they couldn’t do with skill.

It’s perfectly clear that the Dutch players didn’t even consider the remote chance they could loose, to the Portuguese geezers – we may be poor, we may be insignificant, but we play fair and we give the ball back to the other team, after interruption to assist a player…
If we don’t, Deco gets sent out…

I think Josef Blatter, surprise, said it all, after the match – in his words, “The referee should have seen a yellow card for his unfortunate exhibition”… if you ask me, there were more than enough cards already (and ever); but that one to the referee should count - but make it red – and one more to FIFA- after all, who appointed the referee???

I don’t even want to think that it was in their minds to hurt C. Ronaldo intentionally; but there’s really no justification for such brutal act!!!
I don’t even want to waste more space in the blog dedicating another line to the orange menace…
