Well, it was a great and fun game to watch, despite Portugal's best efforts to be dour and slow throughout most of the game. Spain was good in general and Portugal's third goal was good. I can also commend a couple of good Portuguese counters in the first half. Still, balls to the wall excitement, and the match made me believe Portugal can keep on being negative, and getting by by the skin of their teeth. Like in 2016. It's like Portugal might become a new Italy, only with worse defending.

Saw only the first ten minutes but how was that a penalty?

It was clearly a penalty. From one angle it looked dubious, from another it was obvious.

Can the Portugese dive like the Italians?

Almost. Too many missed opportunities. And Messi should have been penalized. Nice goal in the 2nd though.

Watched Denmark beat Peru last night. I don't know who the guy doing the call on FSN was last night but he was more entertaining than the match. Next up for us here in the US Mexico vs Germany. Go Mexico.

I have nothing against ze Germans, but it would be tremendous if Mexico hung on for the full 3 points.
