All Bradley had to do was get a touch on the ball and the game would have been over. Jones didn't give him a great pass but he didn't even try to get a touch on it when no one was around him. I think Beasley should have been more aggressive with Ronaldo that last play too.
We might have played better but we also just some lucky breaks. How does nani miss hit that kick wide open, he didn't get within 10 feet of the goal. Also, that shot that hit the goal posts was lucky as hell.
The was awful. When they made their final rally I know they will score. Thirty seconds...that's how close we were.
Beasley should have knocked the **** out of Ronaldo. Oh my god. We were 30 seconds away from a win, ****ing Bradley!!!!!
Stunning and heart breaking. Unfortunately a little reminiscent of the first match in reverse but at least it wasn't a loss.
Oh but you overlook Portugal's first goal? Shut the **** up for being ignorant and liking the Grizzlies, oh wait, those go hand in hand.
Don't worry guys. You'll get a point from Germany. 1982 and all that. Two German managers, worked together in the past. It fits! Ridiculous ending to the game though...
Now we have to pray Portugal wins or draws against Ghana! I'm not feeling confident about a goal differential battle against Ghana, but against Portugal... they're down 5 goals we should be fine!
They were disorganized in the last minute. They parked the bus well, and then near the end it felt like they were showing off and celebrating in their minds. Turnovers happen. But they had too many people overcommited in the Portugal's 3rd of the pitch. No reason to have that with 30 seconds left. And Klinsy was screeming for them to get back even before the turnover.
That was disappointing too, he just kind of watched. No pressure or anything. He should have went for a hard tackle, even if it gets him thrown out of the game and suspended for what would have then been a meaningless match...but this always happens. You have to go hard for every second, Portugal was fighting for their lives so you have to fight for yours too.
