Copa America 2020

Losing to Germany in a WC Final and QF is much better than losing to Germany in a Euro 1st round KO and WC group stages. I'd say the latter is pretty embarrassing.

Atleast we won a torunament in which germany has also played, so the L turns to a W

Portugal 2004 >>>>> Portugal 2016

That 2004 team was legit.

2016 team was a scam. 3rd place in the group and the easiest road to a final ever

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

You mean Jermaine Jones and Michael Bradley

rassviiii also back

That was just the icing on the cake. Germany prepped Portugal for the mighty US to finish them off.

USA was stronger than people thought, portugal was really weak during that time and still we didnt lose against them

Nah dawg, can't slip this L so easily. You lot and CR7 are group stage/first round pastry for the Germans.

Yeah i agree, portugal 2004 was a strong team. We had lots of luck in 2016 but at the end of the day i was happy that we won a title which should have been happened in 2004.

Yeah tbf you should have won in 2004, but Greece won with the shithousery of the century. An even more cynical and clinical version of Atletico Madrid at their best.

I thought we are just joking, feels like you got from joking to serious

If I remember correctly we won 2 times against Portugal in that tournament. So, the result was pretty fair in the end, even though the football was Simeone like.

You're remembering correctly. The opening game of the tournament (at Dragao Stadium, the stadium of FC Porto) and the last game (at Luz Stadium, the stadium of my team SL Benfica).

We got more than four times as many shots as you, nothing was fair

If Higuian scores 1/4 easy chances he was given then it'd all be over. Similarly if Eder doesn't score the greatest goal he will ever score in his life in injury time, people wouldn't get to pretend CR7 won Portugal a trophy. Smallest of margins, and yet more proof (like with the whole UCL debates) that only if your teammates perform are you going to win anything.

Individual quality: Messi is 2014 World cup player of tournament, top dribbler, top chance creator.

He did the same in 2015 Copa, only to lost in PK shoot out which he was the only one to score. He missed next year though.

If Argentina can display good football in their pre Copa games liek vs Chile and Colombia, they can win the tittle.

All scored by header. Pure tactic.

Copa America could be hosted in the US with the Colombia confirmed to be ruled out and Argentina dealing with the COVID situation.
