Yep tru that's his biggest strenght

he does these runs while smiling, good lad

Yeah he might be a decent lad, tbh I don't know as I only know about him as a footballer.

Haven't even seen the goal or any game tonight, but thumbs upping this as I have saw that so many times from him - stealing team-mates' goals lol.

Leao ran like 50 meters past everybody, shot and hit the post. And of course Ronaldo takes the leftovers.

I bet he gets all the credit too LOL.

Less impressive than leao, but it's like how Mendes produced a magnificent cross last month for Ronaldo's winner against Scotland but Ronald takes all the credit, lol.

Noone will ever remember what Mendes and Leao did.

Leao unlucky af, could've been a super goal but penaldo stole it

yeah that was a super run

but tbf Crstiano's goal looked easier than it was, ball came with an immense speed to his left foot, needed good control not to miss that...

@Maradona37 @MontenegrinCuler

also Ronaldo gave a freekick to Bruno at the end of the first half

Bruno needs a break though, he brought his Manu-form to nt

 

[Maradona37]

Tbh mate Fernandes is normally poor for Portugal. He only performs against minnows and moderate at best teams in qualifying. Come the tournaments he's pretty average and that's being nice.

Fair play on them sharing free-kicks though. Fernandes did hit the bar with a beauty against Villa.

 

[MontenegrinCuler]

Can't believe that's not a foul on Lamine, second time this happens

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

lol another fantastic run from Leao but Bruno missed the tap-in

today is not Bruno's day

 

[MontenegrinCuler]

Morata so washed

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

trincao coming

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

Morata so washed

Joselu would be more useful

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

Porro so wasteful

Spain is sterile without Olmo. Nico would add dynamism too. They're good at controlling games, but so boring in final third unless Lamine.

Spain have never replaced the cutting edge that Villa and Torres (pre-decline) gave them,. Nico, Olmo and Yamal started showing signs they can do it and helped them win the Euros, so hopefully now they can maintain that. I agree that they look more predictable usually but I think it goes for most teams that lose fast, technical wingers. Also, Rodri is a miss in midfield despite the guys starting there still being very good. People overlook just how important a wonderful midfield controller of his prowess can affect the final third too.

3-1 its over
