Are a heavy play today. I believe Spain is a young team that is a tournament away from really competing. Morocco has been very good this tournament and can definitely pull off the upset. The Swiss team is very organized and solid defensively. They can win the game against a Portugal team that is being held down by Ronaldo. Also this might be the last game Ronaldo plays in a Portugal shirt. He’s been a great player, but his time as an elite player is done.

Good points about the underdogs. This will be like a home game for Morocco with all of the support they'll be getting as the last Arab team left. Switzerland has seen a lot of Portugal recently and know them well. Gonna be really fun watching these sides square off. Doubt we'll see any blowouts today.

Portugal, without left back Nuno Mendez, will have their hands full dealing with Shaqiri on the flank.

Yep. This is basically a Morocco home game today too.
what LD said re USMNT not tracking runners into the 18
Ian Darke is such a treasure to listen to; no one knows and has such knowledge of European football on the tip of his tongue and delivers it so succinctly, sometimes poetically
Portugal v Spain would also be interesting....
How so? Are you referring to that exchange with the Japanese player while he was being substituted off the field?

I hope you get to see Lisbon - it’s beautifully decorated for Christmas.

Ignoring another Portuguese speaking entrant?

I was rooting for Spain a bit, but great job by Morocco.
wow

street vendor....
Ha! You say tomahto, I say tomato. (:
Great images of camaraderie of the two keepers, arms about shoulders, before kicks from the mark began
ABSOLUTELY !!!! My Asturias paisano fucked this cup up royally.
Welp, see ya in four... Actually two for the Euros
I wish it had gone to the full five PK attempts because the keeper was hot, and Spain looked like they were trying to kick the ball into a mailbox.
They could have gone 0 for 5...
Bad nught for tiki-taka
CR7 not starting

Just got word from my cuz in Spain that Luis Enrique will leave his post as the teams coach. Marcelino is most likely next in line.
Ronaldo really pissed Santos off with his post-game comments against South Korea.

Would like to see Switzerland send Ronaldo packing. I used to be a fan of Ronaldo, but he seems to be a major dick.
