haha, a german mate of mine was saying you similar record again italy as england have with germany at international tournaments
Something tells me you may be right, Ronaldo is just coming into form and I could see the Spanish getting frustrated. I've still got spain to win with betfair but it'll be close.
I know Spain play good touch football , but I do find them very boring , ok for the football purists , but at least when you watch Portugal they entertain - mainly through Ronaldo , but he has got magical feet .. Portugal v Italy final !

not at all, portugal were the better team IMO. Call me a philistine but Spain's tik-a-taka style football is getting a bit over the top, for fucks sake get a striker on!

hate penalties but was glad to get that game out of the way. Feel sorry for the portuguese, they shaded it over the course of the game. no excuses for ronaldo not stepping up to take an earlier penalty IMO.

The game was all about him last night, not Portugal, tried to grab the glory and headlines for himself and score the 'winner'.
if teams win the World Cup , a star is placed above the badge , same as clubs who win Champions League , so why nothing when they win the Euro Championships ?

Steve
The addition of a star or stars to the crest or badge is a voluntary act by the club or country, originated in Serie A when Juve won 10 titles and stuck one on their shirt.
Chelsea may have decided to have one but for example I don't think Villa have, don't think United have. Football shirts would end up looking even sillier with stars, badges, sponsors then Premier League shit depending on continued success.
Brazilian clubs appear to have lost the plot. Spurs might look to put one on every time they beat or get a draw with us.
