Am i the only one who thinks palinha should be off? That was a shocking tackle
Day 15: Netherlands vs Czech Republic | Belgium vs Portugal (Ro16 3&4)

- Start date
I know he contributed to Portugal's first goal against Germany but Bernardo Silva has been generally underwhelming this tournament.
He’s 36....
He’s there to score goals, nothing else. If he’s not scoring, well then he really isn’t doing anything; been like this for a while.
Love him, but i'd be pulling my hair out if he plays like that for us.
A take hotter than surface of the sun.
without peps special sauce he looks fairly average. wouldn’t be surprised if pep sells him this summer
Silva and Jota have been awful.
Felix and Bruno, surely?
Felix and Bruno, surely?
Does anyone else find Belgium ballachingly boring.
Hey? No way for me. Yellow right.
Where's Graham Poll when you need him.
Who does he think he is? Some kind of firestarter?
Him at Juventus was still pretty good. But then he has better teammates there, taking away the focus from him.
Tbf Ronaldo has struggled to score from fks of late.Ian Wright making fun of Ronaldo's free kick ratio
I dunno what it means, bro.
Silva is really looking like a CM playing as a right winger. Scared to go down the line, always cutting back, playing it safe.
Makes me wonder how he compares to someone like Messi?
he’s the only one who tells the truth and doesn’t follow the guide book.Ian Wright making fun of Ronaldo's free kick ratio
Ronaldo lives off a few special FKs but he’s no specialist
What is also shocking is that he didn't get a yellow for pulling lukaku shirt earlier and we didn't even get a freekick
And one for the shirt pulling on Lukaku makes it a sending off imo.
He did it for us, but hasn't taken a great freekick for ages. Last one I remember was v. Spain.
We aren't play bad, Belgium just scored in its shot on target while we didn't.
Bernardo is slowing down our attacks, we need to replace him. Given that we had many chances to shoot near the area I would put Bruno fernandes and if we don't score quickly André Silva too (it will be Rafa and Danilo though ).

No changes for Portugal. 
Many were hypnotised by barca and Spain teams.
October (?) away in Sweden.
Punkin' instigator.
Absolutely. He can just pop up and get a goal or two from very little. Portugal can't afford to take him off.
Bless.
I might not have watched that. I just remember that late goal against Spain.
I think getting the ball and the weight of the occasion kind of saved him there, but yes, some refs probably send him off there.
He must surely be awarded the Golden Wall before he leaves Juventus, for the highest number of wasted free kicks that hit the wall (feat. Gli Autogol)
KDB is done.
de Bruyne looks done

Palhinha masterclass.
KDB injured?
de Bruyne coming off.
Is that the result of that first half tackle.
