Kelliher with two lovely saves from decent Hungarian chances. Very good goal keeping reflexes

I know Varane has been a bit poor in the past for Madrid but he looks fine for France , could turn out to be a great signing if we get him on the cheap..

No team in particular.
Ireland just did the knee against Hungary in their game in Budapest just now and they were loud boos and very intimidating noises from the home fans.
They are in Hungary, not in Dublin though.
I believe that's why.

BTW Bulgaria looks very underwhelming, haven't had a single shot in more than 55 minutes, but they are playing against France so i guess that's why, France defense have been superb.

Bulgaria also only managed 2 shots all game against Russia, their football is in a terrible condition for a long time now.

That chance after 30 seconds sums up the difference between United's Bruno and Portugal's Bruno. United's Porugal would have given his teammate a bollocking for not passing to him. Portugal's Bruno can't do that because that teammate most often is Ronaldo.

If they had a proper CF then this would be a bloody good team. Ronaldo will always start ahead of Andre Silva though.

Better goal scorer but he doesn’t offer much as a focal point and is often too selfish IMO.
Depends on what your perception of a CF is then. To me, it's the team's primary goalscorer. Ronaldo obviously betters Silva in every conceivable way in that regard.

Finish by Bruno. Portugal look very sharp tonight, even with Ronaldo having an awful game

Dangerous side in the Euros

Started watching less than 10 mins ago..
Bruno set one up for Ronaldo, nearly had a great cross a couple of mins back and now scored..

It's always hilarious people talking crap about Ronaldo. You know your gonna eat pie real quick so it's silly.
What I don't understand is trashing Ronaldo but bigging up Cavani and Sergio Ramos :confused:

Ronaldo looking surprisingly fresh could be a big player at the Euros..
