First Match Catching My Eye



Portugal - Turkey
Stad de Genev

0:00 And we're off. The atmosphere is excellent. We have Adrian Healy and Andy Gray commenting. Ronaldo and Deco and Ricardo and Carvalho. How can Portugal have trouble with Turkey?

3:16 Bad pass from Ronaldooo. Have to stifle a wry smile. Anyway Portugal is attacking well early doors.

11:23 Turkey wins a corner. They were putting something together in counter attack.

I'm surprised at Turkey's speed. They are getting themselves sorted and showing some industry.

12:17 Portugal has a corner and a goal, BUT Pepe is offside. Replay shows he was onside. Awesome work on the set piece bodes well for the men in crimson. Portugal is now at the races after Turkey's foray into attack.

18:55 Turkey wins a free kick just outside Portugal's area. Nice try...corner for Turkey.

Oh, for crying out loud! ESPN2 just showed the result at the bottom of the screen. 2-0 to Portugal. Well, that deserves an angry email to their management. I should know by now they are famous for ruining matches like this.
