fully deserved.  Can't stand sideshow bob. 

If they can beat Belgium I think they can surpass Portugal but they themselves have also been tough to beat.   Bale vs his buddy Ronaldo. 

Who would have dreamt a Welsh team in the final??

The madness continues with that penalty shoot out last night.

If there was any hardproof evidence of rigging football matches that has to come pretty close.   :rofl

I'm going to have to watch it again just to make sure I wasn't dreaming.    Germany missing 3 penalties and still winning outrageous.

At defending for sure but you cant win games if you dont convert possession into goals which has been englands problem all tournament how to break down teams playing counter attack.

Im looking on the positive side rooney and joe hart shouldnt be in the next tourny and we have lots of promising young players that should mature before the next WC.

As Iceland were one of my picks I hope they go on and do well.

Fantastic result from the mega rich England team :salute

Proof that you can lose 48% to 52% and still stay in Europe.

One can play keepball but if no shots are taken it is hard to win.

bah les Bleus totally deserved it.   It was a penalty, it looked harsh at first but the replay clearly showed he was attempting to prevent the French player from getting a clean header and the ball hits his hand. 

The German incident was outside anyway.  The French looked more creative and Giroud wasted a couple of easy 1vs1 opportunities.  Could have easily been 4-0.

So the final, everyone has France as solid favourites but Portugal seem to have some kind of voodoo luck preventing them from getting Knocked out.  A hard one to predict for sure.

Portugal wins. Set up by a bad call (hand ball) on a French player - Portuguese player should have had the hand ball.

did mention the voodoo luck...

Congratulations to Portugal for winning their first major title! 

Even without their "star" player.
