I am the only one allowed to watch the match

Ronaldo scores a first half free kick
Plenty of chances apparently

Craziness in the second half.... The Swiss want a pen at one end and it is not given and then Portugal go down the other end and get a penalty awarded!!
VAR has the ref take a look...the ref gives the Swiss a penalty so the Portugal penalty was moot!


1-1


I don't think it was a pen and the Portugal one was

GOAL AGAIN
RONALDO AGAIN

ANOTHER GREAT FINISH!!


That's why I like him better than Messi!
I know there is the United element but he gets it done everywhere!!!

He won the title in England
He won the title in Spain
He won the title in Italy
He won the European Champsionship!


Messi...stays comfy with Barcelona and does NOTHING internationally

Thanks for keeping us going during the ban today, UWS. Perhaps we can get a reprieve for tomorrow's match?
