Portuguese players should sport a moustache during the World Cup.

Portuguese players should sport a moustache during the World Cup.

The Portuguese team is not looking very Portuguese for some. That is the opinion of some Coimbra footy fans who decided to create the campaign “We want Portugal sporting a moustache in South Africa” (Queremos a Selecção com bigode na África do Sul). I personally think that would be total awesomeness.
The campaign’s creator, Ivo Lapa, [...]

6 more qualify: 2010 World Cup in South Africa is complete.

6 more qualify: 2010 World Cup in South Africa is complete.

No more. Done. Finito. Acabou. The fight for the 32 golden spots to play the most exciting football (and sports) tournament on the planet has ended. Some big ones almost did not manage. And some return after 24 years.
Today was the day for the last 6 squads to qualify. The brave (or lucky?) one were: [...]

World Cup Qualifiers: Portugal still alive. Argentina qualifies.

World Cup Qualifiers: Portugal still alive. Argentina qualifies.

Argentina is playing in South Africa. Maradona can breathe. The hermanos beat Uruguay 1 – 0 with a goal on the 84th minute by Bolatti. This ends Argentina’s war to qualify, as they take the 4th and last spot for a South American country. Uruguay will now go to play-offs (against Honduras or El Salvador), [...]

Even though Brazil started taking one in, sometimes getting hit means weaking up. And that was exactly what happened today in Bezerrão. Luis Fabiano, [...]

Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka together: the two were blessed by the good looks and the ability with the football (C-Ron was ‘blessed’ with cockyness as well – Kaka was not). What a nice photo!

Euro 2008 Results – Jun 19th: sour goodbye to Scolari.

And so it ends the Big Phil reign with the Portuguese. Not the ideal “tchau” as a weak Portugal was defeated by a booming Germany. Well deserved for the Germans, and a lot of frustration for the Lusos. Maybe that will bring C. Ronaldo’s cockiness a little bit down, maybe not. But the fact is, [...]

EURO 2008 Results – Jun 11th.

Today’s shorties: Portugal keeps destroying. Turkey sucks at playing in the rain, luckily the 2nd half had a drier pitch.
Czech Republic 1 – 3 Portugal – Deco scored first, C. Ronaldo scored his first, gave a present to Quaresma. The Czechs put one in with Sionko.
Switzerland 1 – 2 Turkey – Yakin shook the net [...]
