Should we expect more cards? It's cynical :-) None of the 3 yellow was from violent contact.

On soccernet Gamecast: "The Ivory Coast were clearly the better side in possession in that first half but they didn't create much up front. Portugal looked poor, unless Ronaldo got on the ball. Expect better in the second half." but the match stats had Portugal with most possession by 10%... maybe they meant CIV had better "quality possession"?

Portugal were doing a lot of square passing in the back with not much ambition. The ESPN crew deplored their negativity, suggesting they migh be up for an 0-0. In the 2nd half more is going on... CIV just had their first good chance, pass into Toure and a decent shot but not with any difficulty stopped. It's 55' and Danny goes off and now Simao is on. So PT have more firepower at least in principle. -- ciao, Bruce drift wave turbulence: http://www.rzg.mpg.de/~bds/ |
