with 0 shots on target? I fail to see how that's worthy of deserving it more than Spain, to use the vocab so popular here.
Portugal should be given credit for limiting spain and their ball possession stats but they spent so much effort in doing so that they forgot to play their game and threaten on their own.
in the end Spain did more in creating goal-scoring chances and eventually did enough to go thru, hence why they are in the final and not Portugal, which I have to say exceeded my expectations in this tournament.

a team is as strong as it's weakest link, swag - I am not disagreeing with you but it's not like spain, in some covert op, put Almeida there.
in the end of the day, if portugal didn't do enough to go thru, at least not more than spain, they didn't deserve to go thru, whether for the lack of a better striker or something else.
I was really surprised by Italy's performance last night. I thought they didn't have what it took to reach the finals, but I was wrong. Humble pie, eaten.
