Brazil limped their way to the trophy. The players' body language all looked like they'd rather be out at samba lessons. Portugal lacked the killer instinct, and Dudu saved your asses.
As a long-time follower of the Portugal men's team, I can say with authority that possession means absolute shit all if you don't score with it.
And that phantom goal never cleared the frame anyway. It's gotta be the whole of the ball crossing the whole of the line. You can also tell because the ball takes a slight deflection outward, not inward, of the goal when it first hit the post. You see more of the ball clear the angle of the post after it first hits the post.
