He told me he went out with friends to watch the match. I'm pretty sure he's gonna be wasted by the time he's back... lol

It was Ibricic that hit the post, Ibisevic prob would have nailed it. lol.

Bosnia still has a chance on the return match, even though they'll be without their captain Spahic.

By the way, the Greece - Ukraine match was horribly boring. They should both be eliminated for playing footy that can put people into a coma.

Okay well... here's my thought on the match... And I'll be purely objective and honest.

First Half:

Portugal deserved a goal because for the first 30 minutes they were the best team. Our players were scared, as all Yugoslavian teams/NTs are when it's a big match.

When they scored the first goal, we opened up because we had to and we played better for the last 15 minutes. We hit the bar, but we still didn't deserve a goal.

In the first half, the ref was alright, but he let off Simao and Carvalho without warnings for no reason.

2nd half:

First 20 minutes, Portugal was better, we had a few little chances here and there, but they dominated us. Pepe was playing as a DM and he closed down Misimovic very well...

In the 75th-80th minute when Pjanic came in for Muratovic(who is really too old to play 80 minutes) and Muslimovic came in to change Misimovic, Pepe was too tired to play a tall striker. We played with 3 strikers, we had the guts and I'm proud of that. We dominated Portugal totally in the last 10 minutes... Pjanic was great, Muslimovic too and we hit 2 POSTS IN 3 SECONDS.

My thoughts on the English piece of absolute fucking shit of a referee? He's a fucking idiot. English refs are an absolute disgrace to football, on the island and off it. Not ONE tea-loving-crooked-teeth-rugby-loving piece of Anglo-saxon shit is a good ref. NOT ONE. HOW IS THAT A HAND ON IBISEVIC!? WHY DO YOU GIVE SPAHIC A YELLOW CARD WHEN ON THE OTHER END FUCKING PEPE DOES THE SAME FUCKING THING! HOW CAN YOU IN YOUR RIGHT MOTHERFUCKING MIND GIVE MURATOVIC A YELLOW CARD WHEN CARVALHO DOES THE EXACT SAME THING ON RAHIMIC 10 MINUTES EARLIER!?

The ref is not to blame, this has nothing to do with the game, but every time I watch an English ref, he ruins the game. fuck him.

Also, we deserved a draw. Portugal are no better than us.

1-0 isn't that a poor result. They still have to come to Bosnia.


@ Flip: I know it wasn't Ibisevic that took the rebound, but the shot actually touched Ibisevic who was standing there, causing to divert a bit and hit the post. Silly bad luck.


From what I saw from the match, Bosnia should've shown guts earlier. My buddy said last 15 mins of the first half they were good. I saw the 2nd half myself and except for the last 10 mins, Bosnia were SO sloppy in their game, it was dreadful. Portugal neglected to finish it. Last 10 mins, Bosnia were good. They piled on the pressure and came very close to a (deserved?) goal a few times but it didn't go in (duh).


Ref was poor, i do agree. Inconsistent refereering.

Our pundits for the game yesterday blasted Trappatoni for not going out and playing brilliant attacking football. Who do they think we are? fucking Spain? We dont have the players to play like that. He is getting the best out of what we have imo. We havent got many top players. Keane, Dunne,Duff, O Shea, Doyle and Dunne are all good players but outside of that we have very little. Some people really are deluded.

San Marino should play attacking football. I was looking at some formations some teams used and years ago Japan used the 1-6-3. San Marino should use that!

Back in the day most teams played a variaiton of 2-3-5
I know, but the way he said it, it was in the past few years...

I know that a lot of teams played 2-3-5, especially the Austrians, Hungarians, Czechs and Slovaks...

The 4-2-4, 3-3-4... but I've never heard of 1-6-3.
