6 minutes was a bit generous for added time. I know it's a bit harsh, and that ref was card happy, but I'm glad Deco and Costinha aren't playing in the quarters, which is a bit of a boost for England.

You think 6 minutes was bit generous ? Are you kidding ? If you look back at the second half, you'll see that of the 45 minutes of actual playtime, the Portugese have been rolling on the ground, acting like little bitches, so only 6 minutes of extra time isn't even fair, we got robbed of somewhat 15 minutes of playtime.
On the other hand, i more or less expected this to happen, we have a very bad record against Portugal. It's not that they are better than us, because they really aren't, but they are smarter and more effective with the chances they get. That, plus a few incredible coaching mistakes from v. Basten ensured we never had a chance. Kuyt for v. Nistelrooy ? Gimme a friggin break. And why he waited until 8 minutes before the end to put in an extra attacker is also beyond me. For the rest there's not much logical to say about a match with 16 yellow and 4 red cards, a disgrace for football.
There's only one thing i'd like to add, i hope i meet Figo one day, so i can really give him a reason to hold a spunge to his head.
