I can't believe it.

Pfeh, having 8 out of 11 players on defense at practically all times doesn't seem fair to me!

That's what I was thinking - how could Portugal break through Greece's defense if they had all their players back!? I know it wasn't Portugal's best game, but the way Greece played (and always play) was/is just so - irriating.
To quote Scolari:
"They won defensively. They won because they knew how to play in that way."

...flashy but pointless footwork a la Christian Ronaldo is of less importance than good organization and teamwork.

I would hardly call Ronaldo's footwork "pointless." Ronaldo didn't make the national team just on his footwork, but on his overall ability. If you've watched Ronaldo in as many games as I have, you would know that that he's one of the best players in Portugal.

Best team in the tournament-definitely not, luckiest team in the history of football- most definitely. I hope they enjoy their party, they'll never be able to pull a stunt like that again.

I couldn't agree more.
