No he did not just pick up the ball, he backed away as well. Watch the replay again. a) It was not his ball to pick and b) stand your ground rather than running away to waste time.

Portugal have 10 minutes to hold out for a tie against England. Should they make it, Costinha and Deco will be suspended and Cristiano Ronaldo may be injured. Sven-Goran Eriksson may be quietly smiling at this.

Re: World Cup - Portugal vs Netherlands (round of 16)

Re: World Cup - Portugal vs Netherlands (round of 16)

Re: World Cup - Portugal vs Netherlands (round of 16)
Exactly. England must be praying Portugal hold out. Three main players potentially out. Can England get any luckier with their draw and now rivals?
