Scotland v Portugal

[MCerieiro]

Hi there guys,

I have to say that that it was the most powerful and emotional Portuguese anthem i´ve ever seen, and just for that i´m very proud of our team.

And it´s wonderfull to see the hapiness of playing rugby!

cheers,

the thing ive noticed so far is just how proud an emotional some of the weaker nations are during the anthems (Portugal and Namibia)

ive seen allot of criticism about these teams being in the tournament (mostly from england fans it must be said) but it actually pleases me to see the amature players getting their chance to play infront of millions for their country (and in most cases have 20,000 French fans cheering you on)

for instance, the lap of honour Namibia did last night is something that those players will NEVER forget!

I really hope Portugal (and Namibia) get a win during the tournament.

Thanks mate, well you know how most of the English supporters are...to be honest i enjoyed most tu see the USA playing rather then the English team, but that´s just me.

For me Portugal, Namibia, Romania, Japan...gave a wonderfull enviroment to the world cup, and i´ve seen worst games between BIG teams than for an examle the match between Scotland and Portugal...good game, good rugby...so why should they not be present?

That´s what Rugby is all about IMHO

Cheers,
Marco
