Ramos bags hat-trick as Portugal crush Swiss 6-1 to reach quarterfinals

I’ve been saying this for a long time: Portugal plays better without Ronaldo(!); together with Brazil, they’re the two most talented teams in the world right now; Spain: a huge disappointment. England-Portugal in the semifinals would be amazing(!)

As evidenced by the article and many comments after the Morocco win and only one comment before mine here, people like underdogs and dark horses.

Portugal is brimming with footballing talent. Clubs like Porto, Sporting Lisbon, Benfica, Braga and their feeder football banks keep supplying quality footballers to the national side and to major football teams across Europe. Viva Portugal.

My money is on England, for the win...!
