Bomba Inteligente vs New York Times, depois do salto
(imagem: fifaworldcup.com)
NYT (Rob Mackey): Kick-off!
Bomba Inteligente (Carla Hilário): 1": a relva parece que prende. A relva ainda ganha isto.
1st minute Figo gets in the box on the right after 20 odd seconds, cuts it back for Deco and he does less well than his namesake, the lead singer of The Committments, might’ve.
3": Quem?
3 Portugal are in their port-colored strip, Iran in all Shiite, I mean white.
5": olha o disparate daquela bola completamente ao lado...
6 A long series of passes by Portugal get the ball up to Pauleta with his back to goal in the middle, but he’s tackled right away. Nothing there. But Portugal have all of the ball right now.
6": vou comer um geladinho e já venho.
8 Figo brings the ball up the left, and gets it to Nuno Valente who wins a corner on the left. Nothing comes out it, unless you count a long off-target shot.
17": quem é que fez o passe longo para o guarda-redes português?
18 Long, long ball from Nosrati picks out Portugal’s keeper Ricardo rather than any Iranian.
18": booooooooooring...
20 Yelllow card to Nekounam for taking down Figo near the middle of the pitch.
19": é muito bem feita!
24 Mahdavikia swings it in and its just punched away by Ricardo. Several white shirts were close to heading it in. Hashemian was nearly there.
24": zzzZZzzzZZzzz...
30 There’s Ronaldo complaining to the official on the side after he runs off the edge right in front of him. He’s on a yellow from the last match, better watch that temper.
30": ia sendo golo do Irão! Ah, mas estava fora de jogo. A propósito...
31 A shot off the bar from Teymourian, but he was off-side.
34": vai, Cristiano!
35 Ronaldo!! A great shot just into the side netting on the right.
35": o Irão está muito fechado, diz o comentador. A culpa é daquele Presidente.
37 Figo is off briefly after taking some studs in the face. I’m not sure from whom, but then Figo might not know either.
42": ah, o árbitro é francês... (ler como se fizesse alguma diferença)
45 Pauleta is booked - Yellow card. What for? Looked like nothing to me.
Minuto de compensação: "isto não é falta nem em França", diz o comentador da SIC.
45+3 That’s it for the half - and the Portuguese fans are not pleased. Boos and whistles as they walk off for a little break from not scoring.
Intervalo: buuuuuuuuuuu das bancadas.
46": Bom-ba-ball! Bom-ba-ball! Bom-ba-ball!
46 We’re off again.
49": se empatamos é uma vergonha. Vai!
51 Iran more threatening now. Not to their neighbors, mind you, but to Portugal’s secret World Cup hopes.
52": a dança de Ronaldo... mas que dança é essa?
54 Ronaldo’s back heel flip does not please Shep Messing on ESPN. I’m not picking any fights, but the idea that a flashy play that does not lead to a goal is just showing off is not really fair. This is part of how Portugal’s attackers work. When it does lead to a goal critics will change their tune.
57": os próprios iranianos boicotam os seus próprios ataques, o que para nós é óptimo. Um descanso.
57 Mehdi Mahdavikia pops up from nowhere, like his namesake, and gets in front of goal. Then he decides to pass it to the Portuguese keeper instead of shoot for some strange reason.
58": quem?
59 Deco is down. The ref couldn’t care less and play goes on.
Ainda 60": Costinha podia ter sido mais discreto.
63 GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLL LLLAAAZZZZZZZOOOOOOO!!!!!!
62": grande goooooooooooooooooooooooolooooooo!
75 It’s mostly Portugal now with the ball.
77": ia sendo uma vergonha de todo o tamanho.
78 Iran break and Zandi puts in a great cross for Hashemian who powers a header at goal, but straight at the keeper Ricardo. That was their best chance of the day.
Ainda 77": penálti a favor de Portugal! O comentador diz que o futebol tem destas coisas... duh!
79 GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAZZZZO!!!
80": vale a pena ver o resto do jogo ou vou comer outro geladinho?
85 Ronaldo with a beautiful piece of skill.
Ainda 88": cinco minutos de compensação não é uma barbaridade?
90+4 The ref. must be enjoying this more than the Iranians, because he won’t blow the whistle.
Bombaball rests: parabéns, Portugal!
That was much better from Portugal.
