Ridiculous, absolutely no right to save that
The Sunday Turbine did a great article on this back in the day, quoting all kinds of science boffins. These boffins never played the game, what do they know.
Newtons 4th law of motion
Acceleration = force/mass x wetness of grass
There was a big debate on tfk about this 15 years ago
Hopefully most saw sense and concluded the wet surface slows down the ball.
Itâs known as a âgreasy top surfaceâ

France although defensively solid have been poor so far⌠I think Portugal will beat them 1 or 2-0
I also reckon the Portugooses will do them

Portugal would have a great chance if they dropped Ronaldo and kept him as an impact sub. Iâd doubt Roberto Martinez will do that though.
Ronaldo crying was a pivotal moment in the euros⌠he felt he had let the portugese nation down and in showing that emotion has created a team spirit in this Portuguese squad that wonât accept defeat.
Not a hope portugal beat france. Not a hope.
Portugal loves Ronaldo and Ronaldo loves Portugal
Theyâll fuck France right up
