But the threat is not gone. As you know, in recent months, Footballia has been in danger of disappearing. We’ve improved our protection so you can keep enjoying football history, but as a consequence, our expenses have increased.

What a battle of game, thanks for making easy and possible to watch it footballia!!
en 2021 reviviendo esta batalla :), gracias por existir footballia
Netherlands was so disgusting
Excelente, mas mesmo o árbitro aplicando cartões "a rodo"... a violência permeou todo o segundo tempo. A Holanda teve um penal claríssimo não marcado em Robben - mesmo após ter sido apitado um off-side ou algo do tipo. Portugal teve muita sorte e Van Basten fez o que pôde para reverter o placar mexendo na equipe. O certo seria a prorrogação - extra time.
Desonest Netherland.
I love your website, Footballia! Thanks for all your efforts and great work :)
Much appreciated! :-) We try our best!
no video
Yes, of course there's a video. That's what this website is about.
The battle of Nuernberg: when dirtiness becomes art.
Why does it keep on loading?
We're afraid that is unrelated to Footballia. We can only suggest you try at a later time or on a different browser. Sorry for the inconvenience!
How do I switch to English commentary on this site?
These matches have all been recorded from tv stations and, therefore, they have the language of the channel they were recorded from. Whenever possible, we try to have the commentary in the language of one of the participating teams. However, we don't consider that should be a problem for fans from any other countries since football can be followed and understood without understanding the commentary :-)
Un match saignant dont Boulahrouz, le boucher, aurait dû être exclu rapidement. Son agression sur Ronaldo est inqualifiable; Le plan anti-Ronaldo est évident; 2 fautes graves sur lui dans les 10 premières minutes. Les Portugais ne se sont pas laissés faire. Tant mieux. Merci pour ce moment ;)
Clairement, tout ça c'est la faute de l'arbitre, il aurait du mettre le rouge pour les calmer
Gran zurda la de Arjen Robben!!!
Absolutely spot on nelle.
I understand, but if you already have the video in English commentary I would really appreciate having access to it! Portugal and Argentina may have a wider demographic than other international teams, due to Messi and Ronaldo's wide fanbases, with more English viewers interested in understanding the commentary. This match in particular is so crazy that I personally would love to understand the commentary about the amount of fouls, etc.
Do you have this match with English commentary?
This is a match between a team from a Portuguese-speaking country and another from a Dutch-speaking country. Whenever possible, we post matches in the language of one of the teams involved.
I was asking because earlier comments on this video reference a video with English/American commentary. So it seems it was uploaded with English commentary, then taken down for some reason. It stands to reason that a good amount of viewers on this site speak English, so English commentary would be preferable whenever possible.
Actually, we have users from all over who speak all kinds of languages, so we respect all the languages and we favour those of the participating teams because those will be the fans most interested in the match.
In any case, luckily football can be followed and enjoyed without understanding the commentary.
If you want users to subscribe and pay for upgraded features, including videos with multiple language options would be a nice incentive....plus answering inquiries in a more kindly manner.
We apologize if you felt we weren't being kind. We felt we'd explained our criterion clearly and politely. Unfortunately at the moment we don't have the means to include multilanguage.
Is that problem if there is no english commentary? Football is for all.not only english people. Anyway in this website much matches in english more than another languegs
I think all the (yellow) cards are given correctly... in this game there was no football :-)
Thanks for the upload.. But seriously I dont know why Deco was given second yellow card? He didn't hold the ball for 10secs and the time was still 74mins, not that he was really wasting time. It shows the referee was under pressure and he could not control the game.
Referee did nothing wrong really. Probably should have given a red to the Ronaldo foul, but aside from that nothing really questionable. Commentators are morons.
the american commentary is simply stupid :D (the two guys are working hard to uphold the stereotype) but I´m still happy to be able to rewatch this game ..thank you for uploading it.
Some of the worst commentary ever. ESPN from '06... just pathetic and clueless
This is Portuguese television SIC. Commentaries of Nuno Luz and Humberto Coelho.
The original comment referred to the old copy we used to have, not the current one.
@Footballia The old copy with english comments is not available anymore ? It would be great if we could choose multiple language.
Multiple languages would mean multiple videos for every match, and that would send our storage costs through the roof.
A batalha de Nuremberg! Obrigado pelo envio!
Thank you for having this match in English commentary. Can you upload Australia vs Croatia in English as well?
