Satire video on Ricardo Quaresma in Portugal 0-0 Sweden 'Ze Carlos'


Video 'Ze Carlos' satire on Portugal 0-0 Sweden


This is a funny comedy video in Portuguese about the disappointing performance of Portugal in Portugal 0-0 Sweden. The program's called "Ze Carlos" on SIC tv from Oct. 20, 2008. They poke fun at Ricardo Quaresma's cross and other things. It's pretty funny.

English translation:
The host shows three guests a video clip of Ricardo Quaresma's substitution in the game Portugal 0-0 Sweden.

"We have some images of the game Portugal 0-0 Sweden. There's a substituion. Hugo Almeida out, replaced by Ricardo Quaresma. There's Ricardo Quaresma walking into the soccer field. Here's a supporter holding a banner saying "Quaresma, Give me your jersey"

Then this will happen. Quaresma has the ball. Quaresma chooses to do this cross. Look where it ends up.

[Public starts whistling and booing] The public makes its feelings known. The supporter then holds a banner "Quaresma give me your jersey that I can do better than that.

It's evident at the moment there's a divorce between the Portuguese public and the Portugal national team. Scolari started the trend of hanging the Portuguese flags on the windows. I think Queiroz will start the trend of burning the flags on the windows.

It does have a nice effect. It's not just this incident, not just with Queiroz. I remember when Scolari defended Quaresma from his opponents [the 'punch' to Serbian player]. Pretty soon Queiroz will need to defend Quaresma from his own teammates when he won't give the ball to them."
