The video below it on the BBC website is of Ronaldo snatching a reporters mike and hurling it into an adjacent river.

Both videos just about sum the both of them up right now!


That video of Ronaldo gave me more than a little chuckle.... great entertainment

Just a shame it isn't a one off match, has been an equivalent shock in domestic football?

Their name hasnt been Total Network Solutions for years. Its "The New Saints"......

Ironically considering it was English players who knocked out Belgium, TNS are a team actually located in Shropshire England......

Even their own league is won by English teams!

Not necessarily, the original club was known as Total Network Solutions of Llansantffraid, who merged with Oswestry Town as the English football club (who played in the Welsh Pyramid system) were suffering from financial difficulties.

The official club name The New Saints of Oswestry Town & Llansantffraid Football Club, technically a Welsh football club who just happen to play in the English border town of Oswestry for geographical purposes. If you travel down the A483, you switch borders more than once.

They happen to play in England for "geographical purposes" :lol: What does that even mean!!!

I checked their squad on Wikipedia and the majority is English players......

English players, playing their home football in England..... representing Wales on a European level.
