Spain have managed to pull off a feat previously considered almost impossible, by producing a pennant with an even more boring design than England's, according to a lighthearted analysis. The observation comes ahead of a potential final meeting between the two teams, with the commentator suggesting it might be best to quietly drop the feature if that happens.
Portugal's Pennant Praised
In contrast, Portugal's pennant is described as rather nice, featuring one of the great recognisable crests. However, a couple of points were docked for lack of edge-cushioning tassels, with a warning that a sudden gust of wind at the coin toss could cause injury. The pennant in question is not the one Cristiano Ronaldo will be handing over to Rodri today, as no photo of that was taken.
