Euro 2008

Holland has already booked their flights home. Germany will go to the final.

Nope. It was the correct call. There was an Italian defender behind the pitch. Ruud was onside.
 
To be correct I did not say they lose today, but they won't be in the final. But yeah I thought they lose today.

yeah they showed it a during the half time show here the replay they showed after the goal didn't show it's 3-0 now amazing game everything i thought it would be just the other way around Holland looks really really strong

Edit: Game over 3-0 Holland i can't remember ever seeing Italy lose this bad
 
I really don't know what to say :(
an embarassing performance, they really absolutely didn't know what to do and what was happening :(
worst opening was impossible and now we are forced to win both games
 
Great start for Holland. Van Der Sar played incredible (best performance by a keeper so far) and the Dutch midfield was fantastic. I had no doubt that we had the players to do well, but I didn't expect the team to look that good. Defense is still a little shaky though, Italy was getting through on the wings all night long.
 
It was a strong performance by Holland...

from what I have seen so far I think Portugal, Germany, Holland have looked the best...
 
I've had money riding on Holland losing to Portugal in the final...I have to admit, I'm very glad I put that bet on. The Dutch looked fantastic in every aspect, especially on the break. I didn't fancy Italy for this though, this is when age catches up with them.
 
Spain destroying Russia right now i wouldn't put to much into that result though Spain always seems to always choke once the group stages are over and Russia ain't really all that good.

Greece Sweden should be good

Please not Portugal in the Final.

If I want to watch a diving contest I can wait for a short while until the Olymipcs. ;)


Still, at last the tournament has come alive, the first few days were so dire.

Have to say I would never bet against the Germans in these tournaments.

As Gary Lineker once said, "Football is a game of 120 mins, after which Germany wins on Penalties".:D
 
Spain looked REAL good...solid in every aspect...they have the team to be Champs...now whether they will or not is yet to be seen but they are a notch above the other 3 (Germany, Portugal, Holland).

No they aren't, they are good but not above any of the other good teams. Russia missed so many golden chances in that game and could have easily got a result, Spain are weak in defence. A good team will punish them as always. Holland have looked the best so far (considering they were playing Italy) and after that Germany, Spain and Portugal are all right there.

As for Portugal being divers, they are no worse than France, Spain or Italy.
 
what a impressive performance by Spain today :eek:
but they always start good...anyway I think they're are more 'concrete' then Portugal. At the end of first round, the only real swiz was for my Italia :(
 
Italy just needs to start Del Piero next round once he came in the game they started getting more shots on goal
 
France look the same as Italy, too cautious. They played two holding players against Romania, that was awful. Romania play every man behind the ball, there was no need for two people to be securing the defence.

France's tactics were: us six (GK not included) will make sure we don't lose, you four go and break down those 10 defenders.
