But it made for an interesting end to the match :) Feel bad for Poland on the other hand...

Hey Justin how did you watch the match???? Are you in Europe?
In Europe? No, unfortunately I'm not. Been watching the games on ESPN here in the states. With the time differences, it means I get to watch the games all late morning through mid afternoon :)

yeah when I was in the US and watched the Champions league finale, I already saw them advertising that they would broadcats the Euro 2008 games. Pretty awesome u get to see it. Now if they'd start broadcasting NFL over here i'd be totally happy haha :P

That's really a shame that the arbitrage is so pity, Italy should have won yesterday (and it's my brain that is writing), their goal right before the part time was ok...

And concerning the Netherlands yeah what a great game, blablabla, but would they win with so many goals if they did not have the referee with them (some penalties are forgotten, some goals off side, etc.) ? I'm not really sure... -_-

Thats just a lame effort... when you score 7 goals against the two teams battling it out in the last world cup final you cant say you have the ref with yah. Altough I agree that italy should have won yesterday and also that France should be rewarded a penalty. But both france and italy had enough chanses to score more goals...

yeah, definately, italy way playing very well yesterday, they just hadn't much luck...they were always trying o play offensive....so, no fuckin' "catenaccio" like in the 80s.

..and wow, have you seen what gianluigi buffon did on adrian mutu's penalty...a fantastic save!!! ...but unfortunately gianluca zambrotta made a big mistake on mutu's goal, a mistake which he does just 1 time in 10 years...that's really a pity!!! <_<

...against france antonio cassano should be in the starting formation....he's an excellent player who can make the difference.

i just hope that holland will also play against romania like they played against italy and france...very concentrated and offensive...i don't want to see them giving the victory to romania!!!

mm hard to say wich team I want to the last 8. Italy have fluidity to their play and they move the ball well, although they don’t get enough shots away. Holland have opened tournaments impressively in the past and bottled it however this time they may just go all the way. Italy and France both now have much to do to qualify and will need to improve to stand any chance. Even tho I hate the football they play in Italy I would much rather have Italy playing the last 8 then Romania.

Nuff said about that.

Today its Spain vs. Sweden and Hellas vs. Russia. Hellas and Russia didnt impress me at all, I would fancy seeing both Spain and Sweden go to the last 8. Sweden have the best payed player in the world in Zlatan, and probably have been boosted by the return of "Henke" but I cant see this side beating spain. However I think they will take Russia in the last game... Or atleast I hope so!

Spain should be too good for Sweden today.
I'm hoping Russia win and get through cause I've got them in the sweep at work.


I'd like to see Italy go through from the other group but it said on tv yesterday that Romania took 4 points off Holland in the qualifying, so they could spring a surprise.
