Didn't see those....wasn't sure anyone would have had enough of a sense of humour to post anything like that after thursdays game....

Go err, damn. I was actually cheering for England here at school, among the 3 people that watched the game in a corner of the student life center. Someone even had a big white flag with a red cross draped over his shoulders. Ah well. I'm not into soccer, but I was cheering for England just because, well, they are anglophones.

Better luck next time.

Holland are through on penalties (0-0 after 120 mins). Very tight game, very little between the teams. Holland were due to win a penalty shootout though. They lost all four penalty shootouts they played before this one...

good result for holland last night......tonights game will see the czechs win i think.......their B team mauled the germans so the danes should be no real match

Czechs through now and playing Greece.. think they will make the final.. Unless portugal get some more hometown decisions i think Czechs will win it..

No, only Gary Neville Played "very well".

Sol was a little better than that and Ashley Cole played the game of his life. He was brilliant!

Cole was so good it was funny, almost no one could get past him and towards the end of the match I was cracking up at how superb he was, especially seeing as some people said he couldn't defend. The way that he was peeing all over fake Ronaldo for the best part of 120 minutes was the funniest thing I've seen in ages.

See the other thread on this.

Then repeat to yourself "The referee's decision is FINAL".

Well that was a complete bloody waste of time, we could have stopped after the first match. Greece v Portugal in the final.

The loss of Pavel Nedved was as damaging to the Czech's as Rooney's early departure for England. Well done Greece and the Bolton Wanderers, ex Leicester City, ex Sheffield Utd players and the rest of the team, they look a very fit side.
With the exception of Figo and Ronaldo very few "galacticos" from the Premiership, La Liga or Serie A have reached the final. I think that this competition has come to soon for the "superstars" they are all knackered.

Yes, I have heard this mentioned as a reason for why the big footballing nations have all gone out early. The leagues their players are in are all so heavy that their players just aren't as fit as the smaller nations' players. Still, nice to see the small ones do well.

though this was amusing, got it from another site.
