Honestly, if Italy and France both get smashed by the Netherlands and cant get more than a point against Romania...they dont deserve to go through tactics or not. I dont think its a stretch at all to suggest the current quality of the teams in the group play is reflect by the table. Its not rocket science, you have 3 matches and you have to finish in the top 2...which means your going to have to win, especially if you lose a match in the mix. Both of the sides in danger havent...and thats why they wont be going through.hahaha3hahaha wrote:Netherlands are going to lose to Romania on purpose now, that way Netherlands and Romania advance regardless of Italy's match against France, that's what annoys me- rigging games to rid the competition of the worlds best 2 teams, football is no longer skill, it's cheap and dirty tactics y'know what I mean?

Not only you open yourself up for a possible UEFA investigation and dismissal from the tournament, you are also setting Spain up for an easy-peasy quaterfinal so that they beat yourself in semis!!!
On the other hand, the dutch can safely rest slightly injured players as well as players on yellow cards. But if you imagine what a regular benchwarmer will do in such games, he will work his socks off to show that he is good enough!! BTW, the dutch seem to have the best quality bench, as all their sub so far were superb.

And we're still in there Sammy boy. :p With 4 points not 1 or 2 and Romania sent home thanks to some fair play by the Dutch.sam_levi_11 wrote:
yer this all true but i still want you to go out
and i only support spain cos im part spanish and romania cos they are underdogs...i never supported poland, just pretended i did for oktawia.
also 2 points may not be 1 point but its still enough to send you out
Now if we beat our Spanish brothers we would be sending home your other favourite team! :p

Re: Euro2008
Winning a group does not mean progressing to the semis. Winning group games in style usually means your form and luck dips closer towards the final. Judging by your predictions, you dont know much about footie. I hope to prove you wrong tonight...
Essentially, only Croatia-Turkey looks like a done deal. The remaining three are widely open...

Re: Euro2008
Good Luck to the Germans today in their match against Portuga!!!!
It should be a very good match to watch. Too bad I'm stuck at work and cannot watch it online due to all video's being suppressed. (firewall)
At leat the BBC has a fairly up to date ticker that I can keep tabs on.
GO GERMANY GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Though the dutch seem to have an unbelievable amount of luck, they also play great. They played as a real team.

Half-Time sees the Germans up 2-1. Both teams have had numerous chances to score as well. It'll be an interesting 2nd half.

I hope the winner beats germany at least. I'd love to see either of them in the final. (I'm going for croatia, as I really don't want to be here when Turkey loses. You wouldn't believe the amount of celebration when Turkey got into the quarter finals here. Shit was so cash.)
