you should see the swedish fans. parang espn kept showing the swedish girls more than the game haha...

 

halftime - portugal 1 czech rep 1

 

-czechs have come alive. baros is preferred over koller as the lone striker and he's giving portugal problems, running right at them.

-scolari starts with the same eleven. i'm surprised quaresma is still on the bench.

-great first half. very open and end to end. it's been very even - portugal needs to find another gear if they want to pull this out.

portugal passes their first real test with flying colors, and looks like they're the first team to qualify for the knockout stages. a concern though is gk ricardo who flaps at crosses and striker nuno gomes who has been invisible.

 

and following on duchess' theme:

turkey 2 switzerland 1

 

a 92nd minute goal! another pulsating match and the co-hosts are out! all the games in this tournament, except for france-romania, have been cracking. and this one might have been the best so far.

 

too bad for switzerland, they deserved more. i was impressed by their 19 year old forward, eren derdiyok. turkey's best player, i think, was their gk volkan - made a number of great saves.

 

 

**breaking news - scolari is the new chelsea manager. gotta question the timing of the announcement tho...

f#&k!

 

there goes my lunch money!

 

:cry:

 

fantastic goal by yakin, though. kobi looks just about ready to cry after turkey's second goal in extra time...

 

on another note... did you watch that game between spain and russia? that, definitely, was NOT cracking. :lol:

really? it was a great game, in my opinion. russia had numerous attempts and gave spain a lot of nervous moments...

 

and not be makontra, pero i thought yakin's goal was funny. the ball stopped on a puddle of water so he could tap in.

 

 

 

head-to-head pala ang tiebreaker for the euros, not goal difference. so portugal has secured top spot in group a. if i were scolari, i won't play deco or cristiano ronaldo. they need the rest (mahirap ang every 4 days) plus baka ma-injure pa.

yakin's goal wasnt funny, but his face was! did you see that look on his face when the ball stopped in front of him? not unlike an 11 year old who was flashed witless by jessica alba. :lol:

 

looking forward to germany's game tomorrow, even though they're up against croatia. damn... i shouldve just watched at the fanzone instead of in front of the tv tonight.

halftime: croatia 1 germany 0

 

-beautifully worked goal from croatia. intricate passing and then he cross - you don't see that stuff in the epl.

-lehmann saved a certain goal right before halftime.

-you gotta love coach bilic - he's no avram grant. he shows his emotions all game.

-germany should change something...maybe replace the invisible forwards with a more noticeable pair: claudia schiffer and heidi klum maybe?
