And here in Britain, the BBC is running endless radio spots encouraging us to pick a European national team to cheer on, ignoring all common wisdom about English football fans in the process; you can practically smell the desperation as they struggle to justify the ridiculous amount of money they've spent on acquiring the broadcast rights to matches nobody gives a toss about, and probably the complete absence of anything but repeats for the duration of the cup as well.
*sigh* You'd think they'd be sufficiently accustomed to the England football team to have a better contingency plan than this. |

Phew. Qualified. Anything else would have been embarressing... Although I respect the austrian team, Germany HAD to beat them.
OMG, POR - GER is gonna be a huge match! :nuts:

i would say that portugal will win...
Germany didn't show much so far. then again portugal does have some nervous players who might influence the whole team. and as a result constant pressure from Germany could turn the tides.

Yeah but honestly Germany didn't show much yet, while Portugal on the other hand did. I'm pleased that our reserve team beat Poland though.

I think CRO - TUR will be a game with lots of fouls in it...
 ITA - FRA was really lame... But it was clear that NED wouldn't lose against ROM.

The rest was won by The Dutch. Although............... It would have been fun if the Dutch DID loose from ROM. (Ok. Not For Italy and France, but still....)
