HAHAHHAHAA
HAHAHAHHAHAAH
We won what a borring game and everybody could have won don't bother saying sweden was better or holland was better they both played like they were tired and what the heck the dutch literately never won with penalties so that's one more thing to be happy about we were out in 92,98 and 2000 because of some stupid penalty taking and now we are through
damn! I hope denmark wins today

Congrats Billgoodman, I thought Holland played better and wanted to win more badly, althought Sweden did have those two shots at the post, right at the end. Holland still doesn´t seem to be playing at its top level, but they have players that can take advantage of a single mistake from the defenses, something Portugal seems to be doing every game. On the other hand, Portugal has two more days of rest. We´ll see what happens on Wednsday. |

Bravo la Grèce ! Well done Greece ! MCA, congratulations ... you didn't steal that victory, for sure. I had said in a previous post I wished France to beat Greece, because you can't win a game before it's played. And you must prove it on the pitch ... France didn't, Greece did. But I got a question : how will Greece finish those building works before the olympic games to begin if they keep on winning at the euro ? Because, if they go on celebrating the way they did after beating France, noone will go back on building sites anymore ...

nono it's only normal that you wished to beat us. i actually was thinking that we were going to play just another embarassing game like the one against russia and get 3-4 goals. instead i saw a compact team without extraordinary tecnical skills but organized without stress and determined to do its best. my wildest hope was to stay 0-0 and end to penalties. greeks didn't expect a miracle to happen but now that it's happened they don't care that much about the olympic games anymore. we always loved football more than the other sports but never got to win anything other than negative records and total embarassement. now we believe in miracles and we want more. i confess that i was crying of joy when the game finished and i'm not the type that cries often. i know that football fans make laugh of us and attribute our victory more to french inefficiency and not to our skills but who cares? anyway this is our chance to make history. france, spain, italy, england, germany are the best teams in the world and they will come back in the next tournament. greece has just this opportunity to make us dream before returning to oblivion.
PS thanks to all of those who will support greece in the next game against the chech rep. (or hopefully denmark)

Yeah, MCA, who cares ? You deserve your victory because you succeed in scoring one more goal than us.
But, sorry, I think Czech Republic is the big favourite now. Good luck, Greeks !

the czechs should beat greece, but then all those other teams should have beaten greece too and didn't. and i don't think holland will be able to beat portugal....
but yeah, czech to win - they've played fabulous football all tournament and haven't looked like losing a game.

Congrats MCA, you deserved to go further, and we deserved to fail. It is always nice when an outsider surprises everyone - like Rocky Balboa. |

we're out and it's ok the portugese were better although I have to say that the referee was a freakin cockknocker who really was against holland (haha, easy to say, it's all his fault!)
and one more thing can you believe the portugal goalie? this ricardo guy not one but two fake injuries Van Hooijdonk stands on his left foot (not on purpose and couldn't have been an injury) and Ricardo grabs his RIGHT leg! what a fraud crybaby fucker DUMBASS! I'm gonna 13541u35bfaquiyruiefhnaqjodfewt him
.....but I'm ok now we lost because portugal was better

Damn Ronaldo. I'm offering my sweepstake prize money to anyone who punches him in the face.
I'm gutted for you Bill. I wish the semis were the other way round, cos I don't know who to back now, Greece or Czech Rep. I think Czech Republic for the tournament though - they've looked like the only team in the competition who've deserved to win it.
Kind regards, Simon Admissions |

My mate is set to win £250 on his bet on Baros to be top goal scorer. Czech to win it, the only team to have not lost a game and look by far the best side going forward. A case of, not the best players in the world but one hell of a team.

(little stage whisper : will any ManUd fan (Homers for example, cos I didn't think he is a City fan, loving that Ronaldo ...) be able to tell me why Ferguson got rid of Barthez ? He was irreproachable during this Euro ... that's very mysterious to us french people ... come on, an american as a goalkeeper ... what a bet !)

We´re in the final! We´re in the final! Was it me or was this game kind of boring? Maybe it´s just impossible to surpass the excitment of the England - Portugal game? Maniche´s goal was beautiful though:
Scolari has to leave Pauleta in the bench for the final.

i must congratulate ferguson for his decision of getting rid of barthez. the only thing that saves barthez is that is the luckiest person on earth because he sucks bigtime as a goalkeeper.

actually i am of this opinion since euro 2000. without his luck barthez would never get to play in our national team, let alone in a team like france.

what luck are you talking about ?
in 2000, France was a bit lucky, not only Barthez. but if you say France was ONLY lucky to win against Spain (with a penalty missed by Raul), against Portugal (Zidane's golden goal on penalty, after Abel Xavier hand) and against Italy (what an end !), I disagree and say that success often come from will, motivation and perseverance.

no i am talking only about barthez, not about the whole team either france or MU. i've watched him a thousand times saving goals or more exactly NOT taking goals that were sure shots. maybe it's just a stupid thing of mine but i can't help thinking about it when i see him play.

Barthez is not half as good as Howard. Trust me, it won't be long until he recognised as the greatest in the world.
Yes Simon, even better than Niemi (sic).

I can't believe it !!! Greece in final ! Is there a new rule : when you organize a tournament, you choose the team you gonna beat in final ... If Portugal doesn't win, there's definitely a bug.
GIVE US OUR BIG COUNTRIES (remember Korea) sob
