I'm just hoping France are being slow starters again. We'll see against Holland. Poor game but Romania were well drilled and never seemed that troubled.
And 2-0 Holland already! Even if the first goal was the worst decision ever.

Hey, stuff happening. And happening for the Dutch, too.

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
First goal was definitely iffy, but that second goal was brilliant. Otherwise it was a fantastic performance thus far by Holland.
Germany were great yesterday and certainly feel more confident about them doing well than I did.
Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.
I have heard an explanation for why the first goal was valid, but have no idea how much of it is reflecting the rules accurately, and how much of it is rabid Italy hatred talking XD
Come on Greece tomorrow!
EDIT: Well er...don't think anyone saw this result coming before the game. This'll shake things up and no mistake.

Oyeah, Holland represent!
Podolski with 2 goals in that game... he's my prediction of top scorer for the Euro!
Apparently in offside situation players behind the goal line are counted as on the pitch, according to www.bundesliga.de and euro2008.uefa.com - Home Page
.
It says the decision was correct. I wonder if thats all there is to it?
Also, be interesting to see how Spain do!

Ugh, I know Greece are pretty defensive but this passing the ball to each other in their own half is pushing it a bit (I swear despite everything they never did that four years ago). Even I'm getting embarrassed a little, and I'm Greek!
Good start by Spain.
EDIT: Good start Greece, lose and make yourselves unpopular in the process. Doh!
Back to Group A tomorrow...

The most entertaining matches so far have all involved the big teams. A few of those seem to be meeting each other in the next round of games, so I reckon we'll see some more exciting contests over the next few days, starting with the Portuguese and Czechs tomorrow.

I've been doing this everywhere, but I have to apologise for that Greece performance. It's like Chelsea but 100 times worse XD
I'm looking forward to today's games, but not looking forward to hearing ITV go on and on about Ronaldo when Portugal play (like they did in their first game). There are 21 other players out there!
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
I think Germany looked excellent as did Spain, but based on track record, I'm not sold on them yet.
Also, hey Rafa, David Villa looks mighty good playing next to Torres, no? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
Take care all.
Scolari is the new Chelsea manager!
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
That sucks! He was a great manager for our team... ah well maybe we can convince Mourinho XDOriginally Posted by charliepanayi
Mourinho is at Inter!
Poor Switzerland
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
It seems I grossly overrated Switzerland. I thought that they had a promising young team full of energy and that, plus home advantage, might just see them pull off an upset. Oh well.
Also I hate that commentators have developed Wayne Rooney disease with regards to Cristiano Ronaldo. It's like "Deco to Simao, to RONALDO OH MY GOD CRISTIANO IS ON THE MOTHERsmurfING BALL JESUS CHRIST LOOK IT'S RONALDO HE'S DOING STUFF to Nuno Gomes". Okay. Yes. We get it. He's a great player. But he's not perfect. Don't screech his name and <img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /> kittens if he's just letting off a scuffed and tame shot. If he does something wonderful, hey, go for it, but no player does something wonderful every time they get the ball, so just wait.
