hmm, first half I would say they weren't as good, but in the second half they were definitely playing well, maybe "top of their game" was a slight exaggeration, but what I meant was that Holland outplayed a very good side, rather than Italy simply being poor and easily beaten.

anyway, looking forward to tonight's matches (even though I have 6 hours of exams tomorrow...)

Predictions: Greece 2 Spain 1 and Sweeden 2 Russia 0

Spains playing Russia and Greece is playing Sweeden I believe

oops, my bad.

in that case, I think Spain 1 Russia 0, and Greece 2 Sweeden 1

Spain! Man that was a good one.

ed... · « **Reply #63 on:** June 10, 2008, 11:04:40 AM »

4-1, I was a mile off. Spain are looking good, they tend to disappoint at tournaments, but I'd like to see them do well this year.

Spain's midfield was unreal, so many perfect passes. Villa did very well with his runs, much deserved hat trick. What a match.

I didn't get to see the whole game, but it was quite exciting.

My prediction on the russia game was exactly right. stoked. Doesn't happen too often that I stand up and yell at the tv when I'm alone at home.
Well, gonna go back to watching sweden - hellas now.

I forgot to post predictions here but I thought the Russians would lose by a narrower margin but I nailed the Sweden game.

The Greeks play horrible, horrible football, I couldn't even watch the game.

I have Czechs losing 2:1 to Portugal and a 2:2 tie between Turkey and Switzerland, maybe a win for the Swiss...

Lasero · « **Reply #68 on:** June 10, 2008, 01:54:28 PM »

great match, villa was perfect today, spain played well but don't worry they'll fuck up in quarter finals like they always do...

frisco · « **Reply #69 on:** June 10, 2008, 02:03:14 PM »

Im so unstoked I havnt watched a game yet, hopefully theres a good matchup on the weekend

ed... · « **Reply #70 on:** June 10, 2008, 02:06:45 PM »

I was hoping Greece would come out all guns blazing and try to defend their title, how wrong I was. Even when Sweeden finally scored they still looked like they couldn't be bothered.

Alan · « **Reply #71 on:** June 10, 2008, 02:08:32 PM »

Ok, I gotta ask. Why do you always write Sweeden?

ed... · « **Reply #72 on:** June 10, 2008, 02:37:33 PM »

hah, good question. Just spelling it wrong, pretty much. Apologies to any Swedes...does anyone from Sweden post on here?

McDuff · « **Reply #73 on:** June 11, 2008, 08:14:09 AM »

missed the sweden game, but saw the highlights. syked that sweden won actually, who wants a repeat? anyways portugal is on in 40 min. im going Portugal 2 - Czech Rep. 1 . Ronaldo and Nani with the goals.

McDuff · « **Reply #74 on:** June 11, 2008, 09:18:24 AM »

ok my predictions went down the shitter pretty much. this game is intense. at this rate its gonna be something like 5-4.

frisco · « **Reply #75 on:** June 11, 2008, 09:30:30 AM »

Does anyone know where i can find a radio broadcast of any of the games online? in english.

3-1, good game

McDuff · « **Reply #80 on:** June 11, 2008, 10:54:08 AM »

definitley exciting. ronaldo seemed kinda off the whole day, but you can tell he was gonna score before the game was over. bummed they didnt play nani. but word. czech was makin some saves, and the czechs played better in general. syked for the next one...

SFblah · « **Reply #81 on:** June 11, 2008, 11:17:00 AM »

Yea, I'm glad I got to catch the last half on lunch break.

Hilarious ninja kick towards Portugal's goalie from the big bald Czech towards the end.

Sucks to be at work. The Turkey - Swiss game sounds amazing from what I read just now. Turkey coming in at the end with the win.

Cthulhu! · « **Reply #84 on:** June 11, 2008, 01:50:31 PM »

So good! They pulled it off at the end. Not to mention the serious amount of rain that was pouring in the beginning.

ahlee · « **Reply #85 on:** June 11, 2008, 01:53:46 PM »

fuck yea turkey!! pulled through right at the end!

Turkey and Swiss is a decent sandwich, but equates to a shitty football game.

Alan · « **Reply #88 on:** June 11, 2008, 02:16:30 PM »

The weather sucked because it made the commentators here make shitty jokes about the rain the whole fucking time.
