Euro 2012

Upsets against Germany's current squad? Yes.

by **JBlombier** on Thu Jun 14, 2012 2:29 am

Well, well. At least this game Germany deserved to win. If Holland can hardly score a goal, we don't deserve to be in the quarter finals. It's still possible to move on, yes. I guess we should be happy that Ronaldo is failing again and again. Too bad our players have made that a habit as well.

i don't know who's gonna win it.
i didn't think from the start spain would win, and i still don't think they will. germany either even if as usual, they'll reach the semis, at least.
i'd bet on italy... but hope france will do it !

man holland looked so good before the tournament now they arent even gonna make it past the group stages, Germany look unstoppable so far so i expect them to atleast make the final.

Who are the underdogs that look poised to advance? I'd like to root for them, ha.

Hmm not many surprises look likely, maybe one of the hosts.

I'd like to see the hosts do well. Also, seeing England break out of its habit of perennial under-performance would be nice.

well, they got a lot of ball possession, but that's about it.

sad to see them miss so many attempts, even while those attackers are supposedly among the best in the world. they did not really show for it.

When I watched the game, I noticed that when dutch get possession all of the attackers just run forward. Sniejder was the only player checking in for the ball, trying to work short passes. The rest just wanted to score a goal.

crap team, wonderful supporters.

so far ireland were the weakest side i've seen at this tournament.

by **nietzsche** on Thu Jun 14, 2012 3:45 pm

that's because the players spend their time chanting instead of training.

we arent a bad team its just the manager worked the players too hard in the run up to the tournament and it showed in the game vs spain, we were chasing the ball all game which is to be expected against spain but the players were wasted by the second half. plus conceding early in both of our games so far didnt help our cause. either way we were happy to just make the euros after the whole wc incident.if we get a point vs italy ill be happy and yes we do have magnificant supporters who will sing no matter what

Netherlands - 23% - is almost eliminated.
Germany - 18% - is almost qualified
Spain - 13% - is almost qualified
Rep. of Ireland - 10% - is eliminated.

also following today's results i like it how italy might go home even if they win in the last game versus ireland.
if spain and croatia get a draw with at least 2 goals each, then italy is out :lol:
