Euro 2012

[AndyDufresne]

does anybody know if there's a stat for the number of times a player hit the post at euro?
ronaldo already hit it 4 times. could this be some sort of negative record?

Finally made one past the post.

I like how he claimed the goal as if it was all him and not given to him on a platter by an amazing run and cross.

But yeh love Portugal for their skill; even Christy boy is amazing to watch, but god damn i wish theyd drink some fucking concrete.

[nietzsche]

What was the Czech Rep waiting for? Seriously, at minute 58 it was CLEAR they needed a change and the coach did nothing, after the goal, they kept defending like they were winning! It took 6 minutes to the coach to send a substitution, when there was like 8 minutes left. Disappointing.

It's not like Portugal is a super team, they look pretty against a team that allows them to attack.

[DiM]

omg. the greeks are playing the worst football ever.

in fact they aren't even trying to play football. every time they get the ball they kick it far away.

[GreecePwns]

Don't worry. We got 'em right where we want 'em.

[GreecePwns]

Gekas in for the pathetic Ninis, and Fotakis in for Tzavellas. This should be a much better second half.

[DiM]

Don't worry. We got 'em right where we want 'em.

don't enter the german half and hope neuer falls asleep, then quickly score while he's dreaming and snoring

[GreecePwns]

Ahahahahahahaahahahahahahahah YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

>mfw (the m stands for merkel's)

[DiM]

lol, i was right

[GreecePwns]

New strategy: give the ball to all the PAOK players. They do everything

[nagerous]

fucking Germans, nothing changes

[Sniper08]

fucking Germans, nothing changes

your hating on germany for being the better team?

They were threatening castration dude, are we going to split hairs here?

[spurgistan]

Of course Marx is the one who notices that he was totally fucking offsides.

[pmchugh]

Haha I seen that on facebook today, quality.

p.s. Georgios Samaras - player of the tournament.

[nietzsche]

socrates is supposed to be very fat

[Lootifer]

As much as we hate them, f*ck me the germans were solid.

[JBlombier]

Couldn't agree more. I've been giving them the benefit of every doubt since the pool phase. I think they'll stand a decent chance in the final against Spain, which will be an awesome match to watch.

[Seulessliathan]

fucking Germans, nothing changes

We love you too nag ....
What did we do wrong this time? Didn´t you like the show? What else did you expect us to do?

They were threatening castration dude, are we going to split hairs here?

eh, what?

Funny, my bet before the tournament was a final Spain-Netherlands, i was hoping you guys would give Spain a great fight. I would have liked to see Netherlands continue, not sure what went wrong finally.

[Gillipig]

Looks like I was not the only one who completely missjudged Netherlands this year. I had them as winner too.
I was not impressed by Germany yersterday! They missed a ton of scoring chances. Greece was a joke though. I hoped they would give Germany a hard fought game a t least but they didn't.
As much as I'm not impressed by Germany I still think they'll win it! England, Italy, France and Spain are all under performing. Portugal didn't look good either.

[TeeGee]

I thought you were talking about the Eurovision song contest.

Congrats to Sweden for a convincing win this year



It may have happenned a long time ago, but I only found out today

who voted Sweden in the poll?? well done to you too

[DiM]

i never thought i could fall asleep at a european quarter final game between france and spain.
this is probably the most boring game so far.
so many great players on the field and such a crappy show.
i truly hope portugal pulverises spain, and germany does the same to whoever they'll face so we can have a proper show in the final.


PS: is it me or this edition of the euro is one of the most disappointing ever? except for germany and portugal nobody showed class and skill.

[nietzsche]

It seems the only strong teams are Spain and Germany,

England is the only other possibility.

Kind of a disappointment really.

[GreecePwns]

I, for one, welcome the new-found parity in international football, which is a stark contrast to the growing gaps and concentration of talent in European club football. It's not like it's horrible football being played, just more evenly matched football.
