Mother fvcker. I had to work during the game so I capped it on my computer. The capture ended at the end of regulation.
The kicker is I saw the tv program running when I got in and it was right when they had their break before extra time. Just looked at the score. At least I got the result I wanted

I still can't believed what have we done yesterday.
I hope Holland will meet my country to the semi finals today, and make me happy again. :laugh:
GO ORANJE!!!! :thumbsup:
No, the only possibility is that Greece will meet Holland in the final.

?
The dutch/czech game was easily the best game so far... And the dutch easily outplayed Latvia. They've played well enough in every game they've had to play well in.

No.
Holland has played a team with no tournament experience and a limp German side. They did fairly well against the Czechs, but I would hardly call it the most exciting game yet. Pffft.

I assume that you mean 2night's game and I completely agree with you. They were both afraid each other. Well these things happen at quarter and semi finals. They were both afraid to play attacking football. I have a feeling though that Sweden wanted after sometime in the match to lead it to the penalties. But I admit they were unlucky in the end. It's one of the few times that luck didn't turn her back on Holland.
If only Frank wouldn't have to leave injured. Maybe things would have been easier for Holland since Advocaat wouldn't have to spend a substitution. Makaay's weird role in the end, is beyond my imagination.
He was playing at the right wing and coming from behind as a second CF. WTF?
Another great game by Roben. He never ceazes to amaze me. Fantastic player.

Robben thoroughly impressed me as well. Probably the best player on the field today.
How does playing some poor teams make them undeserving of advancement? Someone has to play them and someone has to beat them. Holland made it through in arguably the toughest group in the tournament.

Surely the toughest group was Sweden/Denmark/Bulgaria/Italy? Holland and Czech Republic had nothing to fear from Germany and Latvia
