They are obviously just letting their emotions do the judgement.

Ronaldo had no choice for that penalty. Portugal defense let Greece break through far too often. It was to the best interest of the team to take a chance with penalty rather than conceding what looked like a sure goal.

And I fully agree that he was one of few players making a difference on the pitch. I think Ronaldo will start next one against Russia.

He thinks he's playing for United right now, looking for van Nistelrooy on the back post.

Had a couple of shots deflected out too. Played better than most of his teammates at least.

Yeah I so agree.

He keeps on crossing to the back post, but too bad. Nobody there. Happened so many times.

That Ronaldo goal was also a very typical goal he scores for United.

Yeah and you might have think that dumb@ss Pauleta would have known better than to position himself at the near side of the post.

Sucks for me, mum invaded the tv before I could watch the Ronaldo goal. Sigh.....Joys of bumming with parents. This world is so so sick.

w00000t for the underdog!!!!!

So your mum doesn't like football? Have you ever wondered if you were adopted ;-)

Ayone in the Atlanta area is welcome to swing by and watch with me. PM me.

 

[Sephy]

Hahahaha....YES! I am ecstatic for Greece. They have a very good shot of moving on now.

Spain/Russia game, so far, is much more enjoyable. Good to see the Russians playing so well. They had quite a few good opportunities.

Agreed, nice game.

I got the Real package. All they have is live audio, which is better then nothing, and highlight after. I can live with that.

Yeah, live audio is not bad. I once listened through BBC Canada for an Arsenal match they didn't show here. It's old school but radio commentators tend to be better than TV.

Yeah, first half was awesome.

 

[biostud]

So the Russians lost the steam in 2nd half

 

[Sephy]

So, tomorrow's games?
Swiss 0 - 2 Croatia
England 1 - 1 France

 

[biostud]

My guess: France - England 2-1

 

[spherrod]

Great appetisers tonight for the main course tomorrow Think Switzerland v Croatia may be a bit tighter than 0 - 2, but while my heart says an England win, my head says England 1 France 1
