I seen that there is a football thread, but felt that a big tournament like Euro 2012 deserved it's own thread. So here it is!

I was really impressed by the Russians. The Czech Republic are no slouches, but Russia just seemed to have too much for them to cope with. They should definitely top their group. The Poland v Greece match was very exciting, even though controversy played a large part in that. I dunno what the referee was thinking, as both of the yellow cards which led to Papastathopoulos' sending off weren't even fouls, let alone yellow cards! The Greeks showed such spirit in the 2nd half to come back with 10 men, and I felt they deserved to win it, shame they only got a draw...

Can't wait for the 2 games today, they should both be great!

the football they play is totally NOT boring and not even that slow. It is the hardest sort of football a team can play. What's next goign for over 80% possession at the next WC?

Ye, I know, I actually think exactly the same thing ! My comment was a little irony adressed to all those that doubt of their quality (see german and italian newspapers.. they gonna have to eat their words ).

Spain 4-0 Italy
David Silva 14
Jordi Alba 41
Fernando Torres 84
Juan mata 88

So spain did it agan 3 time sin row , Spain is bets football team in world, this is not real madrid who buy , but this si spanish players who grow up in home land and get there whit playing, spain won last Ec in Austria/Suisse 2008, last World Cup in South Africa 2010, this EC in Poland/Ukraien 2012, will thay win next World Cup in Brazil 2014 and same next Euro 2016 in France?
Franec I doubt so but Brazil , we will see,
Italyu dont play bad but simply 1th goal was defenders mistace,secend was bo chance to save, last 2 goals was nothing because Italy was bussy to get beck and in this cases defense doesnt metter, but Italy played also good criated some chances some half chances, same like Spain but spain use 4 and get 4 gaols

Its over , no need talk about it

Even considering the chances Italy got a couple of times, Casillas did a wonderful work on that game.

Yeah and if you look generally conceading only one single goal (not including penalties against Portugal) on the whole tournament is quite stunning...of course the whole defence / team helped also and did a great job in this case, but still.

I'm wondering if this could be the record on the EC...will check this out.

Well Xavi could be replaced to an extent by Fabregas. They didnt even need Villa or Puyol, Senna got replaced by Alonso whos way better anyway, the left back got replaced by Alba whos way better.

I was worried about the climate in Brazil effecting whatever team we send over there, either blistering heat or oceans of rain, but remembered its winter over there at world cup time, so should suit european sides.

Yea, it will be annoying. Before this tourney Spain started actually losing a few friendlies so hopefully by the next WC more teams will be able to play against them.

At least we agree on football... Fucking fuck I wanted Germany to win. STILL can't believe those two goals. what the fuck...
As consolation... I demand that Spain will crush Italy! CRUSH I SAY.

Destroy them!!! WIPE THE FIELD WITH THEM!!!


Italy got FUCKING OWNED.




I have no words to describe how happy I was watching that beautiful game. High five to all fans of Spain!

I was dead tired after a bike trip over the weekend, about 750km to the hills and back. But I was really happy that I managed to sit up and watch the game. It was awesome, sorta one sided, but Spain were just so brutal
I love watching Spain play actually, I love how they pass the ball, I don't get why people say its boring. Try holding the ball for that long and making so many perfect passes. If they win the next WC it will be awesome But then they should just change the whole team, bring in a fresh new young squad and train them for the 2020 EC & 2022WC

that's a typo right? because even driving 750km with a car in 2 days is too much.

750 kms in 2 days by car is totally not too much.

On holiday in South Africa I drove 4,500 kms in 20 days total holiday, that included days of not driving as well.
