Just as i posted yesterday, i said the Russians might be tricky and that was what happened

but i wasn't expecting their trick to work against Nether oranjes

the Russians were all over and they played tiredlessly and got the reward for their efforts

the Dutch became totally lifeless during the 2nd period of the xtra time

may the Russians are just xplaining why they are in the tournament in place of England

i bet my English boys wouldn't have done up to these

The Spanish are crapping on themselves at the prospect of meeting Italy. Hope Donadoni doesn't Bleep up this one.

The back 5 is pretty settled. My preferred midfield trio would be De Rossi,Aquilani and Ambrosini.The attack should be Toni,Di Natale and Camoranesi(someone said he plays like a goat and looks like a goat grin )

The Italians should play a quick attacking game. . . the Spanish are there to be slaughtered.
Re: European Nations Cup 2008 Discussion Thread by folahann(m): 6:48pm On Jun 22, 2008
Now let's see may be this will be a Euro2008

where leaders of group will blame themselves

for toping their respective group tables

Portugal group One leaders Out!

Croatia got 9 points in their group Out!

Same as Netherlands, after slaughtering Italy and France

let's see if the case will be the same with spain

then next Euro you will not want to top your group
Re: European Nations Cup 2008 Discussion Thread by Cristalz(f): 7:24pm On Jun 22, 2008

Re: European Nations Cup 2008 Discussion Thread by mystikal(m): 8:40pm On Jun 22, 2008
maybe i've been spoilt by watching arsenal 2 believe football has to be pretty all the time, but this italian tactic is really boring to watch and not pretty at all.
the truth, they might still win the match at the end of the day, after spain's huffing and puffing

its my bday today, just got to know tht spain has always been losing matches on this day, hope its one better for them this time!
Re: European Nations Cup 2008 Discussion Thread by javaprince(m): 8:44pm On Jun 22, 2008
@tosindada
Thx for the info, But i myself missed the starting eleven.

Anyway ,
Italy 0, Spain 0
Expect Spain to rap their ass in Secondhalf. This will be settled before Extratime.
Re: European Nations Cup 2008 Discussion Thread by javaprince(m): 8:48pm On Jun 22, 2008
Second Half kicks off. This time Spain's goin to wrap them up. And send them to Italia.

@mystikal
