Shit... I lost 7 points for this penalty in overtime (including the yellow card). Bad choice of captain again.

I'm bad, I'm bad....
Nani didn't play the match, Carvalho conceded a goal. What will it be the next time ? Van der Sar 'll concede 5 goals, a red card for Ribery, no goal from Torres ???? |

And we're 13 now !
A Venezuelian bloke joined - or so he says, about being from Venezuela. He popped at #4. His team : lionel hutz - welcome ! I'm #7, right in the middle of the table. I started this League, I guess I'm bound not to be too high and not too low in order to keep the guests at ease. My pal, Glasgow Enculouz, asked for a tip yesterday, I mentioned the name of one of his players, and this player is now ruled out. Eh eh eh... Now, if I type Buffon... Torres... Klose... Ballack... Pepe... will they sprain their ankles? |

And right after typing this, I read that Pavlyuchenko might not play!
My captain! I said nothing about those guys above, whoever you are, powerful spirit, let my Russian play, it was only, really, a joke! Yesterday games were strange. Germany didn't look like anything. A bunch of posts in the grass. Modric is some player. Austria had a terrific start, and Boruc was the only Polish player able to keep his team alive. Then they scored and Austria fainted. Then Poland decided not to play anymore and got punished for that (those late corner kicks). Fine for the hosts. |

Well, Harvik is on my bench anyway, so it would've been cruel if he had scored both those huge chances. (does this game have auto-substitution btw?)
Hey, does anyone know if Cannavaro will be playing today? Even on those crutches he looks a lot faster than Materrazzi... ![]() |

Sorry nicfit!
![]() In other team news, the newspapers here seem to suggest that Evra will be starting instead of Abidal for France... would that be correct? Time to play the good ol' wildcard then. So far I have only 14 points from 6 players in this round... abysmal! I can't believe I'm still number 1 in our league. May the best team win tonight. (... unless it's France of course!) |

ha ha it's ok, I'm not a die-hard supporter and as I said italy should start thinking about scoring goals instead of its somewhat crappy defence without real "champions".. i'll think about a possible wild card too, but i'm not much up to date with formations and stuff-.--

well, looks like the actual lineup will be zambrotta, grosso, chiellini and panucci ![]() I'm glad Donadoni chose panucci, he can do well.

Donadoni looks like Wayne Coyne.

oh about the italy-romania match
everything went as I expected. clumsy horrid defence, toni not yet at ease, some good cassano moments and not much more. Good game by romania, they didn't much to "build" actions but they did good when they had the ball, pretty effective.

yep. didn't check the time of the games, if italy-france is before orange people - romania it might be a cool match after all.
if it's after, it might be a 90' of insults from the supporters in the stadium if romania wins before. I just hope holland will keep playing this well and win over romania.they're not just playing well, they manage to turn everything to gold, each attack action is different and dangerous as hell. Definitely the most impressive team along with spain and portugal. Let's not forget they destroyed the 2 world cup finalists (both not in top condition, but still...).

That team was great !
Before the avalanche of goals, they kept the ball and moved it so easily. And whenever the French became threatening, Van Bronckhorst altered the rhythm (going forward quickly to remind the blues that there could be danger from the orange or cooling things down). The third goal bludgeoned the French. The winning side goals were amazing (well, maybe not Kuyt's). I can't remember a defeat of that kind for France (4-1). Before Zidane wore the blue shirt, even Cantona maybe. A big competition, two years ago, France facing Italy for the title. This big competition, in four days, the same teams could be facing each other in vain. Close ups on the players faces will be interesting. I'm pretty sure the oranges will try to win against Romania (who won't have fullback Goian), they've had 6 different scorers who will want their partners to join them in their netting happiness. Teams who score through many players tend to end up well (France 98, Italy 06). Romania - Netherlands and Sweaty France - Sweaty Italy will both start at 20:45. I don't think there will be calculation. |

Shit shit shit !!!!
Quelle branlée !!! The defense was dazed and confused. Nothing much to say about this match (I didn't see it), except I hope Malouda will not play the next (but not the last)one. |

Forget what I said about Malouda, I've just seen a recap, and I'd say Coupet and Thuram should be on the bench for the next game.

Bring on Mexès!... Oh wait... At work, we did a lottery before the start of the tournament, where everyone had to pick one paper out of 16, on each paper was written the name of the team and the one who has the winning team will win the lottery. I picked Holland. At least, I might win something out of this. |
