  1. I swear, I could feel myself ageing during tonight's second half. After the lively and generally enjoyable group stages, the knockout games have failed to deliver much other than the drama of penalties and a couple of (admittedly brilliant) 'Panenkas'. All of a sudden, it feels like the tournament is starting to wind down a bit. Hopefully, tomorrow's game and Sunday's final will liven things up again and provide us with one or two slightly more memorable moments.

    The debate will almost certainly continue to rage on about whether or not Spain are boring, which in itself is getting rather boring, but if they were able beat Italy or Germany on Sunday you could make a strong case for them to go down as the greatest international side ever. Like the Spanish style or not, nobody (at least, nobody to my knowledge) has ever won three major tournaments on the spin.

    And on a slightly different note, Van Maarwijk has apparently resigned as Holland manager. Somewhat inevitable, I suppose - cue rousing round of indifference. I%20dont%20know.gif

    :D It lulled me to sleep nicely and this is the football créme de la créme?

  2. Italy1-1 Croatia

    and if it was 2 -1 for Croatia,I wouldn't be surprised

    great,strong performance for Croatia all through the match,they were strong,fitter than 2nd- half -absent Italy,which had good defence though.I was happy with Italy all through 1st half,they played openely,insisted to score,defended well.But all vanished in 2nd half.

    It's 4 points now for Croatia,making it easy for them,Italy now 2 points,making it a complex situation.

    Actually it is very nice to hear this because everyone was trashing our team here in Croatia.

    I guess we weren't that bad but it's going to be a tricky game with Spain. I'm not sure if we can cope with them yet.

    Now go Ireland!!! :ddr:
