June 14, 201212 yr The game is off for Ireland(first team to exit)and GC is calming little down.Spain 4-0 Ireland,only 4 with God's mercy and then with Irish goalkeeper denying severals goals in the 1st half,though responsible for last 2 goals.Torres is back again with solid performance crowning it with 2 goals,then Silva also came to crown his good performance with a goal,Fabregas just enetred to dissapoint Irish with 4th goal.Female fans of Iker Cassillas may be sad to not see his cute face today,we didn't see him at all today(I saw him for only 1 minute,m 66),thanx to his teammates.One good thing for Irish whom had so weak,limited performance was their fans,just as Heyyou stated,they were supporting till the end,so good model for other fansMAYBE TOO EARLY TO SAY IT,but would Spain have the trinity for first time in history,Euro 2008,WC2010,then Euro 2012,or was Ireland just being weak?forgive me all.I didn't tend to be harsh on Ireland,I'm also not with Spain.
June 15, 201212 yr Author McClean! Finally! When it's too bloody late to do anything of note. I don't suppose we really learned anything with regard to Spain's chances of winning the tournament there - that was as poor as I've seen the Irish under Trapattoni. With the wretched group draw they received, I guess it was always going to be an uphill struggle for them. Incredible pictures coming from Donetsk at the moment, where a storm of biblical proportions has put a stop to France-Ukraine after just five minutes. I like a bit of tennis though so luckily, I'm used to rain delays.
June 15, 201212 yr Jeez, to me it looks like there will be no way in hell they'll be able to play this evening But I'll guess there's still a chance?
June 15, 201212 yr Author Apparently, if conditions don't improve enough to restart the game tonight, they'll replay it tomorrow evening.
June 15, 201212 yr after an hour delayFrance 2-0 Ukrainereally one of the worst,least entertaining matches so far,or at least worst 2nd match for teams.I see most big names are getting better results on their 2nd match,France,Spain,Portugal,Germany,except Italy and Holland.I was lost on this match,didn't enjoy it.
June 15, 201212 yr but it still has 3 points,so wait, and keep hope. so SL,hun,sports is another thing we share together I guess.
June 15, 201212 yr WHAT A GAME! I was pulling for england so that makes it even better but overall very entertaining and 3 beautiful goals.
June 15, 201212 yr blame it on the rain that delayed France match, I couldn't switch to the other channel,SO I couldn't see England's match (2nd time to miss England,so unlucky),so I expect 3 are meant for England??

June 15, 201212 yr You like to think that the near nightmare that tonight became will stand England in good stead. Technically they're subpar, they can't play keep ball for toffee and defensively they often look bullied but they have a bit of genuine craft when they need it and sometimes that's enough to get you over the line. Young's been a huge disappointment so far, Hart isn't commanding the six yard area at all, in fact set pieces in general are tormenting us; but hey, four points from two games is nothing to grumble about. I suspect the home crowd won't allow Ukraine to fall as flat as they did in the second half against France today so its still a pressure cooker situation but one that we've got to look at positively.Other notes: The BBC were much nicer about Hummels the second time around. Good to see Olof buzzing all over the place tonight, you've just gotta love the guy.
June 16, 201212 yr but it still has 3 points,so wait, and keep hope. so SL,hun,sports is another thing we share together I guess. I'm actually not a sports fan at all, but I just can't be indifferent to Ukraine Most likely it's the end of Ukraine, hope springs eternal though

Three years ago Croatia needed England's win to qualify on WC 2010. England didn't even try to win. England 2009 was much stronger then this team. Please, beat them again.

June 16, 201212 yr So now GA and GB all have chance,making it alot exciting,and 4 open possibilities for each groupGC and GD only 3 have hope.Today isGreece-RussiaCzech-Poland at the same time ofcourse.
June 16, 201212 yr SL,it's your right to pray for Ukraine nardev @ I understand your bitter feelings towards this,but it's football,it happened alot in football before,some times politics,racism take part in this,but when any team plays well and works hard for good results ,then it doesn't need another team to help it go forward,at the end it's fate and destiny.Let's all keep good hopes and best wishes for each others. ================================ Let's enjoy these beauties from Ukraine-France match Indeed this Euro has a very big amount of beauty presence
