Speaking of Spurs, one question comes to mind ..

which London teams' fans hate each other the most?

West Ham - Milwall?
West Ham - Tottenham?
Arsenal - Tottenham?

YES.

also-- i thought that france threw away scoring chances near the end. they'd kick the ball just for the hell of it! blam, to the fucking moon! i wanted a 3-0.

suprised to see benzema wake up as last game i thought he was a bit nowhere.

ribéry as usual AWESOME. and i don't understand why people don't like nasri-- okay, he wasn't as present as the last game but he's good and that free kick was pretty great even though he didn't score.

oh, teams coming back out.

demonrail666 · 06.15.2012, 04:58 PM

That was torture!

England fell apart at the beginning of the second half and I thought they were buried when they went 2-1 down. Walcott and Welbeck's goals were both just freaky. Thought Glen Johnson and Gerrard were both superb. Ashley Young was awful, though, and, mpre surprisingly, Ashley Cole wasn't so great tonight, either.

This is all gonna cause major headaches for Hodgson's team selection, with Rooney back in play. He has to replace Young, surely. But lots of other big decisions to be made.

i still cant tell if welbeck meant that or if he just got lucky. at first i thought fluke but if you look at the replay he might have just played for that. in that case they will probably say that was the goal of the tournament.

I'd say he meant it but was pretty lucky that it came off.

Bye Zlatan

demonrail666 · 06.15.2012, 06:09 PM

There's something deeply unlikable about that man.

the ikara cult · 06.15.2012, 07:40 PM

I had been led to believe the original edition of his book read "I, Zlatan" in Swedish/Italian, demonstrating Zlatan's world famous sense of perspective.

anyway, you get in Joe Harts face after taking the lead, you then end up losing. Nice one Zlatan

Yeah, I saw that but couldn't work it out at the time. I wasn't sure if Hart had bumped him or something. Seeing it again now, what a cunt.

demonrail666 · 06.16.2012, 04:27 PM

Do svidanja, Andrei

Russia going out has to be the biggest upset so far, especially with Greece going through. Football, ah? Bloody hell.

He looks like a wind sock at the side of a remote Russian airport runway.

YEAH!

Although not very likely, I hope Boulahrouz will be guarding Ronaldo tonight. A good ol' kicking frenzy would be a fitting ending to Holland's Euro campaign.

!@#$%! · 06.17.2012, 11:28 AM

i know there are not many fans of germany here and portugal-netherlands might be the source of much more entertainment, but i'm worried about boateng's suspension. fuckit, after yesterday's results, anything is possible.

That one, plus that one moment in the last 15 minutes where Huntelaar gestures "press forward". Sneijder looks over his shoulder to check if Heitinga takes over his man and Heitinga indeed steps forward (5 meter). Sneijder starts pressing with the other 3 forwards, but Germany can easily play around it because, when Sneijder looks over his shoulder again he sees Heitinga has ran 30 meters back all the way to the edge of his own box. The throw-away gesture said it all.

So disappointing. I really hoped Poland and Russia would be going through.

i think the whole planet was pretty much banking on that assumption.
