Surely there must be other WW members who watch Euro 2008? Who's your favourite? I'm in .nl, and we sure cannot complain about our national team's performance so far :)
Not too sad personally though, am more a club supporter than international, and it also means at work we are less hit in our numbers than we would have been had the UK qualify.
I just don't want Portugal to win. Nothing against the country there is just pretty famous mama's boy in it I can't stand.
The games are on so ridiculously late over here, but at least from now on they are all pretty good games.
I just do not understand why the weekend games are on so late. It is not that hot in Europe right now and there must be many more TV viewers in the Middle East and Asia than in the US.
Clockwork Orange stopped running. The good thing about the defeat is that we won't be seeing all those orange-clad morons for a while. Didn't hear them when the team needed their support. Btw, Mr Hiddink, dear Guus, if you're reading this: hand in your passport, you traitor!
Don't rule out the Italians until their bus has left the stadium...
I hope they have a better bus driver than the French team:

Germany did it again: play bad and win in the last minute. I sure hope Spain beats them in the final!
The german team had better potential than the turkish team, the better players. Turkeys only chance was that Germany played bad. Germany did play bad, but the turkish team did not use this opportunity. The german team used the few chances they had efficently so they deserved to win. The major difference to other German teams in the past is how the three goals where scored. Usually it was: playing bad - winning through set piece situations. This time it was playing bad - but winning through three nicely set up goals.
I think Germany will beat Russia on Sunday.
