    Euro 2008 Prediction Competition -- Knockout Phase

    Continued from here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=177553

    The final match-ups for the quarter finals are the following:

    Portugal vs Germany
    Croatia vs Turkey
    Netherlands vs Russia
    Spain vs Italy

    The semi finals will be:

    Portugal/Germany vs Croatia/Turkey
    Netherlands/Russia vs Spain/Italy

    The final follows from that of course.


    The first of these matches is played tomorrow, and for that I still need predictions from:

    Maquiladora
    OneFootInTheGrave
    Victor Galis
    Dauphin
    Monk
    McMeadows
    Krill
    Badfuzzy

    As for myself:

    Portugal vs Germany 2-1

    Mine from other thread:

    Portugal vs Germany: 1-2
    Croatia vs Turkey: 2-0
    Netherlands vs Russia/Sweden*: 2-1
    Spain vs Italy: 1-0


    Hmm, you agree with me on three of the winners. Bad sign for you, Badfuzzy... very bad sign.

    Croatia vs Turkey 2-1
    Netherlands vs Russia 2-2
    Spain vs Italy 0-1

    It can easily be argued that my lack of score is mostly due to lacking exact scores and not outcomes.

    Still no great achievements from me - now my choice for champion and top scorer are out too. But as we say in the countries that didn't even qualify, it's not about winning at all. Right...

    Prepare to be amazed this time around though:

    Portugal - Germany 0-3
    Croatia - Turkey 1-2
    Netherlands - Russia 3-1
    Spain - Italy 1-2

    Not a prediction that's good for any points here - but I'll say I'll be surprised if the final doesn't include two of the three teams Germany, Holland and Italy.

    Crying Ronaldo

    Just keep it 2:1 and I'll get my 4 pts.


    p.s. Actually now I'm not sure about my 2:1 prediction.

    No, clearly Klose should now score 5 or 6 goals

    I would bet my money on Podolski as next scorer. Imho, he is the best in German team.

    Typical Portugal, really. They play some nice football early on, and get nowhere.

    Ballack putting his new club boss out of the competition. :hehe:
