  • I thought both games were well worth watching, but then again i'm known by some as the guy who can enjoy players keeping their defensive positions on the field.

    • I can enjoy tactical games too, and in fairness, with Belgium not in it, it makes the whole thing just a little less interesting to begin with, for me anyway.
      There's is less build-up, excitement, noone to really support for etc..

      Today, no team except Greece had a tactical plan though, - they executed it to perfection btw - all I saw was a bunch of individually very talented players playing a game of beach football.

      • Put down a €5 bet on each game. That'll give you some passion over the games and their outcomes.

            • Max, what didn't you like about it? I found it to be at least as good as Spain-Russia, if not better. Nice open football, good action from Croatians, some decent performance by Swiss. Sure, many small mistakes, but enjoyable overall - hardly any moments that were dully slow, as some last night.

              • Spain-Russia was a GOOD fight. The Spaniards was ineffective for most of the match but still very dangerous. And they made one of those, which make a winner. A goal!

                The Russians defended themself more and much better than expected (by me).

                I really would like if they (the Russians) had it 0-0 , or better - if they had got a lucky goal - but they didn't as all knows now. Why? Simply because Spain has been an evil "ghost" for Denmark as long as I remember ).

                BUT back to ..... Switzerland-Croatia....... They really played BAD. Both of them. Simply BAD.

                      • OK, a tough situation now. England in lead by 1-0 at the break. I really want them to win, but I predicted it would be a 1-1 draw. I usually predict results as I think them likely, which quite often contradicts with what I would like to see...

                          Lets hope you predicted it wrong, but we have yet to see what the coaches are going to do...

                          • For some reason I foresee a red card to Paul Scholes, but then again, judging from the prediction thread, I'm not quite the authority in this business...

                            Come on England, only 40 minutes to go

                              • What was the need for that 2nd french goal?
                                That 1-1 just made my day. *sob*

                                Why oh WHY does that Zidane has to score that penalty.
                                WHY OH WHY

                                Paul, can I get that 4 points anyway for predicting the right score 20 seconds before the end?
