If you weren't the hosts, the question would be if *you* would be there, 'cuz if you can't even win from a weak-ass Latvia and the Czech and Hungarian reserves, and if a few Romanian seniors beat you 5-1, I very much doubt you'd survive the qualifiers...

Right before it starts.

England - Portugal 2-2

[Chemical Ollie]

1-0 with 15 minutes left. Go England!

(I would rather see Sweden face them in the semi if we beat Holland. We know England well and they have not beaten us in ages, despite plenty of important games in the Euro Cup and World Cup. And it will be almost a derby, as their coach is Swedish.)

1-1 with 7 minutes left. The game finally got a little exciting.

Poor engerland.

[Chemical Ollie]

Wooooo, Campbell hit the goal post! Then the ball entered the goal, but the whistle was blown a second before.

[Kropotkin]

Hehe, six fresh points for me.

[Gangerolf]

"but the whistle was blown a second before"

why???

[Kropotkin]

Why? Because Terry went physical with Ricardo.

[Winston]

So who'll come out on top? I say both halves of the extended time will be goal-less, then England will win the penalty shoot-out.

An Englishman brutally hand-pushed a defender to the ground, according to the re-runs

Oh I didn't notice that. Neither did the commentators. They went bananas
