UEFA-EURO 2012
-
Good start for England.
Impressive first 30 minutes. Better than anyone dared imagine.
-
Ten minutes later France equalized
-
Knew it was too good to be true. I think England will do well to get out of the group tbh.
-
England have got to be happy with that.
-
I'd say a fair result for both teams, seemed very balanced, nice to see new young blood for England playing well.
-
Could have been worse
England played no worse that many of the other teams, and better than some others [so far]... -
The French looked more 'stylish' the the English were more 'solid' looking. Fair result though
-
What about the Ukraine? dang!! they had lots to cheer about, looks like the homefield advantage might work in their favor, especially coming from behind to force a win.
Best wishes to Greece tomorrow, if any team/country in Europe needs some positive news it's them.
-
What a goal by Poland's Jakub Błaszczykowski!
-
Yeah, wow! hear the crowd wake up and roar.

My favourite goal of the tournament so far.
Apparently, when he was just 11, Błaszczykowski witnessed his father stab his mother to death, now he's captain of his country.
-
I'm starting to think the introduction of extra teams this tournament (previously only 16) has had an impact on the football. Teams know it's a longer competition and the pace of the games are somewhat reserved.
It's like the world cup. It won't start until the knockouts.
-
GREAT GOOOOAAAAAAAAALL!!!!!
Breakfast, coffee and the Euro's what a way to start the day.
-
There's only 16 now, 8 teams up until '92, 24 next time though!

Was it extra teams in the qualies? Either way, I should've payed more attention.
If we were the only team in it I imagine we'd still lose

Yep. It was really nice.
It is uplifting to see our team in a good condition. I was afraid that it will be extremely hard to get a good result in the match with Russia. It wasn't that bad. We have to face Czech team and win, to get out from the group. -
The German squad have a lott of fans, but the German prime minister Angela Merkel is a proud fan off the Netherlands.
She was dressed in orange in a meeting.
I predict a 3-1 win for the Netherlands against Germany. Goals scored by Huntelaar, Sneijder and van Persie.
The other game Denmark-Portugal 1-1

That's quite a prediction, I am a little concerned, I hope for a 2:1 Germany win however I believe it will be a draw.
-
Good call on the score. The Germans look organised and powerful.
-
Phew!, great game, glad we got the win. We are through, the Netherlands need to beat Portugal by 2 and the germans need to beat Denmark.
