Peelyon 416 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 Its in the stars we will beat Italy to be crushed again by Germany :) if I didnt have a secret crush on Xabi Alonso I would be cheering for France ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neridae 59 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 Ahhh Xabi and he scored as well Sorry Damien but I remain a Spanish supporter this evening To be fair, I haven't really cared about Euro 2012 all that much. I am an avid football fan as well as rugby fan, but when it comes to England football team I just can't seem to get myself excited about it. +1 for us being knocked out by Germany though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redcross 60 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 Considering the state of the English game lately, we'd do very well to get the opportunity to be beaten by Germany again. If we somehow get past Italy I am very confident the Germans will give us a 90 minute lesson in how to play as a team. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Redcross 60 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) France never looked like winning unfortunately. Shame as I would love to see the Spanish team get beat once in a while.... and I wonder, just who were the last team to actually beat Spain?

Vlad 411 Report post Posted June 23, 2012 Oh well. Nothing to root for anymore. I guess I'll root for Icy Veins instead. I suggest you all do the same. I strongly suggest it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peelyon 416 Report post Posted June 24, 2012 Italy deserved to go through! England too negative in the end. Quite glad as I dont think I could have watched Germany smash us 4-0 :P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redcross 60 Report post Posted June 24, 2012 England were awful at passing / giving the ball away as usual. The flags hanging from my upstairs windows are taken down already! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damien 1,514 Report post Posted June 27, 2012 Spain - Portugal, who do you see winning this one? I'm leaning towards Portugal. The main reason is that I want to see Spain lose :P Only one team ever managed to win the Euro right after winning the World Cup and that was France. Obviously, I wish Spain wouldn't repeat this feat... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peelyon 416 Report post Posted June 27, 2012 Just watched the highlights (was raiding :P) Didnt seem to be many chances from what I saw, but Spain seemed to have the best efforts, another penalty shoot out and some more awful penalties (at least it is isnt just England)! Im going for a Germany - Spain final. Germany to win 2-1! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vlad 411 Report post Posted June 28, 2012 I really think Italy has what it takes to beat Spain, but they need to be on top of their game. And I hope whatever happened to Balotelli isn't serious :P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peelyon 416 Report post Posted June 28, 2012 (edited) Not gonna happen. Raided again tonight, just about to watch the highlights! Edit: Super Mario by the looks. Awesome player when he is on form! That second goal was a BEAST! 2-1 to Italy then :P Ill be supporting Italy I think, got one Italian guildy and no Spaniards so might as well!

Redcross 60 Report post Posted July 1, 2012 They just need 4 goals in the last 3 minutes of stoppage time to force some extra time... Don't think it's going to happen though! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadMonk 154 Report post Posted July 1, 2012 Second half was a bit boring, but great play by Spain (loved 3the goals by Torres and Torres+Mata). Definitely a deserved win! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
