Euro 2008

Lot of football left to play. If there are three certainties in life it is death, taxes and that Spain will choke in international football tournaments.

It's beyond me how a side with that much talent manage to bottle it at the end in every tournament. It has to be with the management. Luis Aragones has some idiosyncrasies, but he's getting the results of late (17-2-0 in his last 19 matches).

Greece won't be sneaking up on anyone this year.

Yes, it was.

Last weekend wasn't too good for Switzerland. Not only did they lose to Croatia (and lost Alexander Frei for the remainder of the tournament), but Roger Federer was annihilated by Rafael Nadal in the French Open final. Maybe things will look up a little this week for the Swiss.

No, it is not good for Switzerland.

Not Croatia, but Czech Republic.

 

[Tomeck]

Yes, it was.

There were 100 000 Dutchs in Switzerland to see a match against Italia, they are crazy!

Je maintiendrai.

You're right, I meant Czech Republic and not Croatia. Their kits are almost identical.
