The new "other" football thread

[red]

Time to get this topic from under the dust with the European Championship approaching. Is anyone (besides Red) going to follow this?

Red, did you see the last match of the Premier League where Man City played for the title? That was one of the craziest finishes I've ever seen. Gotta love the joga bonito!

A fun fact; with Kompany being elected as best player in the Premier League, that leaves tiny Belgium having the best player in England, Holland (Vertonghen), Greece (Mirallas) & France (Hazard).

i watched the first half, then i had to go to brunch with mom for mothers day and missed all the fun. i was shocked when i read about how the game finished. kicking myself for missing that one.

I played soccer for something like 10 years. I just don't understand how people who aren't playing can watch it.

You people obviously have something seriously wrong with you.

Soccer is the anti-hockey.

Ibra last night. Could watch that thing for hours. Just an incredible display of skill & athleticism.

How in the fuck did England get as far as they did? Ugly game against Italy.

Did you hear about the Greek boy who left home, because he didn't like the way he was being reared??

Was he staying with the Sandusky's perhaps?

Stuff like this can happen when in the first round you are in a group with an organizing country. Glad they're out.

Only quality left now: Portugal-Spain & Germany-Italy. Should be great games...

Italy should have won that game 4 - 5 to nil. They totally dominated except for the score board. There were 2 or 3 shots off the wood plus so many other opportunities for the WOPS. Not having watched England much I was just surprised to see the big gaps in talent between the two teams.

Looking forward to the remaining games and would love to see Portugal and Germany in the final. Germany because of my ancestary and many German friends....Portugal because I know a shitload of Espanya band wagon fans and want to see them cry.

Portugal-Spain was a terrible game, but Italy-Germany made more than up for that. What a game, what a second goal by Balotelli; top class finishing. The "non-celebration" afterwards was hilarious.
