bombTHEice Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 God shave the Queen ... :king: Rooney impressed me a lot the last couple of seasons in Everton, he is such a great player. Hopefully the UK will win the cup, I want to see revenge for the 1996 home EC ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombTHEice Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 A crazy and lucky goal from Zlatan but in the end a well deserved point for Sweden. :/) Hopefully Germany will lose today vs. Latvia ... :-^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ch_nl Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Vinne Jones once said: "Luck has nothing to do with it" Zlatans goal was not luck. It was one of the most fantasic goals ever. Stockholm is chaotic... Only a few players in the world can score such a goal. Zlatan has the talent. And if there was luck involved Sweden earned it. And by the way, Trezegeaut did take the ball with his hand. And has any of you seen wath Zidane just before he scored the penalty versus England?! Grose!

ch_nl Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 I don't know what yo say about Totti. He spitts Poulsen in the face and get suspended for three games. He tries to break Henriksens leg and get a yellow card. What he did was not acceptable but I think UEFA could be a bit harder when players are actually trying to hurt each other.

puck7x Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Wow! What an awesome game between the Czech's and the Netherlands... The result wasnt what I wanted, but the game was full of scoring chances and ended in a 3-2 Czech win after Netherlands came out to a 2-0 lead... After the Netherlands player (Heitenger?) got red carded I knew they were going to lose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ch_nl Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Heitinga got the red card. Right. Don't know if I made myself clear, but did anyone saw that Zidane PUKED all over when he was about to take the penalty on England. Netherlands - Czech Republic is the best game so far. Scoring chances in both directions. Nedved is great. Catenaccio loses again. Italy, Netherlands, Spain and France have all done it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habs77 Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Yeah.. now that was an entertaining soccer match. I know the football purists will have been tearing their hair out at the defensive miscues... but for the casual fan this was the perfect game. I have to say, that 2nd Netherlands goal should have been an off-side... I know the offside player wasn't initially part of the play so they let it go, but then him being offside is what allowed him to be wide open to finish the play off. It's either a bad call, or the rule is flawed. Great strike by Nedved that struck the crossbar from far out, and tremedous save by the NED keeper from point blank range at one point. Both sides were really threatening all game long, but I though the Czechs deserved the win. They should have been up 2-0 in the first 5 minutes, they really choked on both occasions.

bombTHEice Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 @ch_nl: The goal from Zlatan was great but also pure luck ... but as I said they really deserved that point. What a game yesterday ... they Czech Republic came back from an early 2-0 deficit and WHAT a great goal by the Ostrava-Maradonna, Milan Baros. Such a cool goal, woohoo.

ch_nl Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 habsfannr1: The one thing that was luck was that Vieri didn't clear the ball. Two players in the history can be that cool. Marco Van Basten and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. We have seen him do those crazy things in practice and that's his way to play soccer. And it wasn't luck.

Leafs Suck Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 Czech-Holland game was one of the best matchs I've ever seen. Damn Portguesse got threw. Hopefully the English or French kick their ass back to their neutral country. Go Bulgaria! Knock the Italians out tomorrow. The whole world is cheering for you!

puck7x Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 England wins... onto round-2 for them... Rooney is one hell of a player. Btw: I'm not an England hater for anyone wondering... I just enjoyed watching them collapse to the French, I'm indifferent to both teams. That game was just hilarious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quebecois Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 Rooney is amazing yes, seemed ineffective for the first 40 minutes then comes through with an amazing shot at the end of the first half and adds another in the second. He could lead the tourney in scoring at age 18! England will have a tough test with Portugal now in the quarters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jl.roberts Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 England - Portugal will be a hell of a game and, well, the French are lucky to have Greece if you ask me. The tournament's shaping up to be a good one, especially if Italy doesn't go through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombTHEice Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Rooney played another great game. First the great header to Scholes for the first goal, then the cool shot from outside the box and finally he finished a nice counter attack. :/) The Three Lions will win it!

Leafs Suck Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Portugal is overated, just like the Italians. I'd much rather play them then Greece, who will be this tourny's South Korea. Since Sven Eriksson took over as coach, England has only lost two games. Both to the top two teams in the world so I don't think they're overly worried about the 22nd ranked team.

Quebecois Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Plus England will not have to deal with the home crowd portugese fans as much as other teams, as they have the most and loudest fans of any ive seen in the tourney. Does anyone think there was actually a conspiracy? I don't but it is rather coincidental that the score was predicted at 2-2 and the final goal could have been played better by the goalkeeper. One thing that goes against it is the chances the Danes had in the final few minutes, i don't think they would have made it that close if there was a conspiracy.

ch_nl Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Come on. Think again Qubecois. It was the Danes and the Swedes. The most uncorrupted nations in the world. The game was close, and 2-2 was a fair result. But I bet that Italian media will tell you that it was. But really. Everyone that saw the game knows that it was fair play.

Quebecois Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Hey i agree completely, read my post again. I was just wondering if anyone out there though that there actually was a fix. I think an argument could be presented that there was, but i don't believe there was in anyway a conspiracy to eliminate Italy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafs Suck Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 A conspiracy in football? Only the Italians would make it up. Seriously they lost fair and sqaure. They do not deserve to move on. Their is no conspiracy. Just an bunch of sore losers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
