Yeah, I'm changing my team after the game... but hm...

*thinks*

I'm definitely going to spread them out. I'm not counting Greece out at ALL regardless of their opponent, and at least I already have one or two Greeks.

Looks like Beckham has been watching one too many Jonny Wilkinson videos

and oh. my. god. XD

I went to get some food around the start of second half, thinking nothing special will happen. I come back, and the Czechs get 3 goals XD and its not even finished =S

EDIT: Seeing Baros play.. think i'll sub Van Nistlerooy for him =]

I'm surprised I haven't posted in this thread...

Anyway, the game ended a while ago, Czech Republic had an easy win over Denmark (3 -1)

Okay, as a non sports fanatic I thought that most of the famous teams would go to the finals, like France, England and ofcourse Sweden
But ... Portugal, Czech Rep, Greece and Holland? No way...

3-0 actually. Denmark couldn't even get one on the board. They held the Czechs in check for 45 minutes and then... *cue opening of floodgates*

Baros is awesome.

I'm pretty annoyed at the coverage of it in my area. There are 2 channels that have it, FOX Sports net, which I don't get, and some spanish sports package, effectively cutting me off

Toxic - The only way to go in the States is to buy games on PPV - either by themselves or as part of a $179 package.

All other games shown on TV (with the exception of some of the earlier group stage matches) are tape-delayed.

Kids on my soccer team watch it via FOX and the Spanish thing.

I wouldn't really care if it was delayed, as long as it was like the same day.

You'd like that, wouldn't you?

I think at this stage you're looking at a minimum 3 day delay between live/taped matches. No idea why but I guess it's the best deal FOX could get.

Well, not like it matters, I don't get either channels, and won't shell out 179 for that.

Portugal go THROUGH.

Portugal 2
Ronaldo 25', Maniche 57'
Netherlands 1
Jorge Andrade 63' (OG)

Portugal were the better side for the first half, slightly worse in the second half. The whole team were a contrast to their first game against Greece - speaking of which, we could have a nice repeat in the final

Predictions for the rest of Euro 2004

Czech Rep. 3 Greece 1

I think Czech will have a fine, easy win against Greece. At least Greece will have a consolation goal

FINAL: Portugal 2 Czech Rep. 2, Portugal to win 6-5 on penalties.

A bit late to be making predictions, but...

Well, my opening bracket is now screwed up. I got the Portugal vs. The Netherlands semi-final match-up correct, but guessed the wrong winner. France vs. Germany was a mistake.

Now, as for today's match. Maniche... Best.shot.ever? The funny thing was that the goal came so quickly, they were still doing the replay on the thing that led to the corner when he suddenly scored. I've seen goals come during replays in handball-matches before, but never in a football-match!

Bit late with my recaps but I have Portugal and the Czechs locked in as my finalists. I already predicted a Portugal win before today (But I was thinking 1-0) and I'll go 2-1 Czechs.

SomerZ: It ALMOST happened in WC98. Croatia scored against France in their SF, they showed the replay... and come back 2 seconds before the first French goal.

Good job by both teams in the first half. I still think The Czech Rep. will pull through as the winner, but the match is still very open.

No Nedved though...

I think he hyperextended his knee. Even if the Czechs win... will he be fit?

And the favourites are out at the last minute, of the first half of extra time, by a Greek goal.

The tournament will end the way it started; will it be a repeat?
