Euro 2012

[Aradhus]

I was busy and missed the game. Nil-nil draw, sounds like a corker. Oh well..

Bad luck England.

i don't understand why so many of you wrote italy off in this competition ?
especially tonight, playing an england team that didn't show anything on the pitch so far (and still didn't tonight...), and that went through a very poor group in the first round (and i'm french).
They got quality players all other the pitch, even 1st class players that performed very well so far in this tournament (lets say pirlo and buffon to be original). and experienced ones too (some of them are world champions, 2006 is not that far away). Let's face it, english player are good, but are and always have been over estimated.
Anyway, tonight's results is for me well deserved, and i maintain my predictions, italy to win it.

Simple answer is the most recent world cup.

Granted thats not a very good reason, but a reason nonetheless.

[Sniper08]

Someone needs to overlay Pirlos faces with a troll face in that vid.

i admit that could be a good reason.

Pirlo's penalty yesterday changed the momentum of the shootout! That move and his facial expression afterwards was was the best thing in that game! And it was a pretty good game. At least the first 60 minutes .

[Pirlo]

why thank you

[Sniper08]

man , UEFA is clapping down hard on every vid on youtube about pirlo's penalty, i dont get why they wouldnt want ppl to see it.

why thank you

dude give it a rest it was funny at first but now its just sad

[Pirlo]

man , UEFA is clapping down hard on every vid on youtube about pirlo's penalty, i dont get why they wouldnt want ppl to see it.

because we have to pay?

sad but true: UEFA charged 10k-20k euros for racism, and charged 100k for exposing a pants with a trademark!

[DiM]

the coolest penalty you'll ever see

yeah it was cool but certainly not the coolest.

if anything panenka's has to be cooler than pirlo's for the sheer fact that he invented this style:

[Pirlo]

They probably don't look well under foreign languages? Not sure!

[maxfaraday]

100 euros on Spain against Portugal.
Don't get me wrong, I do think that Ronaldo is a fucking good player.
But I don't think it will be enough against the Spanish Armada.

[Pirlo]

I'd put my money on Spain too

[JBlombier]

I'm really looking forward to the upcoming match. It should be a good one. Hopefully with a lot of action, skills, fair play and goals. This match has so much potential, perhaps even more than Spain-Germany, which I believe to be the final. We'll see how Ronaldo performs without his Argentinian arch-nemesis loking down on him, I hope it'll be awesome.

[AndyDufresne]

Hm, I don't think I'd really like to see any of the remaining teams win, so maybe I'll coin flip to see who I'll cheer for.

Ramos' yellow was a terrible call, and I have no idea what Coentrao did to deserve his: probably something terrible.

[Sniper08]

have portugal finally figured out a system to beat spain. they are absolutly outplaying spain forcing them to play portugals game not letting them pass it.

spain took out their only forward and replaced him with another midfielder. i think they're gonna try harder to force a tiki taka style.

[Gypsys Kiss]

one shot on target in the whole 90 minutes............England managed that in the first 10 minutes!

[Sniper08]

its penalties , prediction spain win as casillas is a great keeper

[Pirlo]

f*ck YEAH! VIVA LA ROJA

[Gypsys Kiss]

Hahahahaha.......the glory boy didnt even get to take a penalty.

[Sniper08]

Hahahahaha.......the glory boy didnt even get to take a penalty.

he sucks at penalties , he always missed when he took them for united

Maybe, but you just know he wanted to be the one to score the winning penalty. If he had been playing for the team he'd have taken one of the first two.
