Ronaldo was the top goalscorer of Real Madrid this year. Madrid finished 2nd in Spain.

Rubbish, for current form which is all what counts really Crouch is alot better, he's scoring goals while Owen is unfit, out of form and off the pace by about 5 yards, the only reason not to play Crouch is to not risk him getting banned for the last 16.

Also Italy really aren't an entertaining team whoever said they were, they play ugly boring football.

I can't believe we're at the half way point of the competition already. I counted how many goals scored in the tournament already. Can you believe there's been over 70 goals?

I know they'll choke like they always do but Spain look GOOD when they realise they have to play. Very much like England - sometimes I'd rather we go a goal down just to see the players actually play.

Yeah well lets hope England Had to that tally tonight.

Englaaaaaand!!!

Horrible second half performance by England, the defensive was horrible, taking Campbell ahead of Brown must be a joke and Sven has bottled bringing Walcott on whatsoever, Bent should have been brought in, and Beckham deserves to be dropped after that performance,let the man he was marking get away to score the 1st Sweden goal. We struggled and teams who struggle don't win Tournmaents.

Did Greece struggle on the way to winning Euro 2004? I can't remember exactly, but I also can't remember ever considering they might win the thing.

They won the opening match against the Portugal of Maniche, Deco, Figo, Ronaldo, Pauleta, Carvalho and Andrade

No, they didn't actually struggle. They played good team football throughout Euro 2004.

Owen's apparently out for five months.

Ameobi and Luque up front next season for the Toon?

Holland and Argentina played a nice match, a shame it was only 0-0.

Well.. that was certainly disappointing..

Ghana Beat USA 2-1

No worries, you'll get yours.

...and?

IMO, that was definitley not a penalty.

It wasn't indeed. A very slight push by 'Guch' Onyewu. Not worth a penalty. And that while almost killing someone during a corner is allowed.

Germany I feel has the upperhand. 1) it's their climate and areas 2) Germany is kicking ass this year! They are amazing!

Yeah but we never know do we.

It appears a riot has broken out between the English and German fans.

Turi, go home and behave yourself.

England and Ecuador
1-0 to england!!!

Our victory parade? Indeed we shall.

Fuck, Holland's out. Stupid Figo with his stupid schwalbe.

The same one you want to face Argentina in the semis, fucker?

Yes because the English are even bigger fuckers than the Portuguese, also because the Portuguese can actually play football, and because I think Portugal-Argentina will be much more interesting than Argentina- England. I mean, who wants to see Beckham miss another penalty and get another red card?

No one, and he won't. Jesus, that happened like a decade or something ago. Fucker.

Discovered a new word?

Beckham missed a penalty against Argentina in 1998. He also got a red card in that match. Beckham kicked a penalty in box F at Euro 2004. He'll do it again, mark my words.

Prophetic fucker.

Mark mine.

Which is?

"Prophetic fucker." I'd already said them.

Anyway, it should be noted that Frank Lampard is our "official" penalty taker. He's even taking all five of our penalties should we make it to a shootout.

What a horrificly officiated match between the Netherlands and Portugal. That official totally lost control and authority over everything.
