He had the chance to get a second! The cross from Müller was only inches away from him

Yes, a chance. He always has enough chances.
Chances never show in the result. Only goals.

I don't think so.
Although I have a bit of an aversion against Spanish teams (oddly enough not against individual sporters such as cyclists) I think they'll demolish Italy.

You don't think that game will be interesting? BAH!

I hope it's a great game! I think it will be.

That would be fun but realistically speaking... unlikely.

And it turned out to be a no... at least Spain didn't win.

I wanted Italy to win.

Shame they didn't, I felt they played football with more intent.

Barcelona/Spain - they really bore me! too much possession, too many passes, not enough shots and certainly not enough goals to justify it.

I hope Italy and Croatia go through. In fact, I really like Italy this year.

- Pirlo
- Buffon
- Di rossi
- Di Natale
- Balotelli

I really like those players.

 

[Alt Freak]

It's really beautiful though when they execute perfect passes and score. Their goal vs Italy was amazing to watch

yeah I loved that goal, but the Italians was equally as nice for me.

 

[Wiseblood]

Italians we're incredible defensively, and a key point, while Spain did hold possession for close to 55-60% of the game, the Italians were far more effective in hitting the net with their shots. Not many balls made it to Buffon.

Not to mention Balotelli's fucking waste of a break away there...lolly-gagin without even getting a shot off! lol

 

[Alt Freak]

Yea lots of shot opportunities for both teams but neither of them really took advantage of it and a lot of times passed it back out

 

[Nicholas666]

Im Greek soooo..Im gonna root for Greece..They arent going to win...Maybe Spain again or Germany

 

[Blokkadeleider]

Anybody seen the Polish fight for what they're worth? Now that's football!

Marin - just signed for Chelsea [he's first team]
Padolski - just signed for Arsenal [he's first team]
Ozil - plays for Real Madrid [he's first team].
Khedira - plays for Ream Madrid [first team].
Gomez - plays for B. Munich [first team].


Could go on..

None of those players are German.

Khedira and Gomez are infact German.

Netherlands manager was awful!

Robben is an utter idiot!
