Now will Greece change their attitude for the next game?

Definitely not. With their current tactic they were able to hold back Sweden to only two goals. That's something to build on.


If you where sarcastic please ignore, but...

Greece has lost now, versus three points both Spain and Sweden recieved. IMHO Spain plays even better then the Swedisch so I doubt that with the current playing style of the Greeks the Spanish could have problems during a next match-up.

I'm pretty confident now Greece loses to Spain and when that happens they can at most get 3 points by beating out Russia (while I find a tie against them more likely.) Greece will not even see the knock-out rounds.

The only time when Rol isn't being sarcastic is when he's pretending to be sarcastic.

After seeing all teams play, my predictions for the quarter-finals are:

Portugal - Poland (Portugal will win)

Germany - Czech Republic (Germany will win)

Netherlands - Sweden (Netherlands will win)

Spain - Italy (Close one... But Italy will win)



I hope Chrizum is right ( Italy could not pass the turn :-| I'm pessimist)

Good predictions, but Poland will not qualify. Croatia is a much stronger team.

Also I think it's 50-50 between France and Italy. Actually i believe Italy will screw this up, and France will be in the quarter finals.



Just read some interesting.

Euro 2000. The first match of France.

Holland VS France 3-2.....

Euro 2004 First match of Greece

Russia VS Greece 1-0

The last two EC winners lost their first match....

So roll is right Austria will win EC.

I actually prredicted Croatia to go to the quarter-finals, but I changed it in the last second. Why? Because Poland has the spirit, and Croatia lacks any spirit. I think it could make the difference.



Awesome goal by Zlatan today and a pleasant win for a Swede like me.

I'm so happy right now :D



Too much hate towards Greece in here... :(
