Well, what can I say. We were fucking terrible in the opening half-hour against Russia, they completely dominated and took two chances and it could have been 3-0 and elimination by the opening half hour. Luckily for us, they didn't capitalise any more and then we started looking a bit better. Still, very tense final few minutes as Russia went forward and nearly scored a third goal.

Fucking glad we got through, it's been a great effort by Greece to get this far. If we get eliminated next game which looks to be against France (and highly unlikely we'll win) I'll be happy. Hopefully France loses and the Poms beat Croatia cos I want to play off against the Poms but I highly doubt that will happen. Then again, I didn't think Russia would kick our arses like they did today so anything can happen.

I'm glad to see Portugal through, it would have been a shame for the host nation to go out at the first round.

Spain well, they just didn't show enough to me of what I've seen of them. They remind me of England. People make them out to be better than they are for some reason. Must be because they have a strong domestic league or something

Just need England to get a result and then my two picks are still alive. Choke on that Dazz :foc:

I know, France are no way near as good as they were.
Most of there best players are getting old, especially there defence and this was shown in the Croatia match.
Desailly really is a weak link.

Trezeguet and Henry just don't complement each other, I've noticed.

Trez just takes up too much of Henry's room.

What did he do to breach it?

Also, Senegal could probably be a good team really. Half of the French team is Senegalese as a second nationality.

One of the fun things about this game is that seemingly everyone on my estate is watching it on Sky Digital except for me. Its quite funny to say "what a goal" for Rooney's finish, put the tv on mute, and hear everyone shout "ROONEY" "YES" "GOAL" "WOOOOO" etc....

Croatia look fairly shocking, although I doubt they'll play like that in the second half. Sol Campbell, Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard have been fantastic.

By the way, let's not get too confident...

Euro 2000: England need only a draw against highly fancied Eastern European opposition.

Euro 2004: England need only a draw against highly fancied Eastern European opposition.

Euro 2000: England go down to early goal before scoring two goals late in the first half to take the lead.

Euro 2004: England go down to early goal before scoring two goals late in the first half to take the lead.

Euro 2000: England bodge it in the second half.

1-1 with the France/Swiss game. Alright game thus far. France dominated the first 20 minuts, but after the Swiss scored, France looked like sh**. A nice chance for Henry wit a header, but he shot it wide of the goal. Zidane has a goal for the French.

Owen isn't playing too well but he contributed to both the goals.
Some of the balls played to him haven't been to good.
But at the moment I don't care because we're winning.

Wow, the Brummies were all sitting on the steps of their local police station watching the match on a Sony Trinatron. Even Manchester got a big screen...

That was centenary square And I'm thinking it was pretty empty cause there was trouble after the France game and they banned sales of alcohol there.

Scotland can fuck off I keep an eye out for any Wolves players when they make appearances but that's it. I semi-support Ireland since I'm half-Irish, that's about as far as I go. I just find it hilarious how unbelievably bitter some Scots (nobody here, mind) get about England (esp when we haven't particularly done anything much worth getting bitter about) - all I ever hear is "You lot never shut up about 1966" - I don't know *anyone* who reverts to using 1966 in an argument unless they're either dumb or desperate, so fuck off on that count. Having said that, the old "we only have 5 million or so population" excuse is out the window thanks to Latvia eh?

Is it me or did John Terry look nervous for a lot of tonight's game? Sort it out lad.

Ashley Cole still can't defend (thank you)...I'm surprised Croatia didn't just go for it and hit a ton of crosses towards Mornar, he would've done Cole every time in the air.

Beckham played better but still didn't do a hell of a lot. About 15-20 minutes in the 2nd half he got within 10 yards of the Croatian penalty area, which was about the first time bar free kicks he had advanced that far up the pitch with the ball.

Owen seems to have lost his touch (literally) but to be honest you can't leave him out. Scholes went for 3 friggin years, and look what the goal did for him, he actually looked vaguely like his club form afterwards. Same with Shearer back before Euro 96, everyone knew he was capable but he hit a barren spell. Then he banged them in. Owen is a bigger goal threat than Heskey or Vassell, even if he's not on top form, so he's got to play.

Gerrard was the man for most of the game. I lost count of the number of times he broke up the Croatian possession or ended up out on the wings covering.

Michael Oakes needs to be called up asap.

That is all.

It's not just Ashley Cole, both full backs, Gary Neville is a fucking pussy, time after time I see him not jumping for headers, or turning away when theres a shot because he is scared, he did it in the second half and it nearly lead to a Croatia goal, the ball just went wide, and he did it against either Japan or Iceland when they scored.

Terry played well, as did Campbell, hardly did anything wrong. Beckham played no different to usual, which reminded me off why I always said he is overrated.

Gerrard was shit attacking, seriously unbelievably shit with his balls, him and Beckham were rubbish throughout.

James is a liability, and the sooner Robinson is in goal the better.

Not one fucking mention of Frank Lampard, you lot discust me , not only was it a great goal but it put us through, settled our nerves and everything. I would rate it as good as Rooney's second goal, although Rooney's was a better strike, Lampard's was his weaker foot and he turned the defender first.

I knew Paul Scholes was going to score... I had a £2 bet at 75/1 that Scholes would score first and it would be 1-1, and a £2 bet that Scholes would score first. My mate said to me about how Scholes hadn't scored for 3 years, and I'll say now what I said then "He's gunna score eventually and records are their to be broken" (not a record but that was the most relevant phrase I could think of)

Still don't fancy our chances against Portugal.
