EURO 2012 Official Thread

Russia will either blow up and score like 4 goals or they will suck major ass. They're the most bipolar national team in the world.

[Ivan The Awesome]

That goal had more to do with luck than skill.

[Ja Rhule]

I guess russians decided to show up today. They very pacy and technical team.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Czechs are getting a lot of no calls.

Russians had a penalty denied. The rest were makeup calls for that.

I'm rooting for England and Germany. England is managed by Roy Hodgson whom I loved during his Fulham days. My ancestors are German and my father works for a German company so I support them as well. Spain have to be the favorites. The Dutch will also play well.

Michael Ballack is more entertaining on the pitch than the tv set.

The Croats had an epic run through the World Cup in 98 I believe. The great thing about the Euros is everyone can play. It's so difficult to qualify in the most talented footballing continent.

Germany Vs. Portugal is the game I'm most excited for.

I think Germany will take it this year, so much young talent.

[DirtyMagic97]

Well, that game changed quickly.

I have an odd observation. The Russian name plates are in the Latin Alphabet rather than the Cyrillic. I would be a little upset if the Americans wore Chinese name plates. Should the Russians not feel the same?

Great opening to Euro 2012... already better than the last world cup :P

[Panthers128]

Russia was entertaining to watch. The less European teams play tomorrow. Will be interesting seeing Ronaldo and Pepe play against their Real Madrid teammates Ozil and Khedira when Portugal loses by five goals to Germany tomorrow.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Deutschland uber alles.

[Ja Rhule]

Recap from Russia vs Czech game.... I've never seen Czech lose so bad...

[Ivan The Awesome]

This is definitely not the Czech team I was expecting.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

What are your predictions for tomorrow's matches?

I got Germany 3-0 over Portugal,

and the Netherlands over Denmark 2-1 in a hard fought match.
