Euro 2004

Well I don't know how many football fans are here (the real football!! Razz

) but here goes...

The first day we had lackluster Portugal going down down to spirited Greece 2-1 deservedly as well as Epsanol (Spain) beating the Russians 1-0. With these results, the host nation must certainly win 1 game and draw 1 of the remaining two games at the least to be able to qualify for the quarters. Not an easy task perhaps.

Today's matchup. France vs England. I only have one wish and that is to see France lose all matches (boy did I enjoy World Cup 2002 Laughing

). Also Switzerland vs Croatia.

I'm waiting for the Olympics for football. The World Cup was amazing, my dad and I would wake up at like 5am to watch games.

I've always been a little confused with the Olympics. As far as I know, only amateurs are able to participate in the games. So what’s the deal with basketball and hockey?

Well... England lost after two goals from Zidane in the added time Shocked

same here although i'm a brit i don't care much for football....i find it amusing..when england scores i hear a massive roar even with tripple glazed windows coming from the pub a few streets away its mental.

whats with watching sports anyways? i hate watching sports, the way i see it is why watch it when u can play it Confused

Wow... can't believe there are so many anti-France fans here. I myself is a France supporter though I am not french. I guess I became a France supporter because I am always a Arsenal fan (since their team is mostly french players). I do support England but sometimes I think England is way too overrated. Don't get me wrong, they are good, but against other European teams, they have to work extra hard.

I did felt sorry for England today after the match. It sucks big time to concede 2 goals at injury time.

I shall never understand why Emile Heskey gets selected into the English squad (and in Liverpool too, before he got kicked out Razz

) .
