Euro 2012

haha brilliant!

Germany 'owns' have of Europe anyways! How long before the best players from all the other countries make the step up to the main team?!   

Georgios Samaras consistently gives me hope that I could still one day make it as a professional footballer.

Now for the tournaments "dark horses" for me, The Russians

Samaras has always been overhyped, even in the Dutch league he wasn't great.

i havent seen you play so i cant comment on that but i have seen samaras playing for celtic and he is a good player. Not good enough for us maybe but he is a good player even tho he had a shitty game.

He has a lot of shitty games. Very inconsistent player.

Cracking game, shame there weren't more goals. Ref was pretty crap though.

In that case you must have caught his good moments playing for Celtic, while I caught his absolutely atrocious moments. 

I genuinely don't think Ive seen another player resemble a donkey as much as him, his passing is diabolical, his decision making is laughable at best and his goal scoring while playing for arguably the best team in Scotland leaves much to behold. The fact he could only muster 6 goals over the course of this season says enough for me.

He makes our Andy look like a footballing God in my honest opinion, but then again, thats what it is, a game of opinions!

My thoughts too. Poland have got to rue those missed chances in the first half. Should have really put the game away.

Russia 2-0 up.

Oh well Czech's are going to get mullered.

Defence is F***ing crap too!

Combination of Czech defending being very poor and Russia doing brilliantly on the counter.

I am not gonna lie and say i watch scottish PL reguarly, cuz i dont . But i have seen him playing few times and he was ok. Or you said, i could have watched him at his best.

Russia play some good attacking football.

He got 15 assists though.

But you are probably correct. He looks very shitty kind of player without any control of the ball

An incredible open game between the Russians and Checzks. Great for neutral spectator.

See Milan still has not yet fathomed out the offside rule.I wonder how many times he has been pulled up for that.

How much do the Euros pi*s on the world cup. Far better competition

7 - Kerzhakov is the first ever player to have 7 shots off target in a single game at the Euros (1980-2012). Wideboy

Russia 3-1 Czech Rebuplic.

The Russians playing some really nice football.

What a beauty by Pavlyuchenko.

Russia should get to semi finals no problem. Class in every part of their team.

Very good footballing team. They have so much ability on the ball.

Tomorrow is going to be interesting.

Netherlands v Denmarnk and Portugal v Germany.

Hmm I'm not sure about getting to the semis. They'd have to beat Germany/Netherlands/Portugal/Denmark. Would be very tough, but I think Russia could be a dark horse here if they play like that.
