Euro 2008 game thread

The best bit of commentary of the tournament so far:

Ribery chased by Rats

Got to be the name of the tournament that hasnt it?? !!  FFS fancy having a name like that - RAT !! 

France 0-0 Romania

I thought Romania played well, they were looking for their one chance from defending like dogs, but it never came. And after that performance noone on planet earth can tell Ribbery is worth 20 mill no frekin way dudes.. France were awful and didnt press the ball once in that game, but having said that they seem to start every tournament totally sh*t then go on to the final or F***ing win it..

mm, watching netherlands vs italy now, hoping it will be a better game!

2-0 netherlands with 30 minutes gone, this is more like it!

What a good assist by Kuyt (2-0). Keep it up.

Yeah that should boost his confidence,

not important but hollands defensive mid is absolutely massive.

Brilliant football by the dutch Italians cant cope with it, some great work by Dirk too, first goal was offside though so why the long face Ruud

 

That second goal was absoloutely beautiful!

Brilliant football by the dutch Italians cant cope with it, some great work by Dirk too, first goal was offside though so why the long face Ruud

 

Why the long face!  I haven't said that about him for ages!

Kirk Doubt's having a decent game isn't he! Good on him. Looks like playing down the right for us is a benefit for them. Can't believe how ropey the Italians have been at the back. Defo should only be one nil though.

Babel would be having a field day down the left tonight the italians seem so slow

Dirk kuyt wooooooooooooow hooooooooooooooo is having a great game

3-0 holland. great ball in by kuyt.

what a ball, probably should have scored himself though. Great game for the lad

Made up Dirky's having a good game, lovely chip in there by him to set that up !!  Oh well, there goes my prediction 

Kuyt should have scored there, but brilliant ball in for the goal. Two assists.

How poor have Italy been?

kuyt can be extremely proud of his performance.

Best game of the tournament so far then? Been some nice football in this game. Thought it would have been a bit more even though.

Easily best game mate.
And definately the best team so far by a mile, the Dutch.

I just love the way they make football so simple.

Kuyt can be a very proud man tonight, ran his heart out again, always made himself available and set 2 goals up.
Yes he should of scored, but he regained composure and crossed in a peach of a ball.

I just wonder how many people would be interested in Kuyt, after tonights performance, if we hadn't of signed him already ?

Made up for Dirk tonight worked tirelessly again . Looks like thats his role now for the Dutch team , Made a fantastic Tackle in the first half. In his interview looks like he took a smack in the eye aswell .

Will be made up though if all our players perform like him

Why on earth wasn't De Rossi playing for the Italians. In studio people I am watching one said "I think playing 3 AC Milan mid-fielders should be a advantage because they know each other", the other guy said "Have you seen where they finish this season?"

The Italian manager got his tactics wrong though he made some nice subs but it was too late.

As for the Dutch they look very good though I think their defenders are not of the top quality. Horseface, Sjinder, Van Der Vaart and Kuyt worked very well with each other and their movement was great. Best game so far

Kuyt filled in great for Robben and hope he plays vs the French

Kuyt plays for Liverpool you know.........

Just reminding everyone so some of you whining bastads dont forget it, he works his bollox off for the cause.. and had assits in all the goals great performance by Dirk well done mate we are all proud of you.

that's what kuyt's made of. brilliant!

Yes he should of scored, but he regained composure and crossed in a peach of a ball.

Yeah, good point mate. I think a Kuyt of last mid season Liverpool would never had regained the composure there. Very pleased for him. He's improving on that right side all the time and it showed tonight. I hope he continues on tonights form for the rest of the tournament. Let's hope he gets a few goals in the next game!
