4-1 What a goal by Pavluychenko!

Poor performance from Cech tonight.

 

[Wiegert]

Poor performance from Cech tonight.

He's having a rotten night, and it could get even worse if Russia maintain possession. Their attacking has been superb.


4-1 Russia, final score.

Poor performance from Cech tonight.

Don't worry about Cech... he'll bounce back.

Good start to the tournament i think..two cracking games later!

Anyway, i had a big bet with coral..i had to correctly predict the scores of all 8 opening group games, id win £1 million if i did!, it only lasted 1 game!, i got the poland-greece score right but i put russia to win 2-1 and they won 4-1!..good job it was free to enter!

Netherlands vs Denmark just about to start, I wonder what the odds are on van Bommel getting booked?

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Forget van bommell..what about Ninja de jong!!!

Also, i wonder what the odds are on Denmark winning the whole thing like they did in '92?

 

[Wiegert]

I saw yesterday that they had the lowest odds of winning the tournament out of all the teams taking part. I didn't think they would be that low though.

Seems like Denmark want to control the pace of the game here. Trying to keep it at a slow pace. But happy to let the Netherlands play it around the middle of the field as much as they want. Very boring to watch so far.

EDIT: Denmark have scored!! 1-0!!

 

[Emptyone]

Well, Netherlands have all the possession, but Denmark have the goal. 1-0 after 24 minutes.

 

[neljack]

Quality goal against the run of play mind! 1-0 Denmark

 

[Matty]

In a way like the Barcelona v Chelsea game. Just a lot more boring.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

1-0 DENMARK!!!! Krohn-dehli 25 mins...totally against run of play, holland had a great start!

 

[Emptyone]

Seems like Paulsen (?) handled in the box whilst clearing. Extra officials missed it, as did the referee. That's two in two days, what are they there for? Dutch denied a penalty, if someone had noticed.

 

[neljack]

Robben hits the post!

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Half time then..really good game so far, denmark are playing well, but i still expect holland to win though..

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Hey, yellow card for van bommell...exactly what this game was missing!!

 

[Matty]

Two massive penalty calls for the Netherlands turned down.

1-0 Denmark fulltime.

 

[Emptyone]

Well, I didn't see that coming. 28 shots by the Dutch, and all of that for naught. Great display by Denmark, excellent defence, but the Dutch had a horror show in front of goal, and Van Persie's touch deserted him. Might be difficult for them to qualify now.

 

[dhandeh]

I didn't see that coming, well done Denmark!

 

[MUSC4EVER]

They completly deserve it denmark, they worked so well as a team..holland were full of holes in defence and were sloppy in possesion at times..theyve got there work cut out against the germans and portunalo!

 

[dhandeh]

I can't believe Postiga is only 29, he seems to have been around for ages.

 

[Matty]

Seems the fans are throwing stuff down on player already.

[QUOTE="BBC Commentators]Looks like paper cups. The Munchen players won't be used to cups. *They laugh* One in already ey?[/QUOTE]

 

[dhandeh]

This German-Portugal looks a bit of a bore fest.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

This German-Portugal looks a bit of a bore fest.

Yep, i had a feeling it would be like this at the start though..

 

[TyrrellRacing]

Clinical shot from Podolski there. Good replacement for Chamakh 👍

[PAWEL17]

It was a great piece of individual effort by Krohn-Delhi.

 

[dhandeh]

It was a great piece of individual effort by Krohn-Delhi.

Certainly was, good change of pace left the defender for dead. Then drilled it through the keepers legs.

 

[Matty]

And the Portugese hit the bar and the line, but no goal.

 

[C-ZETA]

Does That Remind You Of Anything?

Have to say, I feel kinda sorry for Pepe. He's probably the best player who's not awesome at anything. Poor guy.
