Euro 2012 Discussion

Russia giving a good account of themselves early on.

And what's with the chairs the ITV team are using Trent? :

Yeah I noticed them chairs, Robbie Savage said it was like sitting on shreddies :

Ok, seriously, it was a great upset and all, but how the hell did the officials let Denmark get away with three handballs?

 

[Lover Boy]

I only noticed two penalty claims. The one by Poulsen was accidental imo as it just caught his arm as he was running. The other one should have been a penalty though.

 

[Postman Dave]

missed both of today's games but a cracking start for group underdogs Denmark!

 

[Lover Boy]

Have you betted on todays games Fuji? I think that Spain and Croatia will win.

 

[Postman Dave]

supporting the Irish today as I automatically back the home nations. Italy/Spain should be a great game too.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Based on the current odds, a parlay of two draws produces odds of just under 10/1. Given that I can actually see both of these games ending like that, I think I'm going to bet it.

 

[Lover Boy]

Italy have been the better side so far, I've been fairly impressed with the way they have approached the match. I think it's a bit stupid for Spain to be playing without a striker.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Bam, called that draw, now lets see if I can go two for two today and make another $100.

 

[Lover Boy]

Fuji is an expert better. But Now I cannot see this one ending up a draw unless Ireland pull something magic out of the hat.

No, there's no way this one's going to a draw, Croatia is just a much better team.

 

[Postman Dave]

Not a lot to complain about tbh.

We were very solid, still need to improve on keeping possession as we lost it too many times in our own half though. Still, can't really pinpoint any bad individual performances, Ox looked great, Lescott was exceptional, our defence as a whole played very well. If France had trouble penetrating us then I have confidence we should be able to keep Ukraine & Sweden out too.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Holy shit, Sheva's on fire!!

 

[Lover Boy]

I thought we were outstanding defensively tonight. I am a huge Glen Johnson critic but I thought his performance was one of the highest order. Our defensive was magnificent. I'm happy with a draw.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Glad Ukraine held on to win that one, things got pretty hot in the second half.
