I DO !!!

its soo awesome

the tournament is getting better with each game

today was a really good game .... i dont know if portugal deserved to win, but it was a good game

my top 2 teams now are France and Czech Republic ... im more for the Czech, they have a really strong squad this year with poborsky (sp?) and baros up front and then nedved (hes damned good) and heinz in the midfield.

did u see heinz's free kick against germany, that was one of the nicest free kicks ive seen in a while. also ballacks goal earlier on in the game was pretty nice too.

who do u want to win?

::edit:: i forgot that you are French, so i bet you want France to win.

hehe yeah I'd *like* France to win, but they're not really at the top of their game at the moement.. and you said, the chzecks have a VERY promising team this year..

Last night's game (England vs. Portugal) was sooooooooo tight! This competition has really been very very very good! Lots of surprises all along the way.

I havnt really been watching it too intently (not much time for tv right now.. or ever I suppose) but as I'm in england right now the fever is pretty intense. or WAS rather. there were many discounted t-shirts on sale today.

haha yeah I couldn' belive it! Greece won! Well done to them! I think France had maybe 2 (weak) shots on goal.. If you don't strike you don't score, it's that easy.

Portugal and the Czecks are my favorites at the moment.

It was crazy here, the night of the england portugal game. The streets were deserted for like 2 and a half hours, with occasional random shouting from pubs. I know in london there was rioting, which is pretty scary.
We didn't deserve to lose though, the linesman gave the goal! Then the referee, who was further away, decided it didn't count and played it on after it had been in the back of the goal. Thats like playing it on after it hits the linesman. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAArgh.

hey max,

can u freakin believe it ... greece is in the final ... im still shocked by that ... they scored in the last second too .... it was more of a golden goal then a silver goal .... the czech didnt even have a chance to get back at them ... wow .... i cant believe it .... wow ....

i think im gonna be after portugal now, they played really well in their semi-final and they should show greece that theyre a better team then what greece saw in the opening match
