    It's on TV here too, but I'm stuck at work. I had it on in the background while I was working, and was watching whenever I could steal a minute. Shame I couldn't watch this one, but the result makes me ritch:.

    Definitely check out a summary later if they show it over there! It was a phenomenal game!! ritch:

    So the Netherlands will finish first in their group and will face the number 2 from group D in the quarter finals.

    That was utterly astounding. I went across the border yesterday deep into enemy territory.

    Btw, what happens when Netherlands beat Romania and France VS. Italy ends in a draw? Penalties?

    Yep, if they tie there will be a penalty shootout.

    The last matches will be exciting because they also will be played at the same time.

    Spain - Sweden starts in about half an hour. Should be a sweet match and one of them is the next opponent of the Netherlands in the quarter finals.

    Obviously not part of the European Cup, but Iraq won a World Cup qualifier. Afterwards, 17 people were hurt in celebratory gunfire, and a suicide bomber hurt 34 people by a cafe.

    Now that's a celebration.

    Wow, Spain winning the game in the extra time by 2-1. David Villa scored again. Deserved win I guess, but it wasn't a very thrilling match.

    BTW, here is a pretty sweet summary of the Netherlands - France match of last night with English commentary for those who are interested:

    Now, if you're Netherlands, do you rest a few starters and "let Romania win", thus eliminating France and Italy? Seems like a smart strategy to me.

    Karma. These things never work out when people attempt it, it seems.

    I'm not sure if the Netherlands is going to play the next game with a "B" team. It would be bad for them to break the momentum they have now, but ofcourse they will give some players some rest. They've earned it.

    Amazing ain't it Lasse? Well done Turkey. Poor Petr Cech.

    EDIT: Germany - Austria tomorrow. Could be exciting!

    Yeah, Cech strikes me as a very sympathetic person, so I'm sorry that he's the one to set the Turkey win off.

    Holy crap what a match was that! The Czech should have brought in Milan Barros instead of another defender. Based on the 2nd half I'd say that Turkey deserved the win. They showed a lot of spirit and will to score.

    It looks like Turkey will play against Croatia in the quarter finals now, but that could still change.

    The matched for the next three days are going to rock! Germany - Austria, Italy - France, Sweden - Russia. Great stuff! :P

    wow, just watched the Turkey vs. Czech replay...I always kind of pull for Turkey because I had a roommate from there that I played soccer with, but still feel pretty sick for Czech.
