It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

"I think i was a bad person before. Before this time. I do not try to be good now but i am not bad. Perhaps if i try harder i may get a better hand dealt next time? But surely that makes it pointless? Perhaps i am good. Just good at being pointless. But that would make me bad. Bad at having a point. Ah…. I see now. I was nothing before, I am nothing now. I am bad purely because im pointless. "

Germany goes down, much like France, very bad display.
The Swiss had their chance yesterday.....Turkey's led a beautiful counterattack to start the winning goal....awesome.

holy crap
we're playing so bad I'm not convinced that it's our team, they look more like faroe islands. it's an absolute miracle that we haven't lost a goal, and that miracle is Artur Boruc.
an offside goal only deepens my shame. it's terrible to look at. it's absolutely... humilliating.

you can't honestly say that was a penalty

Not watching it. I'll check the highlights later, but generally I find the fans of the team it's given against are a littel biased in their opinions;)

last half a minute of the game, free kick for austria, there's some fighting in the pen box, he halts the kick, then when it's made he gives a penalty for arm-to-arm fighting. this doesn't happen. you don't give penalties for that. with free kicks and corners you don't even make it a foul, ever. this was sold.

Wow that was a nail-biter.
Poland should have been blown out in this game....they are lucky their Keeper showed up...though Austria just couldn't finish.
Nice PK though. Drilled it.
**EDIT**Oh and Gothos, your goal shouldn't have counted anyway. The guy was offsides.

How did we not beat that rabble? Bottling it on a major stage again. We should have been destroyed, if not for the holy goalie.

It's one of those ones that technically is a penalty, but they're never given. Besides, Poland should have got a free kick for the Austrian peroxide striker shoving their captain (I think it was him) before hand.
On the whole though, the Polish goal was definitely offside, and the Austrians dominated the first half, so a draw was fair. Two undeserved goals, some truly truly shocking austrian finishing and delivery, poor Polish play in general, and an outstanding Boruc man of the match performance. Quite an enjoyable watch in the end.

I cannot agree that we played bad in general. the first 30 minutes were a catastrophe, but the second half was pretty good actually, lacked a finishing touch though.
also, a referee mistake is one thing, these things happen and have happened a few times already on this Euro, but deliberately forging a goal is a completely different one.

Just seen the highlights, and I agree, no penalty. On the other hand, I think it's a bit over the top to accuse him of fixing the game. He could have given them a penalty earlier and didn't, after all. A draw was probably a fair result from what I saw.
