I think they can and will up the tempo significantly now, and they can keep it up for the rest of the game. I have no idea which team will power on first though, but the game so far makes me think it will be Spain.

However I still hope for victory for our Slavic comrades *whistles*

bah there was no play from Russia. I kinda expected some of them to just roll over and die of exhaustion in this second half, seems like if they just finished pulling a train from Vladivostok to Sankt Petersburg. there wasn't even any contest.

however, looking at this match, I don't predict Spain faring good against Germany. they won't be able to outstamina the Germans.
Russia is growing to quite a force in the footie world though.
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 don't think there will be a match for place 3. Arent's the Turks home already?

Spain won't be easy for us.

If the Germans play against Spain like they did against the Turks they will get creamed !!!!!

I missed the match, but yet again it seems the team I was supporting lost. This has happened in every single freaking game in this competition, to my knowledge! It's weird. I think I will support Germany in the final, just so they lose. :D

There is no 3rd place match at the Euros, not since the 70s I think. They had to abandon unecessary matches in Europe because there wasn't enough money left over to turn the floodlights on after we'd finished subbing the French under the common agricultural policy.

England dont need help off anyone to lose, they accomplish that by sheer virtue of being utter poo.

Ohne England fahr'n wir zur EM .... :p

Nay, we didn't sing that, but we did when the Dutch missed the qualification for the World Championship some years ago (Ohne Holland fahr'n wir zur WM). Then Germany played so bad they had to leave rather early, and I'm sure the Dutch made songs about us as well then. :mad:

Sorry to all those who want Germany to win, but I'll be supporting them too, so Spain will beat them. It's a tough choice, but Aragones is just such a twat...
