I have a good feeling about Turkey. That team never gives up, they're going to make strides this year. I doubt they'll win but you never know.

I'm really pissed that the band of divers in Italy got to make it through. We have a big Italian community here in Montreal (including a top sports ratio host) and they're all going nuts like it was destiny or something...

they conveniently neglect to mention that France was playing with a man down and a few key injuries the whole game, not to mention that the both red card and penalty kick which led to the victory were marginal at best. Not to mention that Henry almost scored several times. They're talking of it like it was a walk in the park when reality they barely beat a French that didn't even really want to win.

I can't wait for them to get destroyed.

Holland will win it i have no doubt about it

As for the Russia Sweden Match its wasnt a bad match and I'm not really surprised Russia won the played well and Arshavin played Great he looks a good player i saw him in UEFA Cup and he looked a good player too i would mind Liverpool bidding for him

And Also Spain have beat Greece 2-1

So the Quater Finals looks like this

Porutgal vs Germany
Croatia vs Turkey
Spain vs Italy
Holland vs Russia

Some good matches in there im looking forward to all them should be good

Well here in Australia (when i checked yesterday) Croatia were $8.50. That sounds reasonable but i would rather bet small on a small team and possibly win bigger money. Holland are favourties in Australia and probably around the world.

Porutgal vs Germany
Croatia vs Turkey
Spain vs Italy
Holland vs Russia

The only games I'm going to watch although, Croatia vs Turkey promises to be possibly very interesting while Holland will squash Russia. I've got Portugal vs. Croatia in one Semi, Italy vs. Holland in the other.

Mr Kenny! · « **Reply #20 on:** 19 June 2008, 05:36:23 PM »

I think the Semi's will be

Portugal v Croatia
Spain v Holland

And then a Croatia Holland final with Holland running out winners

Those are basically the four teams I'm rooting for so I hope you're right. Although as I said I have a feeling Turkey will surprise people.

Oh well that's Portugal out lol. I'm highly optimistic for Sunday and i've worked out that ITALIA can be the "Streak Killers". They can end Spain's winning streak in Quarters, end Holland's winning streak in Semis, and then end Croatia's winning streak in the final. IT'S INEVITABLE!

Mr Kenny! · « **Reply #23 on:** 20 June 2008, 02:46:15 PM »

Holland will win

Italy wont get past Spain

As for Portugal going out im glad they did but i honestly thought they would be beat Germany but i still think Croatia will go through tonight and then beat Germany in the Semi's

The Turks do it again. I would hate to be a Croatia supporter right now. Good finish to the match, although the match in his entirety wasn't all that good.

King Kenny · « **Reply #25 on:** 21 June 2008, 04:43:22 AM »

Holland to win, and Spain to Also win.

Spain vs Holland

They've just earned the right to get beaten by Germany. But still, semis for a country such as Turkey is ah-mazing. happy for them even though I'm not a big fan. But with all the injuries/suspensions they hae, Germany's going to the finals, plain and simple.

Mr Kenny! · « **Reply #27 on:** 21 June 2008, 12:24:05 PM »

What a crap match that was until the last 3 mins of Extra Time it was one of the worst matches Ive ever seen well done to the Turks to come back again this time with the last kick of the match

I still think Holland will win know I'm going to say Turkey will beat Germany and it will be a Turkey Holland final

I dont know what it is about Turkey but after the last two matches it will be a hard match for Germany

What? Holland lost. After beating teams like France and Italy and then lose against Russia.

Pala! · « **Reply #29 on:** 21 June 2008, 10:48:40 PM »

Another day, another shocker. I didn't expect Russia to beat Holland. I expected Holland to go all the way and win the tournament.
