End Of Match: Game over... Portu-Naldo wins!!!
90' (+1): Ronaldo PASSED THE BALL!!!! That's the incredible part. But I think he only passed to Quaresma because they share the same haircut!
90' (+1): Counter Attack and GOOOOAAALLLL for Portugal!!!!
90': Another chance wasted by Czech Republic and once again it was Sionko.
87': 3 minutes to go in the regular time.... Portugal is going to win this one and secure their spot in the quarter finals
86': hahahaha... Ridiculous move by Quaresma now... he lost the ball
82': WOOOOOO!!!! Sionko heads and almost perfect ball... it wasn't perfect just because the keeper tipped it out... But the Czechs are looking more dangerous now
79': Hahahahaha... Nuno Gomes just made Ronaldo the happiest child of the playground by giving the captain band
77': Plasil lifts the ball in the box and Barros jumps in front of Sionko just to miss the goal!!!
76': Simào kicks it on the was and I'm sure Ronaldo is going to cry later saying that he should be the one taking free kicks, corners, throw-ins, goal kicks...
75': Deco's on the grass... Free Kick for Portugal.
72': Jan Koller is getting ready to go in. He was brought to the Stadium straight for his Senior Citizen Center.
70': What the F#*%! How could the Czech foward miss that one!!!
67': Corner for Portugal. Pepe sends the ball to the last row of the stands
66': According to my friend Chimarea, while Ronaldo was scoring the goal , Deco was laying down on the pitch suffering from "after-butt-sex pain" hahaha
63': Gooooaaallll... for Portugal... that Ronaldo guy, took a beautiful shot from outside the box and BabyHelmet didn't even have time to see where the ball went
62': After the referee had the corner to be retaken, Plasil almost scores the second for Czech Republic
61': A corner for the Czechs
58': BabyHelmet saves Czech Republic one more time. Simão took the shot but Cech saves it
55': Big no, no... for the Czech defense almost gives Portugal the second goal...
50': Ronaldo took a dive...
49': Ronaldo lost another ball in midfield... He's not playing today
48': The Czechs almost scored. Keeper Ricardo let the ball pass and Barros didn't put it in... C'mon Czechs!!!
45': Here we go... after a deep facial and new lipstick the players are back for the second half
45' (+2): and the first half is over
45' (+2): easy for BabyHelmet
45' (+2): Fre kick for Portugal... Ronaldo took the ball ... his legs are spread ... he shoots
43': Ronaldo fell... ooooohhhh... poor Ronaldo... He'll need a make-up retouch
41': Well .. he just did... he took a shot... good one... but not enough to beat Petr BabyHelmet Cech
39': If you have a player who scored 42 goals in the season playing in the best league of the world, why don't they just give him the ball and say "here son, do something" ???
37': Scolari is freaking out on the sideline right now... He's a great coach... And he's a funny characters even though he tries to be a tough guy... hahaha
34': Balls In you face!!!! The Czech defender felt it!
30': Bosingwa (or whatever his name is) got a yellow card...
28': That's what happens Petit!!! You try to hump the Czechs and they try to chop your hand off in return!!! hahaha
26': Here come the Czechs... ohhh... did you see that? The Portuguese defender was humping the Czech guy
16': The problem with Portugal are the women. Actually this is what makes the players become metrosexuals like CristiNaldo... The portuguese ladies are definitely not famous by their looks so some of the footballers try to compensate that.... The Czech women on the other hand....
16': Cooollll ... Czech tied... the right moment to catch up the commentary!!!

The first weekend of the Euro 2008 can be summarize like this: Great Saturday, Boring Sunday.
The opening match between Switzerland and Czech Republic had tears, strategic battles - Switzerland playing offensively and Czech Rep. all the way back in defense - and an undeserved Czech goal scored by a substitute player. It was great.

Then we had Portugal vs. Turkey. A very interesting match. Portugal hit the Turkish post three times, Cristiano Ronaldo made his traditional funny/frustrated faces and defender Pepe scored his first goal with the National shirt after an excellent one-two play. Turkey has a good team but not good enough to beat one of the favourites to win the title and at 93rd minute Raul Meirelles sealed Portugal's triumph.
Then on Sunday Croatia and Austria played one very boring match. The goal scored by Croatia on a penalty kick on the 5th minute set the final score and for the other 85 minutes I had to force myself no to fall sleep.
The so expected clash between Germany and Poland was a little better (or less worse). Podolski respect for Poland (he was born there) and for his Polish family was admirable. He didn't celebrate the two goals that seal Germany's victory and what a beautiful goal was that second one. But besides that none of the teams really impressed me.
But monday has finally arrived (football is the only reason to make me happy on a Monday morning) and right now I'm here at OleOle's HQ sitting next to my friend Frenchi just waiting for the (hopefully) two great matches of the day...
On Ronaldinho? Pelé? Garricha? Zico? WHO'S THE BEST BRAZILIAN FOOTBALLER OF ALL TIMES?
