ok, switching over to THE GAME!

wow, i'm really impressed - Austrians were fighting like lions... it's going to be really hard to beat them in the next game

and they started to play like pussies - whenever an Austrian player is closer than one meter, they dive... pathetic :(

if it wasn't Austria, i'd even say that they defend desperately :D

Croatians now just kick the ball forward as far away from their goal as they can

Austria really putting pressure on here.

but still this game is much more interesting than Portugal-Turkey yesterday

Damn Austria are very poor.

see ya

Im off... catch up with yous for the poland-german match

from Polish live commentary: "Croatians seems not to care about the game after they scored and realised against what kind of team they play. They play against the team, that can't play football"
:D

ok, time for either a smoke or some Chinese commercials ;)

this match is getting so exciting that i have to make myself another cup of coffee...

And Jurgen Cunp is on the bench ;)

Their number 5 is Christian Fuchs!

well... he wants to be remembered this way or another :)

owwww, that was close to 0-2...

The Austrian left back has terrible hair

OMG, I can execute corner kick better in EURO 2008 game than Austrian players on the field...

ok, we DO have another C.Ronaldo here...

Awful acting by the Croatian. He should be given a yellow card for that. Pathetic.

Of course...

but he's still a pussy :)

He can't be anywhere near that scummy

do we have new C.Ronaldo?

What a shocker of a dive by Kovac.

?

Croatia lost Eduardo, but Poland also lost one of key players - Blaszczykowski. He's not a big star, but the strength of Poland is team cooperation, so the lose is significant

haha

heh, that's me, TX

Arseblogger said "I hope they do it for Eduardo better than we did it for Eduardo"

Would have been nice to see Eduardo - would have made it a bit more interesting.

i like this plan :D

so the plan is: beat the hell out of Germany today, then the match with Austria and (as one of Croatian players said) "a friendly match between Poland and Croatia"

I understand they "are going to do it for Eduardo."

true :)

I think it's more to do with Austria being completely rubbish

Croatia seems to be in really good form, I'd even say - better than Portugal yesterday

I've already memorized how to write "Poland" in Chinese, but it's just me :)

that's very helpful, no doubt ;-)

nope, and I can also learn how to write "Croatia" in Chinese :D

Good point, TX

At least you do not ave to listen to the morons on espn!

especially when i watch TV about once every two years - World Cup and EURO :D

nope, only on paid Sky... and i wouldn't call $65.50 a month for at least a year "normal" :D

haha, too many pixels.

but anyway, you've got no delay, but i've got track-the-ball system :D

Is it not on normal TV in NZ?

i wonder why the delay is so big... censorship? ;)

you're so lucky that you see everything earlier

no no, that's all right ;)

Ahhh, ok. I won't post about the red card for a couple of minutes then!

Yep, now it's the replay

hehe scores just now

Nope, in NZ
And I'm watching the game on streaming from Chinese CCTV5

Are you living in a time warp, Veyder?

I've seen the faul about 10 seconds ago

Argh, spoiling again! :)

My prediction here LINK

1-0 Croatia, Modric scores.

0-2

Penalty!

haha, too much tequilla last nite... i should pass.

So, your score predictions?

It's beer o'clock here

eye, early innit?

My alarm clock has managed to wake me up this time ;)

hi

Very early morning :) I'm here

Afternoon. Anyone here?
