Maybe first 20min, polish team, wasn't very good, but rest of game they were brilliant

Definitely right. Howard Webb is always making bad calls like that.

Shock!!! unfair decision about penalty kick, in extra 3 min this match. Very unfair arbiter!.Howard Webb: GO HOME!!!

There is a lack of consistency in decisions. One call is given in one match that influences the outcome, while it isn't in another match and influences the outcome of that as well.

I think the refs huvnae been that bad...

Yeah, the same for Portugal - they still may be second

They're saying Croatia has won the group....they haven't. If Croatia lose to Poland and Germany beat Austria by 2 goals Germany go top!

The officiating in this competition has been really poor.

Will we then see Germany vs. Portugal?

croatia are through then.

Come to think of it, Howard Webb has ruined this game totally with both goals.

It happened because Poland failed to finish this match when they had the opportunities

damnnn.. :S

Yeah Howard Webb's known for controversy. I wouldn't have given that. There needs to be more in it.

...the girl in the grey jacket. Anyone saw her?

I think it was a bold call.

Wow who was that dejected hottie sitting in the stands. She looks amazing!!!

Don't cry Bart... it was a penalty

I think it was probably a soft penalty.

And he's buried it!!!!!!!!!

awwwww!!!!!penalty
!!!!!

Weak call? What are your thoughts?

He's pointed to the spot!!!

that would be something if Austria won against Germany :D

Actually, Austria still have a chance even if they lose today. They could beat Germany and Croatia could beat Poland and it would come right down to the wire between them, Germany and Poland.

yeah, I couldn't either if Poland wasn't playing ;)

Credit to you veyDer, I really couldn't commentate on this entire game.

Oh okay

Something like "Vahrshava"

(Yawns)

Ahhh cool

you missed Poland wasting chances. The match is good. But not as good as the first half

Random question: Is Warsaw pronounced as "Varsav"?

Shit some nap that was! What have I missed?

Vastic is 38!!! wow!

Just in...but I think I should be singing Arfur Borucs praises....

The Polski are wasting too many chances

This match is CRAZZZYYYY!!!

Smolarek just wasted a counter attack

i am more selective about the games i watch when ive got work

oh ok

thats what i meant. im at work and not watching it.

In the meantime I'll go take a nano nap.

It's already half time. They'll be back out in another 3 minutes or so.

how much longer til the half?

Rob Stone: "The group of death has been awfully entertaining"

What tournament is he watching?! Obviously Romania and France weren't playing in that group of death.

yay, poland is winning... good job Boruc...

...and now I want to sleep. Perfect!

Oh okay

Hmm, Korkmaz was coming in from the left just now in open play. Looks like it was him.

I think it depends on the connection and stuff... technical talk that i really don't understand too much about... sorry... :S

And yeah Mano,I mean right here.

yeah, it has no issues for me :S

Okay, but that's so much work though.

untick Auto-refresh. And jut manually refresh.

I think Ivanschitz is the guy I was talking about earlier.

What do you mean? In the chat?

Damn it, Manogil are you an admin here. This thing that's causing my messages to not be sent is really pissing me off now.

haha

That's good... I'm cheating... I have a list right in front of me... ;)

That looks like kerzinovek and they're saying shinowek though.

hahaha, I can't be arsed. I just spell it as I hear it.

Easy spelling ... hahaha... KRZYNOWEK

*was

Shinowek (*sp) looks a little like Jamie Carragher. Looking at the replay of the goal again I'm more convinced now that it wsa offside.

told you there would be goals hah

Ok new prediction. 1-0 at half and 2-0 at the final whistle ...any objections?

That's exactly what happens when you don't make the most of your chances, you're made to pay!

austria could have been way ahead if they didn't suck at finishing.

I think he was in an offside position when the ball was played in but moved back onside to finish it.

dang there goes my prediction lol

cable is back!

Yep

Yeah

:o, roger scored?

Guerreiro might've been offside though.

I mean, Poland!

just got that in

goooooaaallll for BRAZIL!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA TAKE THAT YOU IDIOTS!!!!

That sucks

my cable died :(, can't see the game.

I couldn't see his number. He's putting in some great crosses though.

Damn it man, this site is shitting me today. Almost everytime I type the page reloads and my message gets lost.

what's his number?

Oh okay. Whoever he is he's impressing me though.

hahahaha

Yeah and Korkmaz is on the right.

Pogatetz plays as left defendr and Korkmaz plays as left-mid-winger

pogatez is the ugly defender from Boro.

korkmaz?

Pogatetz

Can someone here please tell me the name of the Austrian left winger?

lol

half way right in the 0-0 half time prediction =)

My ESPN2 is showing baseball

I'm on ESPN International though. That's the one with the english programmes but spanish ads.

o shite, so it's working for you then... hmm... espn2 cut off for me :S.

The left winger for Austria.

Oh wow that was a beautifully weighted cross. I'm liking this left winger a lot. I hope Arsene Wenger's watching him. What's his name?

???

Yep. IS the transmission working for you now on espn2?

Yeah, we saw how well that offside trap worked against Germany.

Yeah great pace to it. Now wouldn't it have been ironic if he had scored that but missed the others?

blame canadaaaaa blame canadaaaaa

kamikaze defense. I think vayder is streaming the game hah, he's a bit behind! And the tranmission just went out :S.

cuz the defense is so slow.

What a game so far though!

If Poland were to score, especially against the run of play I'd laugh my head off.

poland have the worst offisde trap i;ve ever seen

Does he need the keeper to be blindfolded? He still might miss anyway.

looool wow... austria is poor at finighing

FUCKING HELL!!!

yeah defo

Questions need to be asked of that defender who played the ball back towards the keeper after it too.

I'd be so pissed off if I was the winger

fuck sake austria are poor at finishing

Poor poor poor poor poor!!!!

right in the mommy daddy button :S

ooo got nailed in the balls.

Ooooh

boruc almost did... but the player shot poorly ;)

wow
what a misssss

yes, boruc and macho won't let anything past them this half.

i love games like this tbh. It won't be 0-0.

these 2 are going to end the half tied up 0-0

there can only be one Fab playing in EURO .. and that's cesc.

Fabster indeed.

Fabster.

Fabianski is on the bench...

right, what was i thinking... swiss.

it's gona be a good game

oh, i care about this match even less now.

senderos is swiss :P

He drowned during the water polo match yesterday :(

i injured him

Where is Senderos?

how long did roger play in poland for :S

go poland!

haha, Christian Fuchs

OK, I'm going to concentrate on the commentary (and watching the game) for a while...

Alright

And Dąbrowski was Polish general

Oh okay

I know, but I dono.. not a fan to be honest.

...and what does that mean in english?

Mazurek is kind of song

That's why it's so funny, Eboue doesn't really sound like that.

Polish anthem is "Mazurek Dąbrowskiego"

I don't like it hah, the voice is just weird!

I hope so :)

OK veyDer - let's hope the Poles are having a better day than the Germans

The Eboue sketches are always funny! Especially that time when he did the centibabies. LMAO!!!!!

Okay what the hell, veyDer help me out here. The Polish team are singing their anthem and they put "Dabroksi's Madurska (or however it's spelt)" and for the translation they put back the same
thing. What is it in Polish and what is it in English?

god that Linz is an ugly fellow.

And Gil - so do I. I've given up long ago to be honest. I stopped playing because their coaches don't understand the game. It's like american football, you have to be pumped up and agressive and
just fucking sprint the whole game. No beauty in it at all. Was a waste of 4 years for me :P.

I personally hate the eboue bits :P.

Americans are just behind in football. They try to learn ... I try to be patient with them, after all, I live in the USA... :p

lol

Arseblog is always funny. I just hope he does an Arsecast for tomorrow and I hope Eboue's on.

I hate how they wont accept that football is the world game and instead of trying to adapt to the terminology the rest of the world uses, they bring their American terminologies over from their
other sports into it.

"They switch from Deeee-fence to offence well"
"Now here's Italy in the defensive quadrant of the field"

one of the best quotes from Arseblog today

"In the other game Portugal beat the Czech Republic 3-1 and it was then announced that Scolari would be the new Chelsea manager from July 1st. I
hope he's just as successful with Chelsea as he has been with Portugal."

we have lost in the semi-final against Germany (again!), but they were just flukes

i abosultely hate american football pundits XD they're so damn cheeky

yep, Poland was third - the biggest success so far

I remember Boniek and Lato from the 1982 World Cup when Poland finish in third (right?) I was 6 years old and was already playing on a team. It was the first time a fell in love with football...

just watch the Brazilian guy ;)

This is gonna be a difficult game to watch.

I know basically nothing about either of these teams.

but Boniek played in that game, anyway

it was semi-final of Champions Cup in 1983

hahahahaha

oh, i just checked, it wasn't Boniek, but Surlit, my bad

they couldn't find the doctor, because he hid himself to watch the game :D

Boniek scored two goals in that match :D

btw: i was born during the match between Widzew Lodz and Juventus

that's true

tsc tsc tsc... some ex-footballers should keep their mouth shut and leave us with the good memories of their great contribution on the pitch!

he claimed that he talked with Acquafresca and he's 100% sure that he's going to play for us... and everyone else is wrong

like there was an issue with Acquafresca possibly playing for Poland

actually - thinks too little ;)

Boniek was really good player, but right now i think he talks too much and thinks too much

hahaha

well, i'm also going to write post match report, it may just take me more time if Poland loses ;)

I'll also post pictures

actually it's closer to 4-4-1-1, with Roger as offensive midfielder

Cool Bart... The commentary is on you for this one! I'll write a post match report... I hope Poland wins! Just because I grew up having Boniek as one of my idols

of course they still claim that it's 4-3-1-2 and not 4-5-1, but that's a detail ;)

Poland to pull off a narrow win here today. Maybe a 1 goal difference.

see, the official line-up has been updated, i was right :)

he hasn't recovered fully from the last injury, i reckon

ah well he did against Germany... don't know why.. he's horible. I mean, he plays for Steaua :S.

he does not, at least based on reports from Poland

unless Germany will lose points against Austria, but that's really hardly unlikely :P

Well it COULD be done. Btw. Why the hell does Golanski start?

so, Poland must win today and by at least two goals with Croatia to qualify

heh nahhhh. Engelaar transfered to schalke

I was rather thinking about... hmmm, Barcelona? ;)

I hope not :P

ah okay. Well he impressed me. I hope Rapid Bucuresti buy him :D

according to Polish websites he's in the starting line-up, according to OleOle he's not.

We will see in about 30 minutes

i really hope so - after all he got Polish citizenship for a reason ;)

is roger starting?

me as well ;)

i bet for austria :S

i am pulling for austria

me too, but it was obvious :D

I am.

I think Poland are going to win this one. anyone here?
