Place your bets (Euro 2008)

[Minoshia]

They'd have to win their next two games to make it out of the group stage, assuming Sweden or Spain win a single game.

[Uno]

Is that likely?

[Bardock]

I know nothing of soccer/football.

[Minoshia]

Greece has a slim chance of making it out of the group stage, though Sweden could lose out, and they could win/win or win/tie and get in barely. assuming Russia (i think its Russia) continues to suck, which they will. But Sweden nor Spain will lose out i don't think.

[Kirano]

Villa and Torres are overrated. >.>

I hope neither Italy or France advances, so Romania and Netherlands better beat both of them respectively tomorrow. And than Italy better beat France...

No way are Villa and Torres overated. Are you forgetting Torres was Liverpool's top scorer. He came second to Ronaldo in overall goals in his debut season for the club. As for Villla, we all know he pwns Valencia. He's worth all the praise people give him. He had a textbook performance against the Russian's.

Italy will advance, but France won't. They haven't been the same since they won euro 2000. I don't see Romania beating Italy either. It'll be a draw at most when they meet.

It's "futbol".

As not to be mistaken with the far cooler American sport, football.

[Saz]

Gtfo.

[Bojack]

I like soccer, I'm just razzin'.

If it was possible to closely follow soccer in America, I'd be all over it.

[Bardock]

Yeah. America doesn't care much about soccer. Sorry Beckham.

[Saz]

Heh. You don't have to feel sorry for him. I'm he'll be comforted by the hundreds of millions he's making for kicking a ball around.

I hate Liverpool. So, so much.

I know it won't happen, but i WANT italy and france to both be eliminated. i want to see new blood advance.

[Kirano]

I don't know why but my instincts told me to put £3 on Holland beating France 4-1. Now I've won £120. As soon as I jump in a shower, I'm gonna go collect my money.

[Minoshia]

Les Bleus are so terrible this year. Romania tied the azzurri, this makes me happy. if Romania can beat Holland, they advance! Underdogs ftw.

[Kirano]

Romania can beat Holland, they advance! Underdogs ftw.

LoL! Not a chance.

[Minoshia]

anything can happen. and it'd be better than watching the Italians of the French escape this round through luck alone. Romania should have beaten the Italians, Mutu fucked up the penalty.

[Kirano]

Yeah. Italy have been very fortunate these days. I'd rather see France go throught than Italy. Italy play boring football. I hate it.

[Minoshia]

I don't find Italian style ball boring, although it is different from most other styles throughout the world. My favorite team happens Inter Milan. Zlatan ftw.

Oh my god Turkey. See? No one expected THAT to happen. The Czechs getting bounced at the group stage, i can't say that doesn't please me - i hate Peter Cech and his head protector gadget

[Kirano]

Why do I get the feeling a dark horse team like Croatia is going to win Euro 2008? A repeat of four years ago.

[Minoshia]

I might agree, but the top tier teams like portugal and spain are too filthy to let a dark horse overcome them.
