i'm happy to see spain come out swinging today. they always have great individual talent and real good coaching, but as a team they've tended to bejust slightly above average in international/european team competition
hopefully they can use today's win to give them enough confidence to match up against some of the more favored teams (if it comes to that).
this saturday's game should be fun to watch.

Cesc's goal was definitely offsides but the refs just wanted to go home
Spain are always fun to watch but I'll remain skeptical until they get over the hump. I cant remember the last time they beat a top 10 team in a majortournament. On the bright side, Villa and Torres upfront until atleast the 2010 WC is going to be scary.
France are starting to decline, who's going to replace Vieira and Makalele in midfield after this tourny? Who'll replace Thuram? Who's going toprovide the team with 10 years of service upfront like Thierry Henry did? Despite Italy's humiliating loss, I still think they're in better shape thanFrance.

Jeremy Toulalan, Flamini, Lassana Diarra (Maka's son)are all quality CDM/CM's. Toulalan still needs to progress. Mexes seems ideal to replace Thuram assuming he can actually get called up by Domenech. Benzemawill hold down the fort up front for years to come.
Its very hard to imagine players filling the shoes of heroes like Vieira, Maka, and Henry but there is alot of French talent that will have to be developedfurther.

Good match so far.. both teams getting decent attempts, very clean play for the most part, just good clean football. I think CRonaldo get a goal here beforeit's over.

This isn't over yet though, czechs have had like 3 chances that should've definitely been goals.. this is a great game.

Czechs have really impressed me this match. I think it's clear Portugal were/are the favorites in this group, and they will most likely win this game, butI didn't think the Czech's would threaten this often...I wouldn't be shocked if they get another one before this is over to tie it up.
Really great match, this is why it's called the beautiful game!

Portugal is kind of struggling with weaker teams. It will be interesting to see how they fair against a better team.

Any match called by Adrian Healey is automatically better.
