    That's a good point. It completely slipped my mind, probably because my teams have not faired well in shootouts recently.

    Brilliant game, edge of your seat ****, still a little wasted so probably muttering on. Always had a soft spot for Sweden since my favourite ever player is from there the great Henrik Larsson but anyway the better team probably won.

    There's usually a good few English players I hate but tonight it was only Terry & Cole I despise but they better come first in their group or Spain will rip them to shreds in the second round.

    This Poland vs Czech Republic match should be great. Poland must win to secure the 3 points and advance, while Czech knows a tie puts them through. The crowd will be going crazy and I think we see Poland pull off the win, 2-1.

    Russia will have no difficulty with Greece but may be cautious pull players. No matter what, I don't see a way Greece wins.

    Greece and Russia can actually go through if Greece wins and Czech-Poland goes to a draw. I don't think that outcome is likely, but its a possibility and its what I'm hoping for. In my first bracket challenge I went with Russia and Poland, but my second and more recent so I'm counting as my real bracket, I have Greece and Russia. As long as Czech doesn't go through I won't be upset. I picked Greece and Russia, but Russia and Poland would be okay since Poland is hosting. I just don't want Russia to somehow slip out, I wouldn't call myself a fan of them, but I do like them more than most teams in the tourny.

    Correct, a Greece win can put them through. I am just assuming they, at best, reach a draw.

    Poland looks great but can't put anything in the net. They are dominating this match right now (21 minutes in).

    68 minutes in and my scenario is looking good. I'm probably jinxing it by posting this but oh well.

    Deutschland!!!

    We're going to smash Greece on Friday!

    Germany basically owns Greece economically, they will own them on the pitch as well!

    That goal by Spain was WAY too easy!
