Hey GMCers,

Any football fans out there? I am not a big fan myself but I watch the World Cup or the Euro Cup. Soooo, any guesses for the final match and who wins ??

My guess: Holland wins, of course

Cheers,
O.

Although they are certainly not the best, I'm always going for England! My favorite type of football

But I think the strongest forces will be Spain, Holland and of course... Germany!

My only real wish is for Portugal's team to somehow get destroyed because they beat and threw my nation out in the LAST extended qualifications match TWICE (on these Euro qualifications and the World cup qualifications for South Africa 2010 world cup). The last obstacle!

They beat us then, and beat us now, and if we won either game we'd be on the World cup 2010 (for the first time in history) or Euro 2012 (for the first time in history). So close. So frustrating.

Anywaaay... I'm rooting all against them

I understand man I understand
Germany is playing Portugal this Saturday Have your German flag ready

It's ON!

Nice one Dino, that's the spirit

It will be a shock for all of you, but I got my fingers crossed for the german team

They are not in their best shape at the moment, so I really hope they will finish the group first or second. It's a pretty tough group, but I guess Holland and Germany are gonna make it and then see each other in the final again

To be honest (among us), if Germany doesn't win the cup, I hope Holland will. But don't tell any of my fellow countrymen

Christian

Hehe Dino nice man You are going for it !!
Well, I am dating a German girl these days, she is really into this. I am gonna watch the Germany game with her, I hope Germany wins so the rest of the evening is a bit more smoother
But I have no doubt Germany will get out of the group..

I am not into football too ... the team is not in the best shape right now ... but we will win the first couple of games !

How can this be your guess?
When Germany and Denmark qualifies for next round, there will be no room for Holland

Hehehe we will see man, we will see

Ha, this is gonna get interesting

I really wonder how good the danish team is gonna be. Any insights, Ulrik?

And Opetholic, careful when dating german girls who are into football when you support the other team. Trust me, things can get ugly. As a man, you have to be the one holding yourself back. No matter what she says, always agree

Hehehe thanks for the tip Gitarrero I was gonna meet her with a Dutch jersey but then probably it's not a good idea

If she is the cool and funny type, she'll laugh about it, which means she's a keeper

The real test comes when Holland play against Germany

I really want Sweden to win but thats most likely not going to happen.

My other favorite for the gold is Germany

Oh haha I am definitely not planning to watch Holland vs Germany with her

I do not have any favourite country. Just enjoying good football

I just hope that those idiots (racist) don't ruin the games.

EDIT: First goal and what a GOAL

i hope too that everything goes the Fair Way , its still Sport and should make excitement and fun for everyone !

I watch of course the german matches and the Final Game anyway who is playing against each other .

At the world cup a lot of the players were old good players with a lot of routine. Unfortunately many of them had small injuries and were only 90% ready. Result was one win and two losses.

This year they only picked those players that was 100% fit, meaning that our most experienced goal keeper had to stay home with an injury from the last test games. Today some Danish reporters saw one of the players lying in an ambulance.

In the qualification Denmark and Portugal beat each other once, and Denmark won the group. Seems still portugal is not considered as much an underdog as Denmark.

Denmark can beat the best teams on a good day, but overall they got more days than Germany and Holland, where they just plain suck!

We will know a bit more in 24 hours, when it's time for Holland and Denmark.

Oh shait ! What a game ! Greece - Poland

You're right Ville, great match! Wouldn't have thought that Greece would be that good. Too bad they didn't score the penalty...

After the miss they zoomed to Greece's coach. The face expression told everything

Hey guys !

Check this out "Tango 12"



How they measure, check and double check the ball. And that robot foot is hilarious !!

Supporting both my nationalities, so Poland and England. Shame about that muggy Arsenal keeper..

Never knew you were part polishl! Too bad they didn't win, I really don't like Greece...

I'm Polish but I'm not into football at all

Anyway I hope that everything will be good as far as event preparation goes etc. I live in Wroclaw - today there is Russia - Czech Republic game.

About the link about racists, neo-nazis etc. Sad thing that it is true, but of course only on polish league matches.
And of course 99,9% of Polish are really ashamed of them (and so do I) :<

Personally, I hate such behaviour. I'm more of a open, left-winged type of world view, if you know what I mean.

Well well, just saying, only room for Germany and Denmark!

I knew this was coming.. Posts in this thread are forbidden from now on

Sorry guys I had to

that's a good one!

Still, he didn't play that good yesterday. But it's no shame losing against Germany

Balotelli doesn't last for long if he continues playing like that. 1st yellow already. Spain gonna whoop those Italians asses.

Damn you Holland, you need to win just one game at this cup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've watched both games simultaneously, and the Holland vs. Portugal match was a bit better...and Holland could have won this match. Let's just say they had no luck scoring in this tournament.
It's really a shame that Denmark is out, would have liked to see them get to the quarter finals.

Me too obviously !
