A very tough-minded side on that pitch today.

Bloody good match.

quarter finals start tonight
Germany Portugal then

Turkey Croatia
Holland Russia
Spain Italy

It's been a superb tournament so far. I reckon the Holland Russia game will be a belter of a game. both play so attractively.. Tonight's game may be a bit more reserved, unless we get a goal soon..

2-1 to Germany at half time.. Id recommend everyone to watch the 2nd half, it should be class.. Germans are wiley old dogs and might just hang in there against the silky Portuguese..

Holland.
We call them Holland, The Netherlands, the Dutch.
Gotta sort things out. They speak Dutch, and they are the Dutch.
I guess they could be called Hollanders or Nederlanders.

Ok. I looked some stuff up. Its a mess.

Goal early by Croatia or Turkey and we got a good game methinks.

You see that tiny seam SENTURK had to get the ball thru? What a clutch shot. They have chronically weak D, but they are pretty clutch shooters. They got a lot of yellow cards today. Unlike most of their penalty problems, they didn't deserve very many of those yellows today. Nihat went down with maybe a hammy. Don't know if anybody good will be left to play. Will need miracle #3. This is the drama club. How much time did they have left? 5 seconds?
