And there's the Germany goal...

[deconstruction]

Portugal with about five good/great looks so far.

[Wills Eeks]

6 now.

[DrewDawg]

Portugal has had about 5 good chances already.

[teddykgb]

this is the Portugal I know, lots of creation with no final product

[DrewDawg]

Denmark ties it!!!

[BigPapiLumber Co.]

And Denmark tie it! What awesome football so far!

[sachmoney]

Great header from Bendtner there. ADDING TO THAT TRANSFER FEE.

[Wills Eeks]

RVP has been a stiff so far.

[teddykgb]

nice dive from VDV there.

The Wilhelm vs Nani matchup may end up getting nominated for a Screen Actors Guild award

[ifmanis5]

Woah Denmark back in the mix. Group is living up to billing.

[Royal Reader]

Yup, good drama here.

[teddykgb]

also since I have to leave now i'll point out that Nani has been very good thus far

[ifmanis5]

Oh fuck it.

[DrewDawg]

Wow. Portugal scores.

[BigPapiLumber Co.]

Fuck! Ronaldo ...

[SoxFanInCali]

It's about time.

[Wills Eeks]

Sweet pass.

[SoxFanInCali]

More Sunday pub team defense from the Dutch. They could be 3 or 4 down already.

Yeah, I watch and think my son's U15 team could at least have some shots on goal.

[sachmoney]

Germany should have at least 3 goals right now. They are playing some titillating football around the box. Good last chance defending from Denmark I suppose, but there have been some very good chances.

[SoxFanInCali]

Hey Cristiano, you have a left foot, too.

[sachmoney]

Schürrle on for Podolski. Excited to see what he can do. I thought this was Poldi's best game because he had much more freedom to attack today. Obviously, he had the nice goal, but he had some good chances and some good build up play. I liked what I saw from Schürrle in the friendly against Switzerland.

[hunter05]

The diving and flopping by Portugal is embarrassing. Nothing new I guess but my god

[SoxFanInCali]

Oh, Nani...

[ifmanis5]

Nani's got a bit of Mario Chalmers qualities in him.

[hunter05]

That does it.

[ifmanis5]

Dutch defense should be forced to walk home.

[cjdmadcow]

A goal for Denmark now and Germany would go out!

[Warning Track Speed]

And a Denmark goal now would send the Germans home.

Edit: What he said.

I'm Danish and the biggest homer there is....but that would be massively unfair. Orange letting everyone down!

[sachmoney]

BENDERRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[SoxFanInCali]

And that's that.

[Wills Eeks]

Why did Poulsen stop running? Retarded.

[ifmanis5]

Germany v. Greece will be gloriously awkward.

[SoxFanInCali]

Robben looked less than enthused about shaking Nani's hand there.

[sachmoney]

Germany v. Greece will be gloriously awkward.

Or awesome.

Did Bender do enough to win the starting RB role over Boateng?

[Royal Reader]

You know, if you'd said before the tournament Holland wouldn't have got a single point, you'd have been laughed out of the room.

[Royal Reader]

Also, if I were the Germans, I'd have a huge banner asking for my money back.

That would take a certain amount of chutzpah considering the last time the Germans were in this situation they elected Hitler.

This will be an awesome occasion. If Greece don't come out and play like 11 men possessed their assets should be confiscated and their citizenship stripped.

Konrad Adenauer says, "Grüß dich!"

Honestly, I kinda think this might be a really violent game for the supporters. German citizens on the whole, as far as I know, are not very happy about bailing Greece out to save the EU.

[Spacemans Bong]

Konrad Adenauer says, "Grüß dich!"

I thought about that but the Marshall Plan involved a certain amount of magnanimity that the Germans aren't offering. What's happening now with a broken state being told to go fuck itself with people committing suicide and dumpster diving for food is more like what Adenauer would face if he sat down in 1946 with a bunch of people who agreed with Henry Morgenthau.

This is the likeliest sporting event to match the blood in the water USSR-Hungary water polo match from the 1956 Olympics in a long time. The Greek players and fans should be off the charts intense about playing Germany. I'd hope so anyway. The Germans get to go back to Germany, the Greeks to an unholy mess.

I dislike Ronaldo quite a bit (despite recognizing his generational talents), but big ups to him for his team getting through. If they were going to advance, he had to be the best player on the pitch, and he was essentially that today. Between this and the La Liga title...

so i guess you´ll be sitting there, dick in hand, waiting for the bloodshed, you dumb little rubbernecking cunt.

only for assholes like you this whole EU mess is about the greek people vs the german people, when in reality it is about the greek bourgeoisie and the german bourgeoisie fucking people in the arse.

i fear we will read a lot of drivel like yours until friday.

that said, the greek team is the last team i wanted us to play in the quarterfinals. i love them, their intensity and their brand of football since the days of könig otto, and i think it will be hard for us to beat them (especially if gomez is playing).

and with all their political and economical suffering i´d actually root for them to beat evil germany and win the title.

but since i´m a german nationalist pig footballwise, of course i hope we´ll win. which we will do, barely.

The greeks play ugly but passionate football. I think you're correct about the outcome as well.

Carl, I apologize for getting ahead of myself and making it a German people vs. Greek people thing, although I think the Greeks will very much be motivating themselves by making it about playing 11 Merkels on the pitch. Or they should, because they won't beat them through talent. Koening Otto is not walking through that door.

This is the call for Ronaldo's second goal by the primary announcer for the state radio.

Ha, the group phase of this EM did provide a highlight after all
