Euro 2008

Good game, fancied the Portugese based on their good form in groups coupled with Germany’s iffy form.

But… this German team has what German teams of the past have lacked. Creativity.

Glad my man Klose is off the mark, but I think the chances of me winning my money back are slim to none now!

Once again, the referees protect the big teams. Germany were getting battered until Ballack’s shove on the Portuguese defender to make it 3-1.

The rest of the half was just giving Germany free kicks to break up Portugal’s momentum and alleviate the pressure on the German goal.

Still, it’s alright, Croatia will thrash Germany and win the tournament. Praise be to Bilic!

the turks may have something to say about that…

-Imp

They may, or they may have used up all their luck/bribe money in that one amazing game against the Czechs.

I’ve essentially been supporting Croatia ever since they taught England a footballing lesson, and as an Englander it kills me to see Germany doing well.

:slight_smile: Hehehehehehehehe…

WOW!!!

second overtime and tied it up!!!

this is a game!!

-Imp

Un-freaking-believable!

WOW !!! YEAH!!! THE TURKS DID IT !!!

YEEEHAWWW!!!

-Imp

This is movie material right here…

Well, that was a turn up for the books. Though, to be quite honest, the Turks played like wankers for most of the game. Thank God, or rather Allah, that Ruştu was up to scratch.

that was a thing of beauty… but now they have got to play germany… will they even have 11 players?

turkey all the way!!

-Imp

:laughing: We are so screwed. But then, I’ve been saying that for the last three matches.

I predict two of Germany’s forwards will be struck by lightning in the first half, and Allah himself will come down and score the winning goal in the second.

Btw, we also have the best manager - Fatih Terim.

Makes all those Euro managers look like pastey-faced cottagers.

hehe figure this one out for yourself

UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Dirty cheating bunch of talentless chancers.

Three games in a row, Turkey have played like shit, been outdone by the opposition and still won.

The only way they can redeem themselves in my eyes is if they put the Germans out. If they do that, all will be forgiven. Until then, they are the anti Christ (or anti Mohammed, if you prefer) of football.

:laughing:

Typical Englishman! :smiley: Sorry SIATD!

I think Turkey showed great spirit. Yes they were not the better team and everyone knew it, but they stuck to their task, and never NEVER gave up. Often in football that is what pulls you through games more than skill and natural talent.

Interesting fact, Turkey have only been leading in the four games they have played for 5 mins. A true embodiment of never giving up.

That, and the referee giving you a lot of free kicks.

2 minutes.

I wonder if a certain someone had some money riding on them…?

I neutral here. I support Scotland and whoever England are playing! :smiley:

I knew it was something ridiculous like that.

hahaha :laughing:

turkey has a shit squad, at least half the team has no place playing in this tournament but yeah from some miracle they’re in the semis. at least they can win a game unlike england :wink: hehehe england lost to croatia, turkey beat croatia, therefore turkey is better than england :laughing:

luck only favours the brave :laughing:
