by far the best game of the tournament so far

end to end stuff with some fantastic football

hollands 2nd goal was superb and they are looking great for a final place so far

enjoyable stuff

Yes they are very entertaining but a little worried about their defence...great game though..and a cracker when the Italians meet the French next week

7 of those 10 scored by holland

dont think it really matters about there defence, they have that you score 2 we,ll score 3 mentality

on those 2 performances i can see a final place for the dutch

if holland win their 1/4 final match and the runners of this group also win their 1/4 final match then they both meet in the semis

maybe it is in hollands best interest if romania go thru with them

seeing how holland have topped the group they can let romania beat them on tuesday and send france and italy home which would mean they wouldnt meet france or italy in semis

but saying that after beating italy 3-0 and france 4-1 would they really miond meeting either in the semis?

cracking game of football

we get back on track??

spain vs sweden

strongly fancy spain to win and seal their passage to the the 1/4 finals today but they are abit short @ 1.68 for my liking, sweden have a couple of players out and spain are expected to play the same 11 that destroyed russia 4-1, maybe spain -1 goal @ 2.25 could be a bet, spain to win and 3 or more goals in the game @ 3.20 looks decent

greece vs russia

greece were shocking against sweden in the first game and deserved to lose, although russia lost 4-1 they actually played some good football vs spain and at times made spain look pretty poor, russia hit the post at 1-0 down and if that went in could have been a totally different game, russia are better than the 4-1 scoreline suggests

can see russia beating greece and sending greece home today, russia @ 2.27 looks about right, not too much value

both games to have 2 or more goals @ 2.04 looks an absolute stonking bet imo!!

can see maybe 3-4 goals in spain game and can see 2-3 goals in russia game

both games to have 2-3 goals @ 3.64 looks a good shout

Yep i agree i see both as overs today....The Spanish are a great attacking team and there should be plenty of goals in that game..

The Russians can score goals and i think this will be overs too, and a good attacking game.....

bally73 · #**168** June 14th, 2008, 11:06

my vote would be both overs aswell and not a bad return

TheCaptain · #**169** June 14th, 2008, 13:00

Ok - I have to disagree on the Greece Game - I was dreadfully dissappointed with them in the first game, but they tried to play like they did in the last tourney. DEFEND DEFEND DEFEND DEFEND DEFEND DEFEND DEFEND NICK A GOAL DEFEND SOME MORE. They got caught in the first game but I still think they will play the same again. Only problem was again I could not see where the goal was coming from and I think therefore Russia will win.

As such I would plump for HT Draw FT Russia

I think Spain will win, but Sweden surprised me in the first game, so I agree overs would be the sensible bet here, don't care who scores as long as someone does!
