Final score:
England: 4 Croatia: 2
France: 3 Switzerland: 1
France and England through
ok, my prediction comes true.
Henry shifts into higher gear and scores twice. Ziddi is already the best player of the tournament.
England become second and should get ready for a real whipping from Figo and co. They only have two days to recover whereas Portugal had 3.

Yeh Heskey sucks, as does Owen (although his game picked upa bit towards the end).
[/QUOTE]
Come on Sadi, Owen has set up two goals for Rooney in two matches and today he had a hand in two goals specially the third one. I m sure he will come good in next match.

If England plays like they did today, Portugal are in for a real fight. Should be a cracker of a match.
Today England did exactly what they should have done against France. They kept playing attacking football even after going up.

So Fraudia, remind me of what you were saying about Rooney last Sunday :D
[/QUOTE]
same thing that Sven said and even the Croat manager..
i.e. he needs to control his temper (evident by his # of goals vs # of bookings for his club)
seems like he did... which is good. no one needed to see another talented person do something lame like becks did against argentina and end up costing the team the match.
dang...lots of goals today :D
here are pics from euro2004.com taken at the time the goals were scored...first, the france and switzerland game:

only thing needed is for Rooney to get a yellow somewhere soon...so he'll be suspended

Yeh Fraudz, but I can't tease Sven/Croat manager, can I ? :p He's come up trumps, end of story.
Nessy, won't everyone start the semis with a clean state?
ok, let's hope the Germans are silly enough not to win from the Dutch....so we can have a Eng - Hol semifinal would Figo and co not suffice to knock Eng out
okay so england beat croatia 4-2 while france tied with them
and england beat swiss 3-0 while france did 3-1
so they are not as shabby as some thought..kewl
SO they beat Croatia, whoopedydoo 
Group B wasn’t exactly the toughest one. The one team they had to beat to prove they can play football they didn’t beat.
Hope they get a good beating from Portugal.
man, 
why are you always making these indirect comparisons…head-to-head Ziddi won 2-1
^ yeah shinoo your organe boys have a real powerhouse group. germany which is a weak weak side, and those record breakers dynasty of soccer also known as Latvia..
^ Fraudz Germans have always performed well on 'big' tournaments (brits should know that :p ) ANd I think the chechz have proven that they are title candidates. Latvia is the only 'outsider'
Great game but Owen must be gutted that he didnt scored.
problem is shinoo........the Czech can only meet Eng in the final......would have loved to see them play Eng in the semis.....now it will be France vs Czech Republic
And I’ve tried to cheer for England and wish them well and and appreciate the way they play football but I can’t do it 
I just HATE them so badly.
