Germany v Greece

[dessiato]

Germany should have already won this.

 

[JimW]

Germany do look like you could score past them, despite going forward so well.

 

[friedaweed]

They can't hold out for an hour more of this.

Be great if they did and extra time and then won on penos

 

[JimW]

Just had an Greek effort

ETA: Best watch out on this thread as probably got that time lag still on this stream

 

[friedaweed]

Skin of their teeth

 

[friedaweed]

Why are the Greeks wearing black armbands?

 

[editor]

For all their superiority, Germany can still be quite sloppy on the ball., A better team could have punished them for that.

Yep, sort of what I was getting at above.

 

[editor]

Love the way the Greek goalie doesn't so much save as get in the way.

Until Germany score, of course.

For their former coach who died on Monday

There is a delay. Came a bit against the run of play

Yup can't believe the Krauts scored from one lucky break For 39 minutes there we were in dreamland

How people can be calling this a classic European Championship with two shite teams like Greece and the Czech Republic in the quarter finals.

Cos they qualified and then got through the group stages and now their in the quarter finals innit.
I think both nations have actually won it before have they not?

ETA I don't think many folk have called it a classic championship but it's definitely been a good torno do you not think?

You'd have thought that after all that effort they have put in so far, they might have given it a real go on the big night. Rather than playing for penalties.

 

[JimW]

Only half time; might of thought hang in and try and nick on on the break (had a couple of goes). Now they might go for it.

 

[editor]

Come on Greece. Get a freak goal.

 

[friedaweed]

GET THE FUCK IN

 

[goldenecitrone]

Frankly, I am amazed.

 

[belboid]

Go baby go!
