Germany's players will need steel helmets for protection when Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo lines up to take free kicks in their Euro 2012 Group B match in Lviv on Saturday, Germany assistant coach Hansi Flick said.

Haha, oh wow..

 

[Tha Robbertster]

Now I'm starting to get excited. Shame I can't watch the first match but hey, the more important match is tomorrow anyway

 

[Wilbur]

Gonna say:

Poland 3-1 Greece
Russia 1-1 Czech Republic
Netherlands 3-2 Denmark
Germany 3-1 Portugal
Spain 1-1 Italy
Ireland 0-0 Croatia
France 2-0 England
Ukraine 1-1 Sweden

 

[Wilbur]

Wilbory plz

But it's the Dutch, you never win anything. You're almost as bad as us at winning things.

Of course, England will win everything

 

[Arjen]

We won second place two years ago!

 

[Funky Papa]

Is there a special award for choking?

 

[Wilbur]

We won second place two years ago!

The moral victory was yo - wait, no it wasn't.

 

[Kem0sabe]

I just hope portugal (pepe) gives as good as we will get from the dutch. these games always end up as on pitch battles, stupid players.

 

[Firemind]

88 never forget

 

[criesofthepast]

Yeah, I guess Spain winning 3:0 or 4:0 would be more realistic.

Pfft you wish. Buffon won't give up a goal the entire group stage.

 

[Wilbur]

88 never forget

66 never forget. We're one hit wonders, equivalent to Denmark.

I posted this in the football thread but it's relevant here too, if this hasn't already been done:

Made a Picklive league for the Euros if anyone's interested in joining. Similar to fantasy football except it seems you can pick whichever players you want for your starting 11, and the points and league table for the game update live in play. At least, that's what used to happen, the last time I played it was a while ago.

Anyway, if anyone's interested: League link (free entry)

This runs for the whole tournament, but we could always do one just for the knockout stages if this is too short notice.

The main difference to Fantasy Football is that in Picklive you get points for pretty much everything:

 

[bjaelke]

Gonna say:

Poland 3-1 Greece
Russia 1-1 Czech Republic
Netherlands 3-2 Denmark
Germany 3-1 Portugal
Spain 1-1 Italy
Ireland 0-0 Croatia
France 2-0 England
Ukraine 1-1 Sweden

You reckon we'll net 2 against the Dutch? You do know our lone striker is Bendtner, right?

 

[Pacbois]

Go France !

 

[Firemind]

Rommedahl can cause trouble for our left back, assuming he can play for more than half an hour.

 

[Chuckie]

I'd say 2-1...maybe 3-1 if we score very early.

Poland 0-2 Greece
Russia 1-1 Czech Republic
Netherlands 3-0 Denmark
Germany 1-0 Portugal

I'm judging the greatest player in the world against the Dutch defence.

Done! Went for France as top scorer (Benzema), Germany France Spain and Netherlands as semi finalists, Poland/Germany/Spain/France as group winners and Germany as overall.

 

[Clegg]

I hope the French have another glorious squad meltdown ala 2010.

I laughed and laughed.

Cheating bastards got exactly what was coming to them.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Poland 2 - 0 Greece

Moral victory to the team that dominates more.

Picklive league deadline is 5PM GMT I think (about 3 hours from now). Could be fun as you get points for tackles, interceptions, passes etc (basically everything) as well as goals and assists.

This is not fantasy football.

Rommedahl can cause trouble for our left back, assuming he can play for more than half an hour.

He can neither cross nor score.

Boing boing
