I don't know if any of the soccer guys on this board is watching this game, but this is a soccer match that would make people who hate soccer love the game.
The action is non stop up and down the field. The goalies are makign stop after stop. Being down the whole second half, the Dutchmen put ina header from Van Nistolroy. This ia turning out to be a classic.

This ia turning out to be a classic. Yes I like soccer a lot but ONLY the EPL ,Euro Cup,World Cup and Olympic soccer. Those matches are very good and those are the matches I try to get non soccer fans to watch,cuz I think they would enjoy that brand of soccer. On a side note a Ukrainian friend of mine put $100 on Russia at 2000 to 1 before the Euro Cup 2008 started and needs a lot of luck but if Russia can win today and then one more match after that for the Cup he will win $200,000 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Russia and Turkey were def. the feel good story of the Euro.
Now it's spain v. germany in the finals. This is going to be a good match. I think too many people are underestimating the germans. Spain has a great offense full of strikers who can put the ball in the net from anywhere. Germany has the edge in the middle of the field. If they can control the middle of the field, as i expect them too, i think germany wins 1-0. If ti comes down to goalkeeping, germany wins. Lehman is a better keeper then Cassials. I can't wait for Saturday.
and that sucks about your friend dugga. Pretty nice for coming as close as they did.

Yeah but my buddy had a lot of fun spending the $200,000 he was gonna win,he is not upset,he knew it was a long shot to say the least but he had about 20 of us watching and believing since it was 0-0 at half !!!!!!!! Hey one other thing the final between Germany and Spain is on Sunday ,not Saturday,OK ??? It is on ABC, match final starts at 2:45pm EST. For non soccer fans just give it a try !!!!!!!!!
