[Fox You Forest]

I'm still on for 2-2. Looking unlikely though

France were shit!

Tevez, "The best 3 players at the moment, Torres, Ronaldo and....."pauses" Wesley Sneidjer"

All i can remember is C-man cracking up. (On the way to Sheff U away)

Touché

[Number 6]

On the off the pitch thing, does this mean a goalkeeper can jump behind his line before balls are played through to make the strikers offside? To be honest, I think unless the player has gone off for treatment then he should still be considered part of the play.

Dear oh dear!!!

Romania could have upset the french in what was a boring game!!

The dutch are awesome against a lack lustre Italian side, i am obviously going for Italy because my missus.... She just smashed our Sky remote when they conceded that excellent second goal!!

I have not seen a Italian side this poor since the Trap era when they were just defend defend..... Lippi established a attacking mentality and now on this game... i am not sure what approach they are going with, they are lazy, no shape and they are giving the ball away far to much!!

The dutch have impressed me, well done to them!!

Pleat: Bad challenge from Mazzerazzi

Is it just me, or does that not make sense?

[Fox You Forest]

I too have no idea.

example: say Buffon, seeing that Ruud is about to be played in ahead of the last man, steps behind his line, putting himself off the field of play and making Ruud only have 1 defender between him and the goal when the ball is played.

[Benji]

I've not quite known anything to infuriate me more than ITV adverts and David fking Pleat giving ridiculously inept commentary

So your asking a linesman to look at the defensive line the attacker and the goalie.

I now see what your saying but its a bit far fetched.

[Benji]

Let's talk nothing more of the offside goal, Italy's decision to start diving after the first tackle on 3 minutes was enough to make the linesman favour a dutch victory

[sdb]

worst performance i've seen from Pirlo. Gattuso too probably

[Asha]

3-0 van bronkhorst

[lavrentis]

Well I didn't expect this

[MC Prussian]

What a goal, what a play, what a game.

What a delight after tonight's first one.

Yep complete opposites brilliant game this.

[davieG]

Italy have certainly had enough chances to get back into the game this half.

Anyone predict 3-0

[syston_fox]

Holland - two simply brilliant goals!! Deserve this win and Ive been really impressed by Van Bronkhurst!

Great effort onto the bar!
