Journals
Cuz my last journal got deleted (god knows why, it was a normal journal), I'll make a new one, being my general opinion on this EuroCup.
Tbh this EuroCup is one of the weirdest I've seen so far (not that it were many I've seen). I mean, look for example at Holland, being a real underdog. They unexpectedly made it to the quarter finals, with brilliant play, and then they lose against Russia in a match played with stupidity from the Dutch side beyond my imagination. You can ask yourself, was their achievement to the quarter finals just dumb luck, or did they deserve to win against Russia, or did their ego just grew too big?
Then there is this match Germany against Turkey. Turkey, being one of the greatest underdogs of the whole tournament, made it to the half-finals with a broken team, and then get outplayed by a team which was actually weaker the whole match. Turkey deserved the win imo, although I'm still happy for the germans. Also, this whole match was fucked up because of the shitty referee, can't even imagine how this dude got to be a referee on this level of football...
I can keep on going like this, nearly every match so far has had it's flaws and weirdnesses. It's just a weird EC in my opinion, and at the WorldCup I'd really like to see something else, because I can't be arsed to even give the slightest crap about luck-based nation-level football.

did you even read this journal?
south korea 02 = turkey this ec
see the trend?
turkey sucked against cro...germany against tur
? :((((((
oh and nothing would change it, we are just created to hate ourselves (at least you are the one who believes in it, I don't), so go on - there are still really nice people in Germany, that's why I just hate people like you, not the whole country (like you do)
i just tried to say that i dont rly care about inetguys, so i cant love nor hate them like u said "...created to hate ourselves each other" i can only love or hate ppl i rly know irl...
maybe this professor thingie was a bit exaggerated, but the bavarian 'abitur' is rly difficult to the other german ones & imo harder than all the polish graduations(leave out university)..
dno if its written understandable, but im too lazy to read it another time:/
and btw mabye use "polish", looks better in my opinion...
edit: btw, nice hearing that from YOU xD
i see them everywhere in israel !
they must be burned :D
A naked obese football playing lion
germany has been playing like crap in the group stage, so why whould they play any better now (ok, they did vs portugal...)
i can keep going on like this but blablabla...

And I disagree I think France had a skilled squad and they were favorites over NL when the tourney started.
Every nation has their own great players, so that argument of yours is completely wrong :/
now i'm getting emo again ..

its the best tournament ive seen so far, way more interesting with high level of playing.
guys, face it, its not 60. or 80. of XX century. big powers of football are not france italy germany russia anymore (well some of them are still strong), but its countries like czech rep., croatia, turkey (romania didnt go out of the group unfortunately, but are also technically skilled and stuff) which are one of the best teams around.
on such level of football (teams that qualified to the euro2008) EVERY SCORE IS POSSIBLE. you are rising brews (i mean the hair above the eyes, too lazy to check if its correct word) that netherlands lost to russia? why should they win against a better team (yes, even against span russia played very well, just made few mistakes, and then counter attacks - happens)?
turkey's case is the one i'd afford to call "strange". they were always good and stuff but this year they had definitely very nice season as you can see. face it - if it happens in 3 matches, it cant be lotto. no its not only luck that they were able to score those goals.
turkey decided to defend, but as they have weak defence (without cervet it gets even worse) they lose goals. yes, switzerland players attacked as they had to, they were playing in front of their nation etc etc... also there was rain involved, turks cant play at rain, it was visible. the water was gone - turks could finally play their football, technical style, not just "kick and run" on rain. they can attack, they can do it well, and when they do it i enjoy watching them. they scores 1st goal. they were still attacking, match was open, and now: where is the luck that arda shot greatly? ofc he could miss the goal, but he shot nicely and scores for 2-1. this way we can call every goal luck. you mean the additional time? switzerland was so stupid to let them do so... then there was czech game. turks defended again, they got punished: 0:2. but then, czechs stopped running. they thought they have already won the match. turks attacked. arda shot again very important goal. then there was lucky action for 2-2, cech made a big mistake and it nihat had easy chance to score. everybody was thinking about next 30 minutes, but not turks. turks kept attacking. perfect pass to nihat and he shot (riskly) and scores for 3-2. ez bash. now croatia. both sides didnt open for whole match. yes, croatians are better than turks, but still they prefered to stay closed and not risk. finally 1-0 in the end for croatians (wp rustu) and what? they have already went to bathrooms. but wait, the match isnt over, turks had 3 minutes or smth, so rustu kicking ball as far as he can, croatians kick the ball by head but not too hard, it fells next to semih legs... shoot. you can call that luck, yes, but wont you instead ask croatians what were they thinking/doing? and now german match. 2-1 for germany and turks attack again - '85 minute and its 2-2, unbelievable. tonight i was 100% sure that its not a luck. turks CAN attack and do it well. face it.
lololol i wrote it :D normally i write correct english, its just 3am and im so tired and angry, got no power to care about language style. mixed past simple with present simple, didnt rly know what way i want to write, nvm =]
Would love to see an equal fight between Russia and any other european 'top' team like, , , ...
