Slick Mongoose Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 What a game. What a game. :stunned: Can't see Turkey going any further, though. They weren't actually any good. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kve Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Poor, poor Petr Cech being the best keeper in the world and all that. He won't be sleeping well tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Mongoose Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Nice to see that mighty Portugal were gracious in victory and allowed the hosts to beat them to save face. A generous and magnanimous gesture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mashiara Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I have to say well done to Turkey. Amazing come-back. The best game I've seen, as far as the last 15 minutes are concerned. I didn't follow the Portugal game, I was amazed to see the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Inquisitor Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 By the way, thar was an excellent goal by Nihat. Lovely goal. Nihat is the new Ataturk... Ataturk reborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altherion Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 That was probably one of the weirdest 20 minutes of football ever. The three goals in the last 15 minutes is one thing, but the goalie getting red carded and a player taking his place!? Utterly bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's going to be impossible to deal with for a while. He's really happy about this. He just doesn't share my pain about Greece. :( And he keeps saying "they are my team! come on!" I blame this board.

Bastard of Godsgrace Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Shit, what a game. Poor Czechs. They too early become convinced their victory is assured, though. Swiss defeat Portugal 2-0. Fortunately it didn't matter, but it may be bad sign for Germans before tomorrow match against Austria ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Inquisitor Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 What was bizarre was the player who had to play as goalie began to pray to Allah and to raise his hands towards the skies... ...talk about confidence in one's abilities... hahahaha... excellent match! I love football!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theMountainGoat Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Of course its a bad sign for Germany! The Austrians will be being defeating of the dispicable Germans and their bad haircuts. Yar! Then the Austrians will go on to beat the Portugal ego on their high horse. Yar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I admit, Tuncay looking up to the sky with arms spread was very, very funny. Insane game. Not a _great_ game, because really, it was a cavalcade of follies towards the end, but certainly very, very dramatic. What was Volkan thinking? I'm betting on Turkey falling out in the quarters in large part because they now have to use their reserve goalkeeper, whoever he is. As to the Portugal-Switzerland match, I don't see how anyone can say Portugal was robbed. They more or less gave the match away. What I don't get is the bevy of yellow cards -- including one on Gelson Fernandes (of Switzerland, I had to double check) _after_ the match was concluded. What happened there?

Edda van Heefmstra Ruston Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Ran - if you can work out why he got a yellow, maybe you can do the same for the Czech sub who got one while on the bench.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dharma Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 What the f*ck just happend?! I had nearly all my accumalated euro 2008 winnings on Portugal and Switzerland drawing and on Turkey losing. Within 20 minutes I went from a great summer bonus to... nothing. Where... Where did my money go? :cry: As to the actual matches, only saw the last 20 minutes of the Turkey - Czech game. That was some damned weird stuff. Great third goal for Turkey, and amazing excitement that last minute when they had to put on a midfielder in goal. Why exactly did their goalkeeper do that?!
