Euro 2008 — Running Thread

WTF is this?

 

OK, good call.

 

In the end, nothing at all. Let's go to extra time.

 

Looked like the TV on the far side of the fan zone is a few seconds ahead. That's gotta be frustrating for the ones on the near side.

 

They are, btw, incorrect in calling Turkey's comeback a comeback victory. Officially, it's a draw.

 

Technically, yes. Now, do the Dutch, who have already used all three substitutions, start to tire in extra time?

 

There's been no shortage of late game drama in this tournament. It was about time the Dutch scored on a free kick. They had two really good chances, their only chances to score, in the first half and just missed. Good call by the referee to reverse the yellow call. That would have been a weak call, but the ball was out of bounds. Let's go into OT.

 

Well, they should be well-rested. At least they'd better be, for what they appear to have given up to rest everyone in the final group game.

 

That's what I though as well. But they say that he might be bothered by a bad hamstring. That better be the reason or Van Basten has made a bad call not putting him in.

 

Zenit St. Petersburg is going to have a lot of teams knocking on their door about Arshavin after this tournament.
