The best publicity for the game of football....the matches of Holland.
I can't really understand how Holland managed to beat Italy and France in such a way. There was some luck involved...but not too much actually (the goal of the French was offside, and Makalele should have gotten a double red card).
Both France and Italy are now dependent on the Dutch...If Romania wins from Holland, France and Italy are out. It is funny to hear the whining of two teams that are generally not known for their fair play.
I hope our coach does not take any risk and leaves some of our star players on the bench.
The quarter finalists so far; Spain, Croatia, Portugal, Holland. Likely Germany will advance and I would think the Czechs, the Swedes and Romania.
Without being to optimistic I think the dutch have a good chance to reach the finals (via Sweden/Russia and then Romania/Spain (Italy/France).
