    I really didn't think Portugal was going to make it out of the group B, with Germany and Netherlands pulling through. But given Netherlands lack of execution today, they might get a chance to pull through.

    Am looking forward to the game on Monday. EN-GER-LAND!

    I expect even if someone else wins the overall tournament, John Terry will take credit for it...

    LMAO!!!

    the danes are indeed holding their own from what i've seen

    I'm on Pacific time too and it amazes me how easily i can wake up early for games (430 for EPL).

    Missed the footie the past few weeks, Norwich supporter here and of the England team, though pretty bloody weak looking gotta admit.

    Will watch all the matches I can, this match need a bit of Van Persie magic, bit disappointed in the Dutch quite fancied them.

    All I care is that England beats Greece. I have a friend from high school who is Greek and he's being mighty obnoxious. Need to take him down a few pegs. We're watching on the west coast.

    Typical Holland. So much talent, very little ambition. Especially in the second half. Looking forward to Germany-Portugal later.

    Forza Azzurri!

    I thought Greece would be all over Poland. Poland playing a great game!

    England will win Euro ;)

    I'm not a massive football fan but I watch internationals and I can't recall a time when the expectation for England was so low. It seems like every other tournament English fans have expected a win and the team have failed to deliver. But this tournament there don't seem to be many fans at all that feel that England will progress past the group stages. And, to be honest, the low expectation feels pretty good to me.

    I don't think, considering the way England has played during the last years... my hopes are high. And now if Germany could just get a move on ... we shall not lose against Portugal (no offense :P)

    Being an England supporter is a lot like playing the lottery, you don't really expect to win, but you still watch the balls drop, lol.

    But yeah, you're right, not much buzz for England this time round :(
