Hi

I watched the game last night. Not the best advertisement for attacking football by the Czechs thought plenty of inter-passing movements that looked pretty but got nowhere.

Portugal always looked more dangerous especially when Ronaldo had the ball. He looked a class above the rest and IMHO his last two games must put him in line as one of the best players in the tournament.

Not that Portugal are merely a one man team. Nani often looks great and makes some defence-breaking runs. His final ball as normal leaves a little ( no.....a lot) to be desired. The full backs attack really well and they are certainly improving with each game.

Tonight Germany will need to be near their best to beat a workmanlike Greece. I expect them (Germany) to have too much energy,organisation and firepower to see them home comfortably.

Funny team though the Greeks. Who would have fancied them to win the Title in 2004 eh ???

Could an upset be on the cards??

cheers
