Nah uh. Built up tension is the best motivator... or so I hope.

I'm not surprised by the result. I predicted 2-1 for the Dutch before the game, but still I hope ITALY will "somehow" manage to get "win" against France & Romania and go through to the quarter final. Congrats to Netherlands, they played good football.

They aren't cheaters, they just know the arts of the game. And this is a part of every game. Referee's wrong decisions, false appeal by the players...these are all part of the game as long the game wouldn't be completely monitor or controlled by the TV camera or computers and which would definitely destroy the beauty of the game.

btw, in case of 'cheating'...there are also so many heavy weight European teams who used to do it more successfully than Argentinians. ;)

Agreed,the spanish are always good to watch but usually lack the bottle to go all the way.Much as it pains me to say it,I think the Germans will win the tournament.:mad:
Going back to to Ronaldo,I would also like to express my deep loathing of the odiuos little goat botherer,he is undeniably talented but also undeniably an arrogant egotistical twat.Don't even get me started on that smackhead cheat Maradona ....

What is the lack of love for ze Germans ?? I mean, I'm not crazy about them either, but their game has really opened up and they're very entertaining to watch.

Ahhhh... how refreshing! Someone else who hates Ronaldo just as much as I do... but, you're british, so it's understandable, if not expected. ;)

Alright... I will investigate the matter further to see if ze German hate is founded. ;)

Now THAT, I would have and still would pay good money to see... winking bastard. :p

To mention the game going on right now, if this is the way the Greeks won the championship last time, then it's a damn shame. Boring, closed game because they simply refuse to play. I hope the Swedes will be able to overcome their "tactics".
