I just saw Italy beat Somalia or something in this big tournament across the seas. I gotta say, it was a pretty interesting watch!

It's been a great tournament so far.
Netherlands bottling it and losing all three games despite being one of the favourites, both hosts being eliminated in the first group stage, England defying the odds and somehow qualifying top of their group only to lose on penalties (AGAIN, they have a 1-5 record at pens now).
Ronaldo is finally scoring (sadly for me, I strongly dislike him), Spain proving that they're still top dogs, Germany pretty much pwning everyone that comes in their path, the Czechs losing 4-1 in their first game and still winning their group, fucking GREECE somehow making it to the quarter finals, Denmark showing that they aren't pushovers and did extremely well, Ireland being the worst team but having the best support, big name players showing up (Ibra, Gomez, Balotelli) showing up yet other big players (France, basically) being poor.
Semi finals are going to be very interesting. I predict Spain and Germany to go through. Then I think Germany will get revenge on the final of four years ago and the World Cup semi two years ago to win the tournament. Now that England are out the fear that they might win the tournament is over and I can enjoy the tournament as a true neutral.
