I think the defender had a part to play in that in fairness. He should be jumping out of the way but is just moping around there. Not exonerating Cech at all just that the defender didn't help.

Cech clearly has an issue with players close to him barging into him..

I'm not sure whether that is a pun at the Euro Crisis or not...

If this Greek team did first halfs they'd be dangerous.

The standard of referring has been from one extreme to another at the Euros. quite a few have been raelly bad, and then there was Victor Kassai who was excellent.

Webb was good too.

Seems their way.

Greece qualifed with
p10 7-3-0 14-5 , 24pts

If it had been just their half-time scores they'd be
p10 1-6-3 3-3 , 9pts

Did anyone hear Brian Kerr's analysis early when asked about the Czechs having the lead and how when you are 2-0 up it can be a dangerous lead and difficult to know what to do.

Kerr responded that it is better to be 2-0 up cos if you are only 1-0 up and you concede then it's 1-1 and you are drawing, but if you are 2-0 and concede one then you are still winning :pac:

I think he was struggling to avoid saying it was a stupid comment from Alkin.:D

Karagounis is really dislikeable.

Warsaw is gonna be a Warzone tonight after the game. Just hope no-one dies, just isn't worth it.

He's up there with Keane in the moany-little-bollix stakes.

BKC

Brought on and substituted in the same match.

Must be terribly demoralising for a player!

Renn

Such a weird shot to cut to.

Renn

Karagounis looks devastated

Well done to the Czechs, hanging in there.

If Poland lose tonight against Russia, the Czech v Poland game will be an immense battle.

He's one of the worst moaners I've ever seen.

Probably thinking back to what might've been had he scored the penalty against Poland.

He looked ready to thump someone:pac:

15 - Shots in Greece vs Czech Republic - the fewest in a European Championship Finals game since 1980

G.K.

Arshavin has to put in a defensive shift today.

Did Didi say he had inside information from the Spanish camp that they'll be playing 6 in midfield again? Was only half listening.

He said Dunphy had it.

And Dunphy said the barman said it.

I know I shouldn't but I hope Russia lose and go on to get knocked out,as unlikely as it is. It's the minority of their fans causing a lot of the trouble that has me thinking that way. Sick of looking at them already.

Call me naive - I'm sure it's not only the Russians that are at it. Also Im sure the majority of their fans are there purely for the football, but I'd just like to see the back of them as soon as possible.

COME ON POLAND

Suryavarman

Hopefully the fighting on the streets doesn't carry over into the stands.

GavRedKing

Violence was shocking. Some atmosphere inside the stadium, no matter what the result id fear for a small miniority of trouble makers after the game.

Rekop dog

The kick off always seems anticlimactic after that countdown imo.

Hopefully that's the worst of it and the cops will be on top of it.

Roamin' Polanski having a good start.

Lovely delivery there. Nearly 1-0 to the Poles.

Russia looking vulnerable against the set piece.

Hope Eastenders hurries up and finishes.

The polish players names barely fit on the jerseys, lively game so far!

What a setting!
