The Dutch finally exercised the PK demons...Well, for that reason only, I think most people liked it that they got through. Although I did not care much about their team in the recent years (too much ego and no team spirit at all), I must admit it was my favorite team in the Cruyff years (heck that was my nickname as a little kid, I still remember crying for several days when they lost the 78 World Cup final to Argentina). So, it should be a great semifinal game against the hosts Portugal and I hope they kill each other:-)

The Czechs continue to impress, they assasinated Denmark with three goaks without breaking a sweat...Scary how good they have been in this tournament.

The Greek dream/fantasy/outofthisworld experience continues. This TEAM is really something this year, the way they have played has been phenomenal. Right now, their mental state is "Hey, we eliminated France, why not go all the way?" I must admit I feel the same way. 90 minutes against the Czechs baby and we are in the final, why not? The celebrations continue for every breathing creature with Greek blood...It's like we are all in a state of trance, this beats even the dream 1987 run to the European Basketball championship!!
