So is anyone catching this? Hosted by Ukraine and Poland, I think were in to the second stage of matches of the group.

There's notably (and quite rightly) a lack of the ''England Hype'' this time around, what with the lowest attendance for the tournie in a while, and the general expectation of the team at an all time low (hell I thought France would destroy them).

Personally, I peg Germany to win the tournament, having a solid back four, and an array of good attacking players. Still I can't help but have a little hope that England may prevail.

Where can I catch it on TV? From the States, here.

^Hmm, I'm not sure. I know you can watch highlights on youtube. Some sites do live streams but it varies depending on the match.

I was on twitter recently and I caught wind of some news about a player saying he's hoping that there aren't any gay athletes playing. You can pretty much guess how the public reacted to that.

ESPN has been broadcasting it both on TV and on their site. People have been steaming the matches on sites like Ustream as well.

Yeah I was about to say ESPN, you can also check the coverage Fox Sports does at 10pm ET.

I watch the EPL in Fox Sports and ESPN, and I've seen a few Euro 2012 matches on ESPN too. I support Portugal in the finals since they are my nationality. They are playing today! Hope we beat Denmark!

Denmark were lucky. =/

Netherlands had a pretty bad game, I expected Robben and van Persie to do some magic and they never did. In fact, they were leaning towards clowns than heroes in that match. How van Persie missed the ball to fire a shot away I don't know. And this is EPL's top scorer.

Still, I'm not saying this is bad news... *wink wink* ;)

And in Europe too. That makes it all the more daft.

Unlucky Denmark, I almost thought they had Portugal too, but for Verier late strike. Pretty good game actually, didn't expect the danes to play so well.

The Dutch on the other hand have been awful. From a side that were World Cup runners up on 2 years ago, there performances agaisnt the Danes and Germany was embarrassing.

I live in Denmark but likes German soccer.

Great games today!

Denmark vs Portugal was pretty intense and dramatic, with Denmark recovering from a 0:2 disadvantage. But the portuguese team won thanks to their "Joker", who scored the final, and winning goal of the match.

And my personal favorite, Germany, won against the Netherlands with 2:1. I am actually glad that the Germans stepped up their game, and I am also sure that they will become stronger while progressing in this Championship. They almost do that in every single big championship

Now, with 6 points, the Germans are pretty much qualified for the quarterfinals!

I live in Denmark but likes German soccer.

So who are you going to support in the Denmark-Germany game?

[Chibi]

Heh, I haven't been following this at all. I've been a bit slack on the football this year, due to it being broadcast in the middle of the night here. Hard to catch if you have stuff to do the next day.
Shall be cheering for Germany, as I always do. Hear they won 2-1 last night against the Netherlands, so there's no doubt we're going to the next round. Deutschland vor! ;D

[El Driver]

I guess I lost the internet to Ming Ming Love

Though it was an exciting game, I guess that's why I love European soccer

Though sadly even in European Soccer games violence like this occurs, I understand having passion for your team but this is no way of showing it: http://sports.yahoo....nvestigate.html
