Hall of Famer
yes, russia and poland have no non-whites in their roster (except 1 russian tatar but you won't see the difference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marat_Izmailov )
strange match
greece gave up 2 goals in 5 minutes, it could be because their 2 central defenders can't play (1 is injuried, and the other got a ridiculous red card in the first match)
they didn't gave up, but there was a disallowed goal (maybe wrongfully disallowed) and another offside were the greeks were about to score but actually he was not offside
it was annoying to see the referee interfere so much in the game
greece can still qualify though and i believe they will make it
a draw would have been deserved in that match
i remember that in the last euro champs cech did the same against turkey, his team lost because of this

Hansen – who is paid £1.5million a year for his expert analysis on the BBC show – predicted Spain would be joined by Germany, Holland and Portugal to make up the final four.
But that is impossible as the last three teams are all in the same group - and only TWO of them can qualify for the knockout stages.
A has Balotelli ranked as the 21st best player at the Euros.
Bucking the trend. Croatia's national team will *not* be visiting Auschwitz. Instead, a memotrial of communist crimes will be visited.
"We won’t be visiting Auschwitz, but it’s almost 90% certain that we will visit some memorial centre and pay respects to those Polish officers killed in Katyn forest,” the president of the Croatian Football Federation Vlatko Markovic said, June 8.

Slaven Bilic played the music of an ultra-nationalist Croatian rock band to his players in the team dressing room after their 1-0 victory over Austria.
"Our players were not entirely satisfied," said Bilic "so I turned on the CD player and told them to sing because after all we won."
Bilic, who himself plays in a rock band called, Rawbau didn't say which Thompson song was played but the band's radical lyrics and controversial comments from lead singer Marko Perkovic led to the group being banned from performing in the Netherlands in 2004.
Merah, who claims to be part of Al Qaida, is thought to have killed seven people - three paratroopers and three children and a teacher from a Toulouse Jewish school.
has anyone else already grown tired of the media's incessant whining about the "racist" chants toward black players in the tourney? pfft. as a White athlete, i've been called all manner of offensive names by opposing blacks in my life, yet "somehow" that's not a big deal. conversely, the thought police mustn't allow the precious little black angels to have their sensitive feelings hurt, so that is a priority for "law" enforcement.
meanwhile, these precious black angels are raping, robbing, and murdering Whites around the world, yet the media makes not a peep. sounds "right" to me. :mmph:
At the 77', Ronaldo misses an easy 1 on 1 with the goalie. He looks lost.Ronaldo is really bad for Portugal, i wonder why. he needs to be playing in a lopsided league, with a VERY superior and stacked team to be any good, it seems.
Total disaster as the Negro scores ... huge letdown by Denmark.
