LOL good pick up!

Yeah we better win this one... I can still see us choking to make the quarters...

[Juventino]

I shall turn into an Oranje fan for a few hours, provided we can win against Romania.

[HMFC]

Hard to tip against the Dutch after their first up result. 2-0.

[Ignite_10]

[ronaldo07]

if italy beat romania, i'll go for france
if italy draw romania, i'll go for france
if italy lost to romania, i'll go for orange

[ruud]

robben fit for the french game

ill go for orange

[Piola]

per favore arancione

after dealing us a hammer to the head in the first game, at least beat the French in a similar way

[King Ledley]

Come on you Dutch

[pires7]

france 2-1

[Motley]

queen what ever makes you unhappy, France to win.

As long as queen and il duce lose interest due to there team not being there its a win for me.

[ronaldo07]

any team to win .. as long as not a draw ..

if france win, france and netherland to qualify i predict
if netherland win, netherland and romania to qualify ..
if draw, maybe italy to qualify

[medallion]

If netherlands win, how will they treat their last group game?? I'm predicting holland to win 3-2 and to let romania win their last group stage to stitch up both france and italy.

if they win, they will topped the group ..
i dont think they will gave 100% in the last game ..

INJURY FREE !!! Netherlands has a VERY INJURY PRONE PLAYER

Then again Romania beat them in qualifying and they'd probably want to get back for that. I can't see them tanking it, but Van Basten may give other players a run.

[CFC10]

Going for the Dutch in this one. Love watching them play, and the French are the French. Not even Maka can make them seem appealing in any way.

[ronaldo07]

GOAL !!
How good is Dirk Kuyt for holland

[CFC10]

Cracker header. France breached far too easily there...what a shame

Full time: Netherlands 3 France 1

The Dutch have won the group. Romania will take second if they can beat the Dutch in their final group match. A draw or a loss of one or two goals will also suffice for them if the other match ends in a draw, but if one of them win the winner will take that place.

Code: Select all

            P W D L F A  Pts
Netherlands 2 2 - - 7 1    6
Romania     2 - 2 - 1 1    2
France      2 - 1 1 1 4    1
italy       2 - 1 1 1 4    1

they release pigeons for each country and the first ones back to their own country go through

That was the most amazing thing i've ever seen. Most beautiful football match i've seen from any team of any time. Better than what i've ever seen from Real Madrid, Spain, Brazil, Argentina doesn't matter Netherlands today at times played at a level i've never seen before. Spectacular.
