I hope you don't have to "cope" any more with the Euro CUP, Aam Aadmi! The games are played in STADIA(not "stadiums").
I have been a fan of Dutch soccer back from 1988 during the days of Gullit, Van Basten and Rijkaard when the won the Euro Championship. Since then, they have always failed to rise to the occasion in big tournamnets.
However, this team is something else. It reminds us of the great Dutch team that mesmerized the world with Total Football in 1974. Excellent ball control, positioning, passing and most importantly counter attcaks and goals. I am sure in the history of football, no team has scored 3 goals and 4 goals respectively against super powers like Italy and France in bak to back games.
Lets all hope that this brilliant Dutch team continue in this fashion and give us a lot to cheer about.

You are right. But Portugal also looks very strong closely followed by Spain. I guess, one of these 3 will win the cup.

3 may look too big. So I guess, it is Portugal now that fat Louis Figo is gone, the team looks very energetic!

yes, you have a point..i am also looking at portugal vs. holland final..i am tempted to say the dutch will win, but the thought of portugal's coach scolari tells me that he's sure got something up his sleeve against the dutch for the final..!! but it will still be a good game of football..??

I have always been a "disheartened" Dutch fan. Their football is always great to watch, at times even more beautiful than Brasil.
