I await a final Germany vs. Holland - due to I am from Austria, I hope that Holland will win!
(PS: it's right, that Austria now has not got a high quality team - but you should also consider the matches against Croatia, Poland and Germany - Austria was the better team against Croatia and Poland and as good as Germany - but we didn't make the goals :-( #$&*@!!)

but in general you have to admit that Austria isn't Euro material, and from what I heared is your coach not the best man for the job. Even the goalkeeper wasn;t decided at the start of the tournement

Well, that's it. We lost due to a very impressive performance of the russian squad. For the neutral spectator it must have been a great match, in which we didn't create anything. The russians were so sharp in the duels, we never stood a chance. The best team has won, sadly. Well, I hope Russia now win the tournement, they have the quality to do so.....but hey, so did we.....

If it helps in any way, aside from Italy (and Portugal because they had Felipão, but now they don't anymore, so I'm back to not caring for them even one bit), I'd root for Holland any day!

Well sorry for the bump but i watched all the games while i was on holiday and wasnt able to post. Argh! Stupid holland under achieving again! And after such a promising start! WTF?

Anyway glad italy went out and i felt spain thoroughly deserved the win. Germany have an awful defense.

So you should be! Youre country let me down! You were my adopted England. Although in a way it was EXACTLY like supporting England in a major competition. We always lose at the quarters when our team is good enough to win. So i guess it fitted right in!

yeah, but most times we win because of bad luck, or a bad performance. This time we could see that Russia was the better team. They were keen on not giving us any space, so they played an awesome match. But they spoiled all their strenghts, which was shown vs Spain....
