Sigh,i cannot believe it.

Well when Owen scored the first goal,i knew in my heart that england were going to loose.

Having said that the england v portugal match was more like

Portugal midfield v English defence.

The english midfileders for some reason didnt play and so we defended deep and there is only one outcome from that.

The portuguese played with more confidence,indeed had more possession but ultimiatley didnt create many chances which would have been expected of them.

The english defence defended resolutely i think and between them had great team spirit.

Many of the english made a big deal(still are) about the disallowed goal but in football sometimes you get good decisons and sometimes bad.

Like the Italians we get many bad decisons our way.

Ahh well i bet the winner of the Checz/Greece match will win Euro 2004.

Those two teams for me have been the two ones to look out for.
