Here we go again!
Denmark v. Italy
Sweden v. Bulgaria
What are your expectations? The first match may be quite a struggle but I feel Italy has the advantage here. Even though Denmark have a few good players, nothing to match up to the Italy squad. We never know...... look what happened to Portugal!
For the second match, I really do not know what to say.... Bulgaria went to the semifinal in Euro '96 and they may do miracles again but Sweden has qualified which proves them to be a team to beat.

I think Italy will beat Denmark, it will be a lot closer than most people think probably a 1-0 win.
I'm not sure which way to go with the Sweden v Bulgaria match, seems a bit to close to call. I think Sweden have the better team but Bulgaria always seem difficult to beat and the Swedes sometimes seem to get into a dour game. I'm gonna sit on the fence and go for a 0-0 or 1-1 draw.

I'm afraid to say it but I think Denmark will get their ass kicked. I just saw the starting line up.
They re starting with Totti, Del Piero and Vieri in front. And Denmark has one of the slowest defences in this tournament..
So I think Italy will score 4 goals. But the good thing is that Denmark will score 5

I'm not so sure Olguy24, Denmark have some quality players, Gravesen, Rohmmedal, Tomasson are just a few. I expect Italy to win as i think they'll get to the finals, but it won't be easy. If Italy play with a defensive mentality like they did in Euro 2004, they will get caught out eventually like they did in the Euro 2004 final.

Arsenal,
Graver is out in this game. He has a 1 day suspension. That is some real shit to say it in a nice way.
Im afraid that Henriksen will be very slow today. But Laursen will do a great job in the defense together with Niclas Jensen and Thomas Helveg.
But I still think that Itlay will score a couple of goals.

Well...... Italy Denmark almost over, and it's 0-0.. Toti missed a free kick by a great distance from just outside the box. What do you lads think about the next match? Sweden or Bulgaria?

Buffon saved Italy - Denmark should have won. Totti must be banned surely by Uefa for that foul - he could have broken the defender's leg. BTW I thought Italy were shite, Totti played pretty poorly for someone with such an elaborate 'hairstyle' and Cannavaro was lucky to only get a yellow for that blatant shove to stop Rommedahl going clear on goal. Rommedahl was the best player IMHO.
I used to think the brain is the most fascinating part of my body. But, hey, who is telling me that?

Halftime........... Bulgaria played much better but Sweden got that 1 lucky break. In the second half I think that Bulgaria may be able to master something and come back

Totti that fag should've been sent off, what a disgusting foul. Denmark would've deserved to win, but Buffon was (like the Danish keeper) impressive.
Bulgaria - Sweden is interesting, the teams are pretty even, but the Swedish attackers make the difference. Boy are they fast, and Bulgaria should get rid of their offside trap asap.

Denmark played beautiful football against Italy. It was just a shame that they didn't score at least one or two goals.
But DAMN!! Sweden crushed Bulgaria. That was really nice to see. I hope Denmark will do the same thing if they play like they played against Italy.
I have a feeling that Sweden and Denmark will go thru to the next round.
