Wow, this is a high-quality game so far, great!

Then again, I might be wrong (Netherlands 2 - 0 up) Edit: uh oh, bad defending by the Dutch: 2 - 1

I'm afraid so...

Great result for Latvia, a poor performance by the Germans, and a very poor game.

These are the qualification rules: If two or more teams finish equal on points after all the group matches have been played, the following criteria shall be applied to determine the ranking: 1. Number of points obtained in the matches between the teams in question; 2. Goal difference resulting from the matches between the teams in question; 3. Number of goals scored in the matches between the teams in question (if more than two teams finish equal on points); 4. Goal difference in all the group matches 5. Number of goals scored in all the group matches; 6. Coefficient of points from the last two qualifying competitions for the final rounds of the 2000/02 FIFA World Cup and 2002/04 UEFA European Football Championship (points gained divided by the number of matches played); 7. Fair Play conduct of the teams (in the final tournament); 8. A drawing of lots. Additionally, if two teams meeting in one of the last round of group matches have the same number of points, the same goal difference and the same number of goals, and if this match stands at a draw at the end of normal time, the ranking of these two teams will be determined by kicks from the penalty mark, rather than the criteria outlined above.

Same here.

Why don't you do a search? I found this on the USPS website.

Yep, great game and a correct result, all in all. You're right about the apparent fragility of the Italians and their fouls... Disgusting.

Amazing how the Italians let the Swedes get back into the game in the second half: 1 - 1 Unbelievable...

Excellent idea

Yeah, but I don't mind if they have my info; I just don't feel like giving PayPal free access to my account. I trust (to continue the example) Hans; I don't trust a faceless corporate entity like PayPal. But your idea of a checking account just for PayPal is something I hadn't thought of before; I'll have to consider that. Errr... Thank you

Italy 1, Sweden 0 at half time. I was pleasantly surprised by the Italians, who played much more like a team than in their first game against Denmark. The Swedes started well, but they came under increasing pressure as the first half progressed. Let's hope the second half will not be as boring as in today's earlier game...

It wasn't that bad, well, OK, the second half was, but the first half was quite interesting. Denmark should have scored more, but the 2 - 0 result was OK. Beautiful second goal!

I fully agree. Euro bank transfers are free in the Netherlands.

Hiroshi Tanno takes PayPal, International Money Order and cash payments; no credit cards, though. He's in Fukuoka City, Japan. Hiroshi can supply all currently available Japanese jazz CDs and LPs, whether they're listed on his website or not.

I love The Way Ahead. Beautiful Album. I finally got this one (wonderfully sounding Japanese version.. but no bonus tracks (why? why?) - a great one. Probably the best Shepp I've heard (I don't have too much, I have to admit). You don't need the domestic (U.S.) reissue's bonus tracks, they're totally out of place in my opinion.

Best place to buy the Japanese "Blue Note Works" TOCJs, the Japanese Rudy Van Gelder TOCJs and the new Japanese 24-bit remastered TOCJs: hiroshi@earlyrecords.com.

That's exactly the impression I got.

I agree (again...) In my opinion the Danes played the best football so far.

France just equalized, very poor defending by Croatia. The second half is much more entertaining than the first half was.

You were right Brownie. It was not too comlicated for the English. you must have watched an other game than I did then.... I agree, the English were having lots of problems with the Swiss, at least in the game I was watching... The 3 - 0 result was exaggerated. Then again it cannot it be all that bad if you play poorly & win 3-0. We can play alot better than that. Don't want to offend you, but I haven't seen any of that yet, not against the French and certainly not tonight.
