to be pleased Spain and Italy

[hope004]

are in the Euros final.
At lease it means my team (Ireland) lost to the best teams.

Well it's all over now!

Looking forward to the world cup next!

Yes but Ireland still played terribly...as did England in their last game so in the grand scheme of things it doesn't really matter.

I can't believe Spain beat them 4-0 though

Apparently that's the most any team have ever beaten another by in the finals.

I don't know if it's maternal instinct but I have a soft spot for balottelli ESP after his little tantrum at the end

That was an entertaining game, albeit a tad one sided. The score was a fair reflection of the way both teams used the ball. At times the Italians were chasing shadows.

Was it Alan Partridge who used the phrase 'Liquid football', 'cos that's what it was. :o

i heard this story about Balotelli that tickles me, he got pulled over by the police, and was found with £500 cash in his back pocket...

'why do you carry cash'? asks the constable
flashing a broad grin at Plod, he replied 'Because i am very rich.'
