Wow, very impressive result for England, and especially Rooney. No doubt he's the star of the tourney.

England - Croatia was a great game.
I am happy France won, I don't feel they are ready to play Portugal, Greece should be easier but you never know.
Can't wait to see England - Portugal. If the Portuguese play as well as they did yesterday, England don't stand a chance.

What a game, not as good as Czech - Netherlands game, but England need to tighten up in defense and watch Figo and Ronaldo closely. Very tough, but a huge game. I do wonder if Greece could turn France over as they've got nothing to lose.

With the French performance lately, it could happen.

Sooo .. Denmark-Sweden. I betting on a 2-2 draw, not because of a big scandinavian comspiracy but because Denmark needs to win and Sweden needs to draw, so if it is half-way through 2nd half and the score is 2-2 I doubt either coach (or coaches in Swedens case) will take out 2 defenders to put 2 strikers on. Of course if either is in a scoring position neither team will miss on purpose. But it's only natural that if the score does become 2-2 neither team will have much incentive to force a goal, that's only natural.
Denmark and Sweden being neighbouring countries have played against either countries "arch-enemy" countless times, and usually with more than 2 goals scored. I think the actual 2-2 result is quite common when we've played.

Well there is an incentive, not meet the Czech in the quarter final, unless the Dane and Swedish are like the Greeks, just happy to make it so far, anything more would just be a nice bonus.
Knowing the sweeds (I work in a sweedish compagnie and been to sweeden a few times) I doubt that qualifying for the quarter final will be enough to make them proud.

Just finished figuring out the tie-breaker situation in Group C; it's complicated 
.
I'd have to say as long as Italy don't really screw up and not beat Bulgaria (which would be a shock but not unbelievable), Italy should advance. There are a lot of possible results between Sweden and Denmark, and most of them seem to lead to Italy advancing.

Sweden - Denmark should be a good game as both know that a win guarantees they go through, and of course there is a bit of national rivalry between the countries.

Does anybody know the exact rules on Yellow cards and when players miss a match after getting two cards? Will yellow cards from the group phase carry over to the knockout rounds?
