We've reached the semis...

And the Czech Republic have won their match 3-0 against the Danes... once again... the Danes have failed to live up to expectations and crash out of the tournament... so the semi-finals look like this now... portugal vs holland on thurs mornin and greece vs czech on fri mornin... oh wow... my juices are juz flowing when i talk abt the 1st semi-final... it's gonna be a cracker... history shows tat in the previous few tournaments... the host nation has nv made it past the semi-finals... but then again... holland din win a penalty shootout for so long till they beat sweden... so i dun think the history books will have a part to play in this... in truth... anything can happen in this match... egos might flair and cards cud be flashed... the dutch hate losin... and this feudin team cud really take it to the hosts... but portugal are no pushovers... this is the semis and no team is here on a free pass... under the influence of scolari the portugese are a totally diff team compared to previous tournaments... they hold the ball more often now than their opponents do... but on thurs mornin... i think the dutch will be attackin more as their total football will show... but all in all... it'll look like an even match against 2 exquisite teams... my prediction... holland to score 1st... but lose the plot in the 2nd half... *nobody understands*
