More on Euro 2008

As I mentioned above, the Euro 2008 competition has reached the quarter-final stage, and the first quarter-final was held last night. It was between Germany and Portugal, and Germany won 3-2.

Traditionally, Germany is known for performing badly at the beginning of competitions, but somehow beating teams that look stronger in the later stages. But this time Portugal looked really strong and attacking, and Germany looked quite weak, so I thought it would be different. But it looks like the old saying that "Football is a game where two teams kick a ball around for 90 minutes and Germany always wins" is more accurate than I suspected.
