I'm beginning to wonder if there's some sort of curse that means only Swedes will be able to score in this group. We need some Jönssons and Lundkvists on the team...

Bulgaria coming awfully close there, Saint Thomas doesn't look as reliable as before, but maybe a wake-up call is appropriate at this time.

Also for history's sake and since it's very probable this will change shortly I'd like to post this classification which is the best ever for Grecia so I'll look at it and feel happy.

I thought Denmark looked pretty good in the first half, a lot of great passing and running, even if they were not able to take all their chances. Second half they just tried to lock it up, dodgy tactics for a team not that great at the back, and they nearly got caught out. But Bulgaria were not even trying hard.

Yeah, it was a good last minute decision. It's heresy I know, but as I had gone with a 2-0 prediction as well I was actually relieved to see Sand's attempt bounce off the bar in the dying moment of the game.

Right, but then again, the referee was a complete @$$ and did everything in his power to let the game getting a bit out of control. The yellow-red card was a joke.

That was a very important equalizer. Now Sweden can draw against Denmark and advance from the group, instead of the other way around, had Italy held on to their lead.

In short,

D'oh!

Yes, but we're the only ones who haven't had a goal scored against us.

So what are the implications from now on? If Sweden and Denmark draw..Sweden go through right (assuming Italy win)? And if such happens, Italy need to win by three goals..

Otherwise if there is a winner in the Den-Swe game, Italy just need to win, by any scoreline?

Yes, Sweden goes through in that case. Whether Italy or Denmark goes through depends on the score. In case of a 0-0, Italy goes through (assuming they win against Bulgaria). In case of 2-2, 3-3 or more, Denmark goes through. In case of 1-1, Italy needs to win with either 3-0 or a two goal difference but score at least three times (3-1, 4-2, etc). If Italy wins exactly 2-0 things get really complicated and they'll look at the coefficients of previous tournaments and qualifiers and stuff, no idea who goes through then.

Aren't EUFA regulations fun?

Have any of you guys ever watched a game where you so passionately wanted a team to win? I mean, not a particular team, but any team?

Ah well, I approve of Sweden's comeback, and disregarding everything else I'd love the Italians to screw up against Bulgaria (see above post) so we won't qualify at the expense of the brødrefolk. Realizing that that's too much to hope for, all of Scandinavia will be glued to the screen on 22 June.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

There are no bad teams in the Euro Cup, so Italy should not expect a freebe in Bulgaria. They want revenge after two losses, even if it would take them nowhere. The only reason they lost so big against us was that they stopped playing after 2-0.

Which incidentally will be exactly 12 years after we last advanced from the semifinals, having defeated Holland on penalties.
