How good it must feel to be a Dutch fan right now. They start Euro 2008 by kicking the shit out of the World Cup winners and the runners-up!!!

Hup Holland hup! :)

[timotheus]

stunning

Holy Schneikies.

God I hope they're not peaking early. I wanna see this kind of soccer as long as possible.

[canzano55]

I can't believe I'm saying this but I feel sorry for France especially Ribery. Poor Frank was the only guy who really gave a shit and played hard while the rest of his teamates played like the has beens they are.


I'm so sorry Frank, you're still world class though.

[David-G]

Holy ish! What a strike by Sneijder, what a game by the Dutch. To dominate Italy AND France like that...it feels like they've already won it and the group stages aren't even over! Really hope they haven't peaked to early.

Yeah, I haven't heard the "van Basten hates total football" people in quite some time!

Much credit to the Dutch. Two amazing performances...

[Suyuntuy]

Congrats to the Dutch. Indeed, a final against Portugal may be one of the most beautiful games ever. Great goals, great team, smart coach, and a great show. Thank you to the Oranje.

[Crimen y Castigo]

So the Dutch are most likely to get Sweden, yes?

Fine by me, they deserve a less-than-brutal quarter match-up.

[Prenn]

Rest the first teamers against Romainia :D

[Pit-182]

This Netherland is one of the best national team EVER.

Jesus Christ they defeated with 3 goals Italy and France... the finalists of WC 2006...

[1shot1kill]

This is interesting, I believe both France and Italy now face each other both with 1 points, both with 1 goal for and with 4 goals against.

I agree with you on Ribery, but I thought Sagnol and Henry never stopped battling either.

[glennaldo_sf]

Yeah... glennaldosf and the above are dead on. I can't say how great Van Basten is tactically, but he certainly knows what it takes to win a tournament.

Let's not get too ahead of ourselves! No trophy has gone anywhere just yet. But yeah I agree... Holland are the team to beat at the moment. Actually, that's the biggest understatement of the month.... 7 F****** goals against Italy & France!!! Holland are to these Euros what Brazil were in 1970.... but they haven't won the final yet.

[Tetsuo]

that's it ! the dutch have 1st place and romania are clear favorites for second place. go romania! :D
