The most boring match award still goes to France-Romania. This match has had its moments and the conditions on the field make it watchable.
Thism match is fun and watchable in its own right. Then again, there's nothing worse than a soaked Swiss-Turkey sandwich.

I'm really into this match because of what happened in the qualifiers of 06.

Erm... goal Turkey btw... 1-1. Game is pretty entertaining. End to end stuff. Both teams need to win. Switzerland really lack ideas up front. Turkey are bringing it this half.

1-1 final score will be a fair result IMO, both teams are about even

This had been a good game. I'm surprised there aren't more posts in here. Switzerland really should have scored on that last break. That shot could have been so much better.

I feel sorry for Switzerland. It's bad if the host goes out that early (and it doesn't look much better for Austria). Also, Switzerland was the better team. But that's life. Congratulations to Turkey.
