Default Favorite moments in this group?

What are your favorite moments in any of the matches in this group, there have been plenty of awesome goals and lots of drama so many moments to pick from.

My favorite moment is the moment between France scoring against the Netherlands and the immediate Dutch goal following it. It was so funny to see some French players and Domenech trying to get their team to hurry up getting back to their spots so that they could try to equalize, only to have Robben score 44 seconds after the France goal and Henry falling on his knees, beaten.

Another great moment was the penalty Buffon stopped in the Romania game, that was pretty good, saved the tournament for Italy.

van Nistelrooy doing a little trick allowing Robben to assist vPersie against France (2-0).
I have never seen him do anything like that!

Sneijder's second goal against Italy. From start to end, that was a great goal that summarizes the Dutch performance so far.

Precise, fast, agressive and sharp on the finish.

I take it you mean Holland's second goal, Sneijder only scored once against Italy.

it's hard to have any... it was just hard lines all around for us. what's ironic is that the one match france really has to reproach themselves of was the only one they got a point out of, and yet even if they had won it 5-0 they'd still be out now.

there's only one positive moment i can keep: grosso's trying to console his OL teammates, especially benzema.

that's something that helps make football special. just like in sunday knockaround groups, you can be both teammates and opponents with the same guys.

In hindsight this could be the play of the tournament depending on how far The Azzurri go.

Domenech saying the match yesterday was rigged.

Instead of just admitting he is a god awful coach.

Translation to the article:

"I should of called up David Trezeguet"
