And the Czechs start ahead. 0-1
EDIT: Make it 0-2.

Groan, the official livestream of our national broadcasting company is not working. With my luck I'll miss the entire first game only for it to start working when the second one that doesn't really interest me at all kicks off. Oh well, I shall root for the Czechs from here. Go Middle Europe, Go.
-
We're not even in the 10th minute and it's 2-0? Rough start, Greece.
-
Not a big suprise , Chzechs have a strong team
-
Now that's a promising beginning. You go, Czechs!
-
Forgot the time and missed the beginning, 2 - 0 already, oh my. And wait what's this? The Greece keeper had to go off? Didn't look like anything happened, maybe something with his back?
EDIT: Looks like it was the knee.
Greece really have been unlucky, they've lost both their centre backs and now the keeper. It's hard to maintain a good defensive discipline without your key players

It's less about the Czech team being good and more the Greek team being IMO the weakest team in the whole cup.
Even the main goalkeeper was taken off. Not expecting anything from Greece.

Injury. Plus, he failed on the second Czech goal and wasn't feeling very confident.
-
And now a goalie switch. Looks like it was due to injury, though.
-
And here I thought "Damn, missed the first 20 minutes, ah nevermind" lol
-
Wow, I just woke up and tuned it, was not expecting to see this score at the 26 minute mark. And y'all say it was like that withing 10 minutes?
Dang, I expected the Czech team to win, but I really hope this doesn't just turn into a blow out.
-
It
s obvious that Greece needs a red card now, or else they wont be able to score a goal in this game. -

It was 2-0 at the 6 minute mark. XD But the Greeks look like they've slowed the Czechs down a little.
Edit: I'm not impressed by Greece's attitude, though. Seems very dive-happy to me.
-
Goal but offside, very close though.
-
Good eyes by the ref. I was doubting it was offsides till the replay. Though I still feel like they should have got it, just so Greece would have a semblance of a chance.
-
Looking at the goals now, horrible defending. Greece's left back was all over the place and in the second goal the keeper and centre backs should have got to the ball first.

LMAO. Hilarious goal is hilarious. 1-2.
Poor Czech goalkeeper.
-
Wow, Petr Cech. That was the worst goalkeeping I've ever seen.
-
Horribly bad luck for Czech there. Still think they end up winning.
-
In other news, Russian fans just keep getting more and more idiotic by the day (even though the Polish apparently started it). This time they're wrecking havoc smackdab in the middle of Warsaw. Even the local police force has been reported to have opened fire against them…

I'm afraid of what will happen when the match actually starts. -
Damn this match got good.
-
Poland and Russia have the most violent supporters , brace yourself guys
-
I'm SHOCKED at how good Poland is! Yeah, I'm polish and all, but I was so sure we would get smashed Hulk-style today. And yet… it seems we're winning in the whole psychological thingie aspect. Damn, I'm a little proud.
-
unfortunately that was to expected with the kind of history Poland and Russia together have no wonder situation is tense and read to explode. And many die hard soccer fans are also extreme supporters of nationalism. Even if it is only small fraction, they still want to make themselves visible.
-
Dzagoyev! Atta boy!
-
sh*t, we've messed up, but hopefully we are going to make up for it. Go Poland!
-
Beautiful goal by Blaszczykowski!! Absolutely perfect strike.
Fantastic match so far!
-
Poland!! Keep it up
-
Damn fine match, though Poland really should have had the win, especially with how they dominated Russia in the second half.
-
Damn, I was SO sure we could win. We had everything needed to win and yet - we ended with a draw. Poland won the match in every aspect but the goal scoring one. ;)
-
This turned out to be a great match. I hope Poland will qualify for the next round, they did really well today!
-
They could have won… but a draw is better than everybody has anticipated. I think it's unfortunate magic of negative thinking majority of Polish fans present. Before Greece it was: "We should win, we have better team, but, since it's us we are going to loose anyway", now it was: "Russians are more machines than men, we are not up to this." Seriously what kind of cheering is that? Hopefully now they've seen that we are not that bad, and we were handling even the "scary Russians". I'm sure it's pessimism that brings the lack of luck, and luck is also needed in the sport. But the most important part is we still have a chance.
-
This Poland can and should pass, but it will be hard.
More important, though, lets smash some danes tomorrow. I'm hopping we can win tomorrow. We really need it. -
I'm going for Spain as always! Go La Roja Go! It was shocking to see Denmark get the better of Holland and Germany defeating Portugal wasn't a surprise. I love Germany as well but for some reason they always "choke" at the end. If Spain can't win it then I'd be happy for the Euro cup to head to Germany because they are a well oiled machine as well. It sucks though how David Villa and Puyol are not in attendance for Spain.
-
Oh my… I just saw the fixtures for today -> Germany vs Netherlands. Germany will come out of the group stages easily anyways so I would like to see Germany lose just for the lulz

I'm a Bayern and Germany fan but I have to say this.
Let Klose play instead of Gomez.Netherlands will surely play offensive game and may suffer from counter attack.
So Germany needs someone agile and able to keep possession of the ball.
Gomez loose the ball easily sometimes.
He's good but Klose is also good and more experienced.
I hope he'll be fit to play against Netherlands -

Germany losing, Portugal winning… That would lead to an amazing 3rd round...
-
except Germany won't lose
-
Oh tonight there will be so many bitchfights : D
-
Not on my watch. Quarreling over the results of a football match online is so ludicrously retarded that I really hope we're all above that kind of foolishness here. Smart people keep their feelings checked and enjoy the game no matter how it ends. Feeling strongly is allowed, even potentially advisable, as long as it's not taken out on other people.
Anyway, I hope that both Germany and the Netherlands will advance from this group, so I'd like to see Portugal win and Germany lose today. Then Germany could kick Denmark's butt and Netherlands beat Portugal.
-
Netherlands and Portugal. I hope for the best of them today.
Yesterday's match had a great middle part. But after the polish goal both teams began to prefer standing to running. Also, I understand that poles are at home, but playing as rough as they did… eh.
-
Ugh, Germany.
Ugh.
-
hihihihihiihi…

I'm glad Russia finally got a warning for the actions of the Russian fans. That was getting way to out of control.
EDIT: Beautiful header by Pepe!
-
Wow, 0-2 already. If only the top strikers of the Netherlands could do the same this evening.

hihihihihiihi…
That is awesome right there
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Beautiful header right there. Denmark is back in it.
-
Now this game is a shootout! This is such a good game.
-
Portugal's offense-centered style is really giving me Brazilian vibes. It's almost like watching one of the yellow shirts' match from the beginning of the century. This is so pretty that it's almost inspiring.
… they just shouldn't be faking this much.
-
Netherlands better be doing wonders to get through this group. Nice going, Portugal.
