Bitter thoughts of Euro 2004
Euro 2004 is finally over. And what an end! The Greeks are the champions of Europe! To the whole country, it is a fairytale come true. From underdogs to top dogs! Actually wanted to do a short writeup on all the teams of Euro. But heck, it's too much of a bother! ;p
But I just hate them! Their win just leaves a sour taste in my mouth! Their way of play just sux big time! Tight defending, few shots at goal, incessant fouling. Tell me, how does this make a great soccer team? However, I would have to admit that once they have a shot at goal, it always goes in! The exact scenario this morning! Their tight defending always succeeds in frustrating opponents, just like they did again this morning against Portugal. But I was so pissed with Portugal too. It seems that when nothing is going right for you, players start to fall just when they approach goal, or blasts the shot way off target!
Well, whatever it is, congrats to Greece for winning the championship but they better treasure it coz they only have 4 years to hold on to the trophy. World Cup? Forget about it! No way..
