[Euro] Holland Vs. France

What an intense game, judging by Frances perfoermance against Romania, I dont think any of us were expecting a strong attacking side that was displayed.
Holland prove that the win over the world champions was most definatly not a fluke. Finally Holland has sorted out their usual 'selfdestructing' routine.
A feast of goals either side, what an unforgetable game.

France and Italy could well be own their way out. Due to the stupid idea of splitting the competition in half ,Holland could come up against Romania. Who would you rather play, France or Romania? Holland will probably rest players and after the way Romania have played so far, they could beat Holland. Romania were desperatley unlucky today.

I said Romania would get through all along, all they need to do is draw and Holland need to win and then Holland and Romania are through. Oh, and France aren't world champions

He meant that after this win tonight, it has showed that the 3-0 win over Italy wasn't a fluke.

I agree that this game with Romania will be a chance for Holland to play so of those world class players that are yet to play, such as Hunterlaar, de Cler and Mathijsen

The win over Italy wasn't a fluke no, if you watched the game they dominated from start to finish. I didn't watch the game tonight because I was at work but I'm guessing it's the same - whoever wrote Holland off at the start are pretty dumb because they have a world class team.

The first 20 minutes, Holland dominated. For the rest of the half it was mainly France. In the second half, France came out and went for it. It was all France. Henry missed a great chance then whilst France were attacking, Holland counter-attacked and scored. France carried on trying, scored then 30 seconds later Holland scored. It deflated France and Holland scored again. It was a pretty even game.
