The One With The Round-up (part 1)
So, now every team in Euro 2004 has played their first match. In Group C, Italy went into a goalless draw with Denmark . Some spectacular saves were made by both keepers to protect their goal, Sweden trashed Bulgaria 5-0, Larsson (back from his international retirement) scored twice, (the headed goal was simply superb) and has become the tournament leading goal scorer.
Last nite matches for Group D, Euro 96 runners-up Czech Republic survived scare when they scored twice in last 15 minutes to prevent another upset from little Latvia. Czech won 2-1. Man U striker, van Nistelrooy scored late equalizer for Holland to cancel Germany's freakish first half lead. A free-kick taken by Frings from an unthreatening area curling without connected to any players including keeper van der Saar ended into the far post of the goal. Both teams satisfied with a 1-1 draw.
You may have seen how every team is playing but still lots more to come..
