Vote: Who Will Win in Netherlands vs. Russia?

June 21st, 2008 | By: Laurie | 15 Comments »

Boys and girls, we as a group are not doing so well.

Fully 60% of us expected Portugal to win over Germany. Yet Germany won, 3-2. And 68% expected Croatia to win over Turkey. Yet Turkey scored in the last seconds of extra time, taking the game to penalties, which they won 3-1.

All I can say about our collective incompetence is this: Please, please, please vote for Italy over Spain tomorrow!

Thank you.

As far as today’s game? It’s up to you. Who will win in Netherlands vs. Russia?

I thought it would be Portugal. I thought it would be Croatia. I think it will be the Netherlands. And I think it will be Spain. I’m going down with the ship.

I think Netherlands will win, and I also expect an high scoring game. The russians are excelent in attack, but a bit dodgy in defense. We all know how well the Dutch guys can play, and what kind of goals they can score. I said in my blog that this match will see many goals, and that is my trading tip :)

shh Laurie! don’t be jelous!

for the record, I picked Turkey over Croata. They’re incredibly underrated and I think they could beat Germany to get to the finals to be honest.
But here I think it’s a pretty sure bet on the Netherlands.

Have a feeling Russia might just win this one. Stranger things have happened and they came this far. Ya never know in international tournments. Since I am neutral I just hope that both sides have fun and play a great game.,

The lyrical irony of the universe has ordained that the Dutch must be rewarded for their show of fair play with a heart-breaking loss to Italy in the semis. Therefore, while Russia will play a good game, the Netherlands will win to go forward and face their bitter destiny. :-)

Russia will win 3-2. We become more experienced and much stronger from game to game. We have nothing to loose and Guus will make his magic. In any case today will be great fight and wonderful football

guus will lose this one. One Dutch trainer can’t beat a team full of Dutchman. It will be a great match to watch though. And Tito , if we want to be European one, we will need to beat everyone, even some teams twice

I am not sure why anyone would ever think that Portugal could beat Germany, the German bench could beat Portugal, this is why…BALLS, courage or guts whatever adjective you wish to use.
Portugal is weak..even Lil’ LAHM was making them look weak, how tall is he like 4′9? as tall as Decco I presume.

NETHERLANDS will win 3-1 but it will be close, I don’t think Russia can comeback like Turkey..one reason for that: Netherlands is not as naive and careless as Croatia.

Cheers.
