Mainly football

[redfiona99]

I now have two matching purple bruises, one on my upper arm and one on my thigh. Fencing - 'tis more dangerous than it looks.

Watched the football.

Portugal 1 - 2 Greece: good match, brilliant result. Na-na-na-na-na at the Portuguese coach.

The Greeks are very happy - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpd15506122021.euro_2004_soc_portugal_greece_xpd155&prov=ap

Greece's German coach (which probably explains the defensive style) http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpd14106130022.euro_2004_soc_portugal_greece_xpd141&prov=ap

Luis Figo and the scary referee - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpd15106122026.euro_2004_soc_portugal_greece_xpd151&prov=ap (Damn and blast it, Collina is retiring at the end of the season, what are we going to do without him?)

Spain 1 - 0 Russia: Damn.

Dear Smertin, this is blatent cheating - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpa13906122129.euro_2004_spain_russia_xpa139&prov=ap

Croatia 0 - 0 Switzerland: No, I have no idea how this happened either. The Swiss goalkeeper is of the crazy - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpdmp12306131844.euro_2004_che_hrv_soc_xpdmp123&prov=ap

England 1 - 2 France aka the most painful stoppage time loss for quite some time. I shall explain - England were 1-0 up. Into stoppage time, Zidane scores a beautiful free kick. Steven Gerrard fucks up massively, leading to David James having to concede a penalty. Zidane converts, final whistle blows. From winners to losers in three and a half minutes. The last time it was this bad it was Italy on the receving end of a French comeback. This is not helped by the fact that David Beckham had previously missed a penalty which would have sown the game up for England.

The French, they are happy - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpluz17806140048.euro_2004_soc_fra_gbr_xen_xpluz178&prov=ap
http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpluz14806132121.euro_2004_soc_fra_gbr_xen_xpluz148&prov=ap (I just love that shot because Zidane isn't cheering. He's always come across as decent in that way.)

England less so - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xpluz16306132309.euro_2004_soc_fra_gbr_xen_xpluz163&prov=ap

Good shot of a riot policeman - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=xms10206131925.euro_2004_soc_xen_gbr_xms102&prov=ap
