Villa you beauty, you just won me ?40:DD!!!

I celebrated that like a Liverpool goal!!

i celebrated when our boy scored like it was a liverpool goal. I even got excited with dirk scored against my french like it was a liverpool goal, our future is good:)).

Poor Greece, was it a fluke they won it in 2004?

Out of interest not trying to be nasty towards Greek team.

greeks play garbage boring football. Last game the commentator said "here are greece tippy toeing towards the center line, oh never mind that, they just gave it back to their keeper" The ENTIRE crowd starting booing them. They play the worst football in the world. The fact they won a single game last euro is amazing let alone winning the entire thing...

It doesn't have to be pretty to be effective. And you do realize that they are here while England isn't right? They must not be that bad. It's "fans" like you that are the ruining the game for the rest of us that actually know something about the sport.

How's he ruining the game for you just by stating the obvious? Greeks play the kind of football everyone despises, and pretty much everyone is glad that they lost. If they actually tried against Sweden, instead of defending 99.9% of the time, they might've made it to the second round.

looking at the Sweden - Spain game now... Shame about that last goal, however felt well deserved from Spain's side.

They had loads of opportunities. Let's just hope we manage to fight off those crazy Russians, would be fun to meet Holland again in the quarter final as in 2004. :)

I agree that Greece plays some horrendous football and I stated this in the beginning of this thread, however, Greece actually played some football today. They actually went up the field as a team and they had some very good chances throughout the game. I was pleasantly surprised.

Nonetheless, Greece deserves to be out of the tournament. If they made it through to the next round, it would be Euro 2004 all over again with them stuffing 10 players in the back, scoring on a free kick/corner kick, and winning every game 1-0 while making each game as boring as golf.

Because the more people scream for "pretty" football, the lower the quality of the games played. The games are played to see who is the better team, and the team that best executes their game plan. It's NOT so that "fans" can see nice bicycle kicks and all that kind of crap for entertainment. We are watching footy, not the WWE right?

That is not the point. The point is that Greece's opponents want to play football and Greece doesn't play football. Greece sits in the back for 80 minutes defending and passing the ball back and forth to and from their goalie. If their opponents do not pressure them, which Sweden didn't, then they do not come forward which is why they were boo'd nearly all game.

Greece is a good team, believe it or not. If their coach actually had a gameplan instead of just defending, they would get far. They showed today that they can play some good football but when its not a must-win game, they do not play like they did today. They will settle for a 0-0 draw.

    • Last week I was investigating an issue with contacts and tried using the new Outlook. In the real (Classic) Outlook, you can easily go to any Outlook folder and present it in a Table View, then customize the columns to show/sort any field, which was exactly what I needed. But of course, the new Outlook doesn't have this feature at all. I gave up. Oh, and can we possibly stop claiming the new Outlook has PST support? What it really has is the ability to use the real Outlook in the background to pretend to have PST support. There is no PST support without the real Outlook installed.
    • Honestly just before Panos left it started to feel like MS just wasnt interested in them so they were being less innovative with them, and then when he DID leave for Amazon its kind of clear the direction is gone. It felt like Panos had both goals and drive, and a vision, but it felt like no matter what his title/department was the Surface devices never had the full interest of the rest of management and he was just pushing a bolder up a hill that MS was adding dirt to as he went.
    • A roguelike and a 4X strategy game are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The final leg of the Epic Games Store's mystery giveaways promotion just landed, and it brought along two more games to keep. Last week's Lonestar and Calico giveaways have now been replaced with copies of Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest to claim for PC gamers. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. Diving into the games, Songs of Conquest is developed by Lavapotion. This is a turn-based 4X strategy experience that has players making tough decisions and participating in tactical combat while also managing their kingdom. "Songs of Conquest is a turn-based strategy game inspired by 90s classics. Lead powerful magicians called Wielders and venture to lands unknown," explains the developer. "Wage battles against armies that dare oppose you, hunt for powerful artifacts and expand your territory. The world is ripe for the taking – seize it." Meanwhile, Rogue Waters comes from developer Ice Code Games. This rogue-lite experience has you taking the role of Captain Cutter as he commands his ship and crew through procedurally generated encounters. You'll be recruiting and training crew, use sea creatures, and battle with other ships and pirates. "Set sail as Captain Cutter, a pirate caught in a deadly struggle for power and vengeance," adds the developer. "Navigate dangerous waters, unleash mythical sea creatures, and outwit enemies as you chase legendary treasure and confront dark secrets." The newly available Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day, which is slated to be Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook by Usama Jawad As many of you may know, Microsoft has been trying to get customers to ditch Classic Outlook in favor of New Outlook for quite some time now. To that end, it has added numerous capabilities to the latter, including PST features, and it is working on several more, such as a unified inbox. However, customer response has been a bit lukewarm so far, with many considering the New Outlook to be "hot garbage". Now, Microsoft has highlighted 15 features that users can leverage in New Outlook in yet another attempt to get customers to migrate. Although not all of the 15 capabilities are exclusive to New Outlook, in fact, most of them are available in Classic Outlook as well. But Microsoft hopes that this combination of familiar and fresh features will be able to attract existing users as well as new ones. For ease of readability, we have summarized the 15 features below: Pin an email: This makes it easier to track important emails Snooze an email: You can temporarily snooze an email thread for a specific time frame until it becomes relevant again. This can be very useful in scenarios where you don't feel like actively following a thread or simply want to follow up on a later date Add multiple categories at the same time: You can assign multiple categories to an email through a single, simplified interface Sweep: As the name implies, you can define automated move processes on your inbox to declutter it, rather than cleaning it up manually Schedule send: Does exactly what it says on the tin, and can be useful when accommodating recipients in different timezones Simplified folder sharing: The sharing process has been simplified so permissions are automatically applied on parent folders Follow a meeting: This is an RSVP option that lets people know that you won't be able to join the meeting but would still like to access a recap Save calendar views: You can save different views for the calendar based on different workflows Improved meeting tracking: Organizers have more controls in viewing meeting responses, such as the ability to sort and download them. Typically useful when there is a large audience Meeting recap: The Outlook Calendar surfaces a meeting recap with recordings, transcripts, and shared files Filtered views: Allows you to declutter your Calendar so that it's easier to scan and schedule Change a recurring event: Users can modify future events of a series of meetings while preserving the configuration of previous ones Rename your email account: This labeling makes it easier to identify multiple accounts in Outlook Modern themes: Exactly what the name says, plus Dark Mode Keyboard shortcuts: This facilitates flexible user behavior as customers can choose between Outlook for Windows shortcuts, Outlook for the web, or turn them off completely There you have it. It's a decent list, but it remains to be seen if it will move the needle in a meaningful way for users who are attached to Classic Outlook. Again, a lot of the aforementioned features are already available in Outlook Classic, but for some, native functionality is not present, and people typically resort to workarounds. Microsoft will be hoping that it's primarily those capabilities that get people to finally switch.
