Johnstons Paint Euro 2008 Prediction Trophy - quarter finals

[bocadillo]

Once again there will only be less than 24 hours between the end of the last 2nd round game on Saturday and the start of the quarter-finals on Sunday - and once again, I realise that it might be difficult for some of you to get your predictions in during this short period, particularly those of you who only log on at work.

This time though with the quarter-finals being head-to-head, I'm asking those who are still in the main trophy competition to PM their predictions to me. I will then place them in the appropriate thread when the make-up of the quarter finals is decided. Those who are already in the Consolation Pisspot should post their predictions in the other thread.


Here are the fixtures:

Switzerland v Portugal
Turkey v Czech Republic
Austria v Germany
Poland v Croatia
France v Italy
Holland v Romania
Greece v Spain
Russia v Sweden

Nothing there to split Dorset and DV, so they both live on another day.

This thread is now unlocked for comment, banter, etc.

Austria v Germany 1-2
Poland v Croatia 1-2

Germany only just scraping through when they have to win?

Croatia to win despite already being through and playing a Poland side who have to win to have any chance of progression?

Österreich 0:1 Deutschland
Polska 0:1 Hrvatska

We've at last managed to split Darth Vodka and Dorset Fox: with 2 points from tonight's matches to his opponents 1, it's Darth Vodka that finds himself in the quarter-final. Well done, DV - hard luck, Dorset.

So, half way through the games, the scores stand at:

Germany only just scraping through when they have to win?

Croatia to win despite already being through and playing a Poland side who have to win to have any chance of progression?

good call

I don't think things are as bad as you seem to think. It looks to me as though one correct result and one correct goal-difference will do it for you.
