euro 2008 - kick start - group a - switzerland vs. czech republic
Posted by: his royal highness In: euro 2008| group a| soccer
[edit: post edited due to several spelling errors with the names of the nations involved after a lack of sleep for the soccer season?]
for starters, his royal highness would probably be working on his greenhorn’s prediction of teams that he favors in euro 2008.
presenting:- a zero to nothing’s prediction of euro 2008
***
and here’s comes euro 2008, straight from the fields at austria and switzerland.
we’ve experienced world cup 2006 fever with the royalty @ ~ we are chiwasu ?! we’ve made adidas jerseys that mimic germany jersey. back then, the royalty [a.ka. his royal highness, the royal advisor, the royal protector] and two others made germany look-alike tops when they’ve all caught the fever. his royalness even went a step further to get a authenticate deutschland jersey. and ouch, did it hurts his royal treasury.
and now, euro 2008 is finally here. will another round of fever start? perhaps? perhaps not. he’s waging on the not. sighs.
there’s a total 4 tables. germany is back again in group b with croatia, poland and austria (table 2). it’s considered a much easier table as opposed to the ’round of death’ that puts holland, italy, romania, france in that set up. and it seems, for every major head turner soccer tournament, there’s a 100% assurance of a death table. well, for such breezer, they should well delivered and progress by topping the table. and who knows, the royalties might just break into anther white jersey deutschland craze. wow.

at the time of this post, in group a, switzerland, one of the host nation for euro 2008 is kick starting the game with a match with world cup verterans, the czech republic.
at half time (HT), the score stands at:-
(switzerland)
:
(czech republic)
0 : 0
will the switzerland win? can the swiss stand against the veterans czechs who had and still has all the major game experience?
considering on statistics from livescores.com, switzerland has a better half in possessions.
well, his royal highness sure hope switzerland wins. afterall, they did perform decent from their past soccer records in other games. well, considering switzerland is one of the host nation for euro 2008. they should win the first half. the burden to win is on them. what’s more, with home ground (okay, his highness has no idea where the match was being played… lol…) it would really reflect badly on them if they fumbled.
czech republic from what his highness understands… consists of a bunch of veterans. and that means old troops. though they did have fresh blood coming in to replace the ancient masters… well… we’ll see how it goes.
once again, from someone who has zero to nothing prior info on both teams, he stills hopes switerzland wins. their country flag looks neater anyway.
and so, he predicts the results at full time (FT) as :-
(switzerland)
:
(czech republic)
0 : 0
because the czechs are the stronger team. a draw would please the swiss. all hail the swiss
***
okay, the final score at FT is out:-
(switzerland)
:
(czech republic)
0 : 1 (70′)
a 70 min goal from the czechs crushed the swiss’s hopes. as the swiss made more fouls in hope to savage the situation bearing no fruit.
