26/6/2008 Euro 2008 Spain vs Russia Live

The hype is starting to build for this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 semifinal between Spain and Russia live as what the media brand as the two most attractive teams to watch in the last four now do battle to see who will play Germany to become European champions. Spain have been talking up their chances in this live online streaming match since they overcame the Italians in the quarterfinals and much of the debate now hovers over who should play, Fabregas or Iniesta. The two players to their credit have kept mum over the whole issue and are giving more attention to the team ethic of the Spanish camp. But the media should not forget also what they have seen on live streaming English Premiership football with the goalscoring feats of Fernando Torres, and the other players. It is this same team and work ethic that could soon remove the ever present tag of them being chokers on the international stage in this live soccer commentary match between Spain and Russia and elevate them to a great team.

They have to overcome the great mind of Guus Hiddink in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 semifinal between Spain and Russia live before they can reach that status and it is something that might not be possible due to the cunning and shrewd mind of the Dutchman. In comparison, Luis Aragones can sometimes rely too much on players he used to rely on and end up not picking players who are on form and who have shown to be capable of playing international football like Fabregas. It might backfire on him in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Spain and Russia if Iniesta not only plays badly again but also fails to contribute in any way in terms of stopping Russia's dangerman Andrei Arshavin. Arshavin will also be trying to make a statement in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Spain and Russia as he wants to move to Barcelona and if he can play well against the Spanish national team, they might just come and get him.

22/6/2008 Euro 2008 Spain vs Italy Live

This live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 quarterfinal between Spain and Italy live is the biggest matchup among the four quarterfinals as we finally have two established teams trying to eliminate each other at this stage. There is a lot at stake for both sides in this live online streaming match as their reputations count on it and also they want to win as many trophies as they can. Spain have not had much joy at all on the world stage and they have even been labelled as the best chokers in the business and while they have the best league in the world in terms of flair and creativity, they also have the mentally weakest players wearing their colours and representing them. This present group wants to debunk that theory and the first step to doing so is to make sure they win this live soccer commentary match between Spain and Italy and end up being crowned champions at the end of the month.

The Italians have gone through a lot in the group stages and will probably have to endure more in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 quarterfinal between Spain and Italy live as they are similar to what Turkey faced a few days ago with a walking wounded squad that resembles more of something out of a zombie flick than a soccer nation. Their coach Donadoni has also looked a forlorn figure on the sidelines in each game and even though he has managed to guide them through the tough group stages, he is still under intense scrutiny. Winning this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Spain and Italy might not even save him his job as he has to go all the way to being champions in order to do that. In fact, one suspects that even if he does win this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Spain and Italy and win the trophy, he will still be asked to step down at the end of the tournament due to his apparent inadequacies at this level.

22/6/2008 World Cup 2010 UAE vs Syria Live

Another crucial match in a competitive group in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between UAE and Syria live as both teams have their fates hanging on the edge with different permutations possible. THe hosts have to make sure they do not lose this live online streaming match or they will be on the early flight home in terms of having to qualify for the World Cup in 2010. They have to contend with a very tough side in Syria who never seem to give up and even when they are outplayed they can sometimes be similar to Turkey in spirit. The United Arab Emirates do get to play this live soccer commentary match between UAE and Syria at home though and that is one small advantage that they can make use of to hit their goal and get to the next round.

The Syrians can draw inspiration for this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between UAE and Syria live from the current Turkey team in the major international tournament being beamed world wide at the moment. They have the same mentality in not giving up on seemingly lost causes and that has landed them in such a position where they still have some hope of getting to the next round. However, they need to win this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between UAE and Syria in order to be able to do so and it does seem quite an insurmountable barrier. But that is the secret of their success and anything this insurmountable as this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between UAE and Syria will be music to their ears and they will let their feet do the talking on the field in giving it their best shot.

22/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Iran vs Kuwait Live

The home side has nothing at stake and to play for in this live online radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Iran and Kuwait live as they have already guaranteed their place in the next round. They have to contend with a team that still has a very slim chance in this live online streaming match who might play hard but most of the time teams in this position will not bother to do so as they have already given up the fight. Iran is also fully prepared for this game and they will not allow themselves to be beaten at home so easily, especially since they still consider themselves one of the best, if not the best, in the region. They will take this live soccer commentary match between Iran and Kuwait very seriously and look to hand out some tough punishment.

Kuwait will be disappointed with their results and this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Iran and Kuwait live will be of little solace to them since they are effectively out of the next round. They have not played anywhere near to the best of their abilities nor potential and the lack of consistency has also hurt them where it hurts most and that is the ability to get results and points. They now have to wrap up this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Iran and Kuwait in a poor frame of mind as they play the group leaders and have no mood to try to get any good result for themselves. The cause is already lost for this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Iran and Kuwait and perhaps the best they can play for is a draw which would still leave them bottom of the group.

22/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Japan vs Bahrain Live

The two teams in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Japan and Bahrain live have already gone through to the next round and there is nothing at stake here except group bragging rights. The Bahrainians have been much the better team in the group so far and this live online streaming match will be their chance to cement that reputation. They will have to do it the hard way since the game will be held in Japan and the hosts are traditionally very strong at home. They have not been at their best this time and this live soccer commentary match between Japan and Bahrain will be their own chance of putting the record straight instead of having to be considered second best.

The Bahrainians have impressed with their speed and agility and this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Japan and Bahrain live will be a severe test of the hosts ability to cope with such a game which they have often not been able to deal well with on the international stage. Now that the Gulf sides are shaped more and more in that model, they have to learn how to cope with it so that they can do better in the World Cup finals that they have so often disappointed in. They can also look to their home support in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Japan and Bahrain to give them some cheers and to lift their morale for the game. The Japanese fans will definitely fill the stadium to capacity in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Japan and Bahrain as they are always a very colourful crowd and one of the best at organising cheers for their team.

22/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Iraq vs Qatar Live

This live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Iraq and Qatar live is the last match of the group and also the one that will decide who will join Australia in the next round and at the moment the favourites are the hosts who have a strong edge. They just need to avoid losing in this live online streaming match and they will be able to carry on the fairytale that started since they won the Asian Cup last year. They have a strong core of the team still together and the level of spirit in the team has been incredible as the hopes of their people carry them on. They will also once again bring their attacking football to this live soccer commentary match between Iraq and Qatar and as the saying goes if it ain't broke why fix it which is why they will continue playing their football and letting it do the talking.

The Qataris know they need to win this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Iraq and Qatar live in order to go through and do not seem very confident about their chances. It is not surprising as they have been very inconsistent in the group matches so far and have struggled to string together wins which would have given them some sort of momentum. Their heavy defeat at the hands of Australia last week also did not do them any favours for this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Iraq and Qatar as a point then would have given them a much better situation to deal with. Instead, now they need to collect all points from this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Iraq and Qatar or join the Chinese on an extended holiday.

22/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Australia vs China Live

The Australians have already qualified for the next round and this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Australia and China live will only be a formality for them as there is nothing at stake here for them. They managed a draw in the live online streaming match against the same opponents the last time both sides met and this could turn out the same way with nothing left to play for by both sides. The Australians are clearly the better team and they have shown it by breezing through the group relatively well which was done in emphatic fashion last week in thrashing Qatar. They will probably do the same again in this live soccer commentary match between Australia and China as the Chinese might be totally deflated after yet another glorious failure on the international stage.

The Chinese have been abject failures again as mentioned and not many will give them much of a chance in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Australia and China live after being outclassed by every team in the group so far. They have managed to grab the occasional win and shown some glimpses of brilliance but they have been too few and far between that their head coach is likely to receive the sack anytime soon once this game is over. Unfortunately it has been the traditional story of Chinese international football and this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Australia and China will provide no answers and solutions to how they can solve this. They have to look within and find out if their FA and management structure is good enough to bring them far such that in the future games like this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Australia and China will be more about success for them instead of another defeat.

21/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Mexico vs Belize Live

Sven Goran Eriksson had a baptism of fire in his first competitive match in charge and he will need to do much better in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Mexico and Belize live or the fans could be baying for his blood after just two or three matches in charge. He has not been able to instill any visible improvements so far yet but it is still early days for this live online streaming match to have to prove himself at this level, despite his past failure with England. He has been able to do well at club level though and has been generally a success with every club that he has been at. What he needs to do now in this live soccer commentary match between Mexico and Belize is to improve the players' morale and get them to play the way he has promoted at his clubs, which is to concentrate on the attacking strengths of the players and play the ball as much as possible.

Belize are unlikely to get anything out of this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Mexico and Belize live as they are not playing at home this time round and might suffer from some jitters on a bigger stage. But they have earned the respect of their hosts and this might turn against them as it would not give them as much space and freedom to express themselves as they were allowed last week. That might bring about a negative result for them in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Mexico and Belize as their hosts will be more familiar with them and might have worked out some plan to stop and tear them apart this time. It might not be enough then for them to rely on their resolute play to stop their hosts in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Mexico and Belize and it will then be the four or five goal defeat that people expected initially in the first game.

21/6/2008 Euro 2008 Holland vs Russia Live

With the number of upsets in Euro 2008 so far, will we witness another one in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 quarterfinal between Holland and Russia live as one of the overwhelming favourites will have to cope with the tactical genius of the Russian manager. It could turn out to be a very cagey live online streaming match for the Dutch as while they claim to be one happy bunch, their traditional choker tag might come back to haunt them as there are a few of them in there like Van Persie and Arjen Robben. One also gets the feeling that Marco Van Basten has been lucky so far with his decisions during the matches as he keeps taking risks and how long can one do that without it coming to bite them back in their behinds? If he continues to do that such as in this live soccer commentary match between Holland and Russia and wins it, and then repeats it all the way to the final and lifts the trophy, then he can really be considered a really modern and revolutionary manager.

The Russians have become streetwise very fast and credit to them in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 quarterfinal between Holland and Russia live that they have managed to come this far and have actually improved match by match. Their coach Guus Hiddink said after their first game that they need to become streetwise fast in order to have any hope of staying further than the group stages in Euro 2008, and that is what they have managed to do so far. They might even have more than a little chance of winning this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Holland and Russia if they can prey on the Dutch's legendary famed powers of choking in the more important games even though this edition of the Holland team seem really strong mentally. What the Russians need to really do in this live commentary and live streaming TV braodcast match against Holland would be to listen carefully to what their coach Hiddink has to say and to follow his instructions to the letter.

22/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Barbados vs United States Live

The hosts will be bracing themselves for another thrashing in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Barbados and United States live and it will not be them doing the thrashing. They were soundly beaten by almost double digits the last time they met and this live online streaming match will be their chance of doing better to seek some forgiveness from their fans. It has definitely not been a good time for Barbados on the international stage as they have struggled to cope with the quality teams and it is a wonder their players can continue to pick themselves up to play. They will not look forward to this live soccer commentary match between Barbados and United States as it could turn out to be a very humiliating loss in front of their own fans.

The United States players are not expecting the same kind of game in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Barbados and United States live and definitely not the same kind of result either. They are experienced professionals and know that they cannot get too greedy and goal gluts in the last game are bonuses to their hard work throughout their careers where they get a chance to improve their goal ratios. But there are enough good players in the improving United States team to continue dishing out soccer punishment in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Barbados and United States to their visitors in the same manner they like to do to other countries on the international stage. If they play well enough again in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Barbados and United States, they can overcome the away game situation and maybe get half the number of goals they scored last week.

21/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Nigeria vs Equatorial Guinea Live

Nigeria has been very good so far and are ready to continue in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Nigeria and Equatorial Guinea live as they do not foresee any problems playing against the little known and even less established soccer nation from Equatorial Guinea. They have dealt with every team in the group so far easily and this live online streaming match will be no different as they now also play at home and will be expected to win handsomely. The Nigerians will, predictably, use their physical powerplay to overcome their visitors and their key is to wear them out as early as possible. Then they will slowly grind them away and score the few goals for their fans in this live soccer commentary match between Nigeria and Equatorial Guinea which promises to be all about goals.

Equatorial Guinea is not totally out of the running for any chance in the qualifiers in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Nigeria and Equatorial Guinea live as they still have three points after the three games. If they can add to that tally it would be great for the team, but that should not happen against the team they face today. They will need to face up to the other two teams in the group and then hope that they can get the additional points from them which might give them some chance. They will have to treat this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Nigeria and Equatorial Guinea as a test of their improvements on the international stage, and a stiff test of their ability to defend against better players. They also have to see how good they are at the front in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Nigeria and Equatorial Guinea and determine how well their strikers can play against quality defenders.

20/6/2008 Euro 2008 Turkey vs Croatia Live

Are we seeing the new European champions in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 quarterfinal between Turkey and Croatia live or a great pretender like one of the teams in last night's quarterfinal that stumbled and choked horribly? Or will we see another great upset of the form books in this live online streaming match that is not a match up of two marquee sides but definitely two sides that have a lot to offer in Euro 2008? Turkey have come a long way since losing in their first group game and although they have looked far from solid in all their three games, they have more than made up for it with their never say die attitude. They will probably need more of that in this live soccer commentary match between Turkey and Croatia as they have trouble fielding even 11 players who are fit or not facing any suspension problems but that is often where they are the strongest - when their backs have been against the wall.

The stylish Croatians are starting to believe their own hype in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 quarterfinal between Turkey and Croatia live but what good hype it is as they are probably right in saying that they are one of the favourites for Euro 2008 and can win it. Other than their opening victory against Austria where they looked nervous, they have run rings round the other teams they have played against so far, reminding us how they dismantled England so comprehensively in the qualifying stages. They will have to play much harder in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Turkey and Croatia though as it is not an average team that they face but one that will not submit to difficulties and will give every team a run for their money. The difference in the two teams in discipline could prove decisive in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Turkey and Croatia and the one that can maintain a cool head amidst all the chaos will emerge triumphant.

19/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Venezuela vs Chile Live

The South American qualifiers get heated up in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Venezuela and Chile live as today's defeat of the group leaders have ensured that the group is wide open and anyone of the teams still have a chance after 6 games played by most teams. This live online streaming match will be the sixth game of the campaign for both sides and both will be looking for wins that will put them within touching distance of Paraguay at the top. Venezuela knows that it will not be easy as they play a very tough Chile team but they are confident they can repeat the form that saw them beat Brazil about two weeks ago. They will try to stifle the creativity of their visitors in this live soccer commentary match between Venezuela and Chile and then hit them on the break when it matters most and that will shoot them up the table.

The Chile team are unlikely to allow any of that to happen in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Venezuela and Chile live and grab the three points themselves which would propel them up higher up as well and a realistic chance of qualifying. They have done it before whether home or away so this proposition will not be something that they will find especially tough even if they are facing a form team. They will actually also try to employ the same tactics in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Venezuela and Chile in stifling the other team which in the end might result in both sides canceling each other out which will be quite a boring spectacle. But games like this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Venezuela and Chile are seldom good to watch due to the importance they carry and so much at stake which often results in tight and tentative games as teams do not want to lose for fear of being eliminated.

19/6/2008 Euro 2008 Germany vs Portugal Live

Can Germany overcome the loss of their manager for this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Germany and Portugal live from the sidelines and have the flexibility to cope with the paciest team in Euro 2008 and come out tops? Many fans will be greatly anticipating for some answers from this live online streaming match as they nervously await the fate of their team who have not shone so far and have looked quite ordinary except for their typical strength of spirit in the face of odds stacked against them. Their players have also not played at their top levels and yet they have managed to overcome the odds and be in the quarterfinals along with several other good teams. If they are able to overcome them once again in this live soccer commentary match between Germany and Portugal then the fans could actually start believing that they are able to go further to the finals and quite possibly land the big prize.

Before they can do that though they must overcome a very good team in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 group match between Germany and Portugal live as the fastest side in the competition as Portugal tries to go one further this time compared to the last time the tournament was held. Scolari also wants a final swansong with his players and for his adopted nation and to reward the fans and the Portuguese FA's faith in him by winning Euro 2008 and having another mark on his resume to show he is a true winner. He will leave for Chelsea soon and in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Germany and Portugal he will show the world why he was selected by Abramovich to lead the club to glory and some fantasy soccer. But the thing about Scolari is that he will have to go back to basics if required and we might see a different team in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Germany and Portugal than the one we are used to by now, as he sacrifices flair for effectiveness.

18/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Brazil vs Argentina Live

What a matchup in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Brazil and Argentina live as the two most bemedalled teams in this region play each other again and there is so much anticipation for a game that never fails to surprise. The Brazilians really want to win this live online streaming match not only to push themselves further up the table but also to show that they are still a good team despite recent reversals against supposedly weaker teams. They have played very badly though and have not deserved to get anything out of those matches. If they can fix their attitudes for this live soccer commentary match between Brazil and Argentina there is certainly hope for them to get things right before it is too late otherwise they could see a good coach get sacked once again.

Argentina manager Alfo Basile must be wondering what went wrong previously and in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Brazil and Argentina live he has to quickly get the answer so that he can turn the team into world beaters once again. Perhaps there has been a curse of the top team in the world and the pressure on his players' shoulders are huge but they should easily beat all other teams. They are definitely miles ahead of the team they are facing in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Brazil and Argentina and can easily beat them by two or three goals if they stop wasting their chances and not get played into the game by the crowd. They have to control this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Brazil and Argentina as much as possible and get an iron grip over proceedings so that they can dictate the pace which is something the Brazilians always try to use to play teams off the park.

18/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Ecuador vs Colombia Live

Ecuador are hoping to pull themselves out of the rut in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Ecuador and Colombia live as they have not managed to win for a number of matches now. Despite their confidence going into this live online streaming match they must realise that they are not playing Argentina so whether they can inspire themselves in a lesser setting has to be seen. They were quite lucky to escape with a draw in their last game but were rewarded for their pluckiness. But that might not be enough in this live soccer commentary match between Ecuador and Colombia as they face a team more or less equal to their capabilities but in a much better form than them.

Colombia wants to qualify for the World Cup so they will be pulling out all the stops in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Ecuador and Colombia live to make sure that they collect all the points available and not lose touch with the top four. They were pushed a run down after Uruguay's impressive win over Peru yesterday and now they must return the favour in kind by pushing them back below. If there is one thing about this side it is that they will not give up easily in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Ecuador and Colombia as they have shown in recent matches by not allowing teams to bully them into submission. They can provide the same type of resistance in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Ecuador and Colombia and probably get the win they want out of the match.

18/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Bolivia vs Paraguay Live

Can the bottom placed Bolivia pull themselves up and play well in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Bolivia and Paraguay live and prevent the current leaders from extending their lead at the top? Well, the signs point to it being possible in this live online streaming match as the Bolivians are invariably better at home than away and they know that Paraguay are also not as invincible away from home. But they have to play out of their skins to do so and so far their record has shown that they are not able to do that just yet. There seems to be a sudden loss of good players in the Bolivian side and they must be worried about this live soccer commentary match between Bolivia and Paraguay of conceding too many goals once again and getting thrashed.

No matter the form they are in though, that is unlikely to happen with the leaders in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Bolivia and Paraguay live as they do not score many goals and are more defensively set up for games. That was the key to their win over Brazil last weekend and they will attempt to do so again today and will be confident of doing so again. No one will be surprised if they only manage to win by a single goal in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Bolivia and Paraguay as that has been their gameplan for some time now and they believe defence will win them games. By doing so again in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Bolivia and Paraguay they will prove their belief right once again and also show how solid they are at the back.

18/6/2008 Euro 2008 Spain vs Greece Live

Spain will try to do the same as most of the other group leaders have done in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Spain and Greece live by winning their last remaining group game and keep the winning run going which will do well for confidence. The Spanish team has been unbeaten for 18 matches or more now and in this live online streaming match they have a chance to extend that run even more. They are confident of having an easy ride in this match as they face quite an impotent team which is facing a crisis of confidence. The Spanish also have such a powerful midfield and attack combination for this live soccer commentary match between Spain and Greece that they look capable of blowing every other team out of the water.

Nobody seems to want to pay money to watch the Greeks play at the moment in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 group match between Spain and Greece live and no one will fault them for it because you can get the same quality of football played in the playground with kids. It is not a slight on the Greek team but more on their management team which has looked out of ideas and should have done more with the players they had at their disposal. It is now too late in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Spain and Greece to make any changes to change their fate in Euro 2008 but they can now start planning for the future with revolutionary changes. It might take some time as they need to unearth new talent but it can come starting with this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Spain and Greece as they try to find a new focus to build the team on.

18/6/2008 Euro 2008 Sweden vs Russia Live

Now all that is left to determine the last quarter finalist will be in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Sweden and Russia live as both teams have equal chance of getting through and it is hard to figure out who will be the one. The Swedish team appear to be undecided about whether they should field Ibrahimovic for this live online streaming match as he still has a chronic knee injury and has so far been unable to perform at 100%. But without him, Sweden look quite toothless and unable to score any goals, as has been shown in the past two matches. They have to quickly find a solution to this in this live soccer commentary match between Sweden and Russia and perhaps they might have to ask Elmander to step up the pace with Henrik Larsson and hope that the pairing can help to create more goalscoring chances.

Guus Hiddink as always has tried to shift the pressure away from his side in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 group match between Sweden and Russia live as he realises that his players are still mentally weak and need to foster them to a higher level before they can believe in themselves and compete more. That has always been the problem with Russian national sides and this one is no different despite having so much more talent. If they can get tougher in the head and mix play together well with their attacking pace and power then this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Sweden and Russia should be nothing but a normal day at work for them as they are much more skilled than the team they will be facing today. Their pace in midfield and attack should also help them to overrun them in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Sweden and Russia which can create many openings just like what Spain did to them.

17/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Uruguay vs Peru Live

The hosts will be firing on all barrels for this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Uruguay and Peru live as they have wasted too many home games without getting maximum points and they know that continued wastage will eventually lead to elimination from the race for a place in the next World Cup finals. They will be throwing everything including the kitchen sink at Peru in this live online streaming match as no holds barred attacking football must take the order of the day even for amateur soccer experts like us who know that only by scoring can you win games. They have already shown that they can defend, so why not develop the other aspect of their game and take advantage of the striking talents that they have such as Diego and Forlan. If they can gel together for this live soccer commentary match between Uruguay and Peru they might be able to put a few goals past their rivals and push themselves further up the table.

Their visitors are still hurting from their poor position but might be healing enough for this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Uruguay and Peru live to provide a breakout performance which might symbolise their campaign from now till the future. Before today, they have been abject at best and are stuck near the bottom and have simply not been able to put up any resistance against other teams, until last week with a creditable draw against Colombia. With more effort in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Uruguay and Peru from the visitors they must be able to jumptv and provide inspiration to each other and lead to a incredible win against a team that is higher placed in the table compared to them. If they win this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Uruguay and Peru they will also go above the hosts in the table and that would be quite an achievement and also illustrates how close all the teams are to each other.

17/6/2008 Euro 2008 Netherlands vs Romania Live

The Dutch have secured their place amongst the last eight and they are clearly not that interested in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between the Netherlands and Romania live as the result of it has no consequence on their own fate except for the future if they progress further. In that aspect, this live online streaming match does have a lot of importance for them but the way for them to profit from it is not to win it, but to lose it, and something which their rivals are imploring them not to do. The Dutch know that if they were to lose this game, then they would boot both their main group rivals out of the tournament which might actually be a gift for the fans since those two teams have played badly so far. With this knowledge, it would hardly be surprising if they proceed to throw this live soccer commentary match between the Netherlands and Romania away and allow the weaker of the teams through with them.

The question is, are the Romanians the weakest of the group? If so, they would not be in this position of being better placed to get through.

And it is this problem which they hope to make right in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 group match between the Netherlands and Romania live by letting the world know that they are a capable team in their own way and are contenders for the trophy even if they have yet to win a game so far in the group stages. The strength of this team is their defence, and teams have found it hard to breach it since the qualifying stages of Euro 2008, making them one of the best defensive teams in the world at the moment. If they can once again defend well in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between the Netherlands and Romania and stop the currently red hot Dutch strikers from getting near their goal, we could see one of the biggest upsets in the tournament so far. As always, some might discount that result if it were to happen in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between the Netherlands and Romania as they are playing a Dutch team not running on all cylinders, but it should not take away from their effort in any way.

17/6/2008 Euro 2008 France vs Italy Live

At the start of the tournament nobody would have expected this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between France and Italy live to hold so much significance and importance and at the end of the day it might not even mean much as either team might still not advance even if they win it accordingly as they must. There is more than a win at stake in this live online streaming match and even more than a place in the quarterfinals as either or both teams that does not advance would signal an end of a generation and massive changes need to happen in both teams. The French need to find a renewed balance in the squad and a key player to build the team around, as they have always had individualistic personalities which would render building a team based squad useless as players like Gallas, Benzema and Henry have too much ego. They will definitely not be able to get that in place in time for this live soccer commentary match between France and Italy despite their weak claims of internal unity and will likely struggle again tonight.

The Italians as always, fail to see their own shortcomings and in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 group match between France and Italy live we could once again see the weakness of this team which is the total lack of proper teamwork and cohesiveness at the back which has always been the strength and hallmark of past successful Italian national teams. The Italians have gone from masters of the art of defending to the circus act of trying to stop opposing players from their goalmouth. It is all very disconcerting and disappointing as they have somehow always been entertaining to watch in a studious way with their methodical play and backs to the wall last ditch defending which we might see again in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between France and Italy but probably more the result of desperation. Del Piero has always once again failed to deliver when given the chance although he was starved of service and if that were to continue again in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between France and Italy it should be the last time we see of many current players for future matches.

16/6/2008 Euro 2008 Austria vs Germany

Who would have thought that the established Germany team would be in this position as presented by this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Austria and Germany live as they are in a bad position and need nothing less than a win to be assured of a place in the next round. On top of that, they have to fight the ghost of Cordoba in this live online streaming match and hope that it does not come back to haunt them, as the Austrians achieved a famous win over them in the past. The Germans no doubt have a lot of talent and skill in their side but very unlike of them, they have let one win get to their heads and become arrogant and as a result lost to the Croatians. It has thus set up this live soccer commentary match between Austria and Germany whereby only a win can guarantee them a place and they cannot afford to depend on other results to go their way.

They will have to cope with a plucky Austrian side in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 group match between Austria and Germany live as the hosts have seen a glimmer of hope and are clutching on to it with all their might. They know that their destiny lies in their own hands and to meet it they just need to beat the Germans and they have home ground advantage on their side. It might not be enough or much against a class side in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Austria and Germany but they know they have nothing to lose since they were never expected to have gotten this far before the start of the tournament. They were classed as no hopers but in the end they have done better than the other co-hosts. And in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Austria and Germany they can roll one last throw of the dice and see if they turn up in their favour with the right faces.

16/6/2008 Euro 2008 Poland vs Croatia Live

The whole of Poland will be praying for their national team in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Poland and Croatia live that they are able to get the results they want and get through to the knockout stages of the tournament. After poor performances previously they will have to improve in this live online streaming match and hope that Lady Luck smiles on them and give them the miracle they hope for and that manager Leo Beenhakker wants. He was shrewd enough to let the other teams think they had given up but now he has changed his mind and said that they have a great chance as long as things go their way. Luck often favours the brave and if the Polish national squad are brave in this live soccer commentary match between Poland and Croatia then they can expect some luck to go their way in the game and perhaps to squeak through.

One possible luck for them in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 group match between Poland and Croatia live is that the team they will play against today, the team they need to secure a victory against, is a team that has nothing to play for since they have already qualified. If Poland can meet a team that is not interested in a result, then their chances of beating them and winning will increase. They can try to change their approach to this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Poland and Croatia and try to attack and defend well compared to their last two games. They will also face a weak lineup in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Poland and Croatia and that will help their chances of getting a win and it definitely will provide a boost of confidence to their players who are currently lacking some of that.

15/6/2008 World Cup 2010 United States vs Barbados

It is time for another charge from the hosts in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between the United States and Barbados live for another trip to the World Cup as they attempt to improve their standing in the world game yet again. There is no doubting that they have huge potential to do better in soccer and in this live online streaming match, as there must be an abundance of talent available in the country. They also have the advantage of physical attributes, technology and science which they can ride on to dominance but perhaps the continued little resource and sponsorship in the game in the country has restricted the growth of the game there. It would be a great addition to the game if the United States continue to become better and they would be welcome by many other countries. For the moment at least, they need to deal with this live soccer commentary match between the United States and Barbados and secure their trip to the next World Cup in South Africa as soon as possible.

Their visitors do not have much of a chance in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between the United States and Barbados live as they lack the players and infrastructure to compete against the region's best. It should be an easy win for the hosts and the best hope for the visitors would be to avoid a beating that could get ugly if they do not defend well. Most of the attention on this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between the United States and Barbados will be on the starters for the hosts as there was much testing going on in their friendlies. The coach will settle on a firmer lineup for this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between the United States and Barbados and hopes to avoid more criticism from fans and media with a good performance from the players he will select.

15/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Belize vs Mexico Live

Will the upsets in African football have an influence in the results for this region in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Belize and Mexico live as the smaller home team try to create one of the biggest shocks in world football by beating a buoyant Mexican national team? Not many will stake their life savings on that happening in this live online streaming match as the hosts are clearly not in the same league as their counterparts but that is the magic of football and sports as anything can happen over 90 minutes. If the hosts can somehow put pressure on their visitors and perhaps try to leverage on the fact that they might still be familiarising themselves with the ways of their new manager Sven Goran Eriksson, then the possibility of an upset of some sort could be realised. But their hands will be full trying to cope with their attacking style in this live soccer commentary match between Belize and Mexico as even a team like Peru failed to handle it about a week ago which the Mexican fans really enjoyed.

The Mexicans are buoyed by their last result which immediately erased the pain they felt when beaten by Argentina and now they will go into this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Belize and Mexico with confidence that they still have the ability to do well despite some managerial upheavals. They have a new manager to impress and to get used to but they are nothing but adaptable and if they keep to their natural attacking style then it should be quite another normal day at the office for them. The key for them in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Belize and Mexico will be whether they have the belief to stick to their attacking style as Eriksson has been known to be conservative in away games which should not be attempted in this match against decidedly weaker opposition. If they stick to their guns in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Belize and Mexico then the result should not be too far away from most fans' expectations.

15/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Argentina vs Ecuador Live

The Argentinians hope to wipe out their embarrassing last friendly result with this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Argentina and Ecuador live with a resounding and powerful win to send a message to the rest of the footballing world. They want them to know that they are the best team in the world in this live online streaming match and that with the players they have, nothing can really stop them in their quest to become world champions again in two years' time. In truth, if their best players are available, there is no stopping the Argentinians as the silky skills are hard to defend against, as well as a definite hardness to their physical play. It is this perfect mix of skill and strength which has seen the South Americans dominating consistently and they will once again parade that ability in this live soccer commentary match between Argentina and Ecuador and hope to be at the top of the standings if Paraguay also fails to beat Brazil in the other match.

Not many will give the Ecuadorians much hope in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier betwene Argentina and Ecuador live as they are near the bottom and have not shown any glimpses of an ability to compete with the best in the qualifiers so far. It was not so long ago that they were surprising many in the region but have fallen on hard times as quality players have dried up and replacements have been found wanting. There is no time for them to catch their breath in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Argentina and Ecuador as they have to try to prevent the number one ranked team in the world from running riot against them which could well be the case. It is not hard imagining the hosts scoring many goals in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Argentina and Ecuador although the pride of the visitors could prevent them from doing so on their day and it would be interesting to see how the hosts recover from their previous goalless draw with the United States.

15/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Paraguay vs Brazil Live

It will be a top of the table clash in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Paraguay and Brazil live as the hosts try to defend their top standing and prevent their visitors from gaining a foothold by beating them. There is a strong belief in the home side that they can win this live online streaming match as they face a team reeling from a humiliating defeat to Venezuela in a recent game and confidence might be low in their camp. Paraguay have also played good defensive soccer to reach the top thus far but they must become more expansive in attack in order to last the qualifying rounds as they will be facing quite a number of teams who set out to defend as well as the style of South American football has changed in recent years. If they can create a few clear cut opportunities in this live soccer commentary match between Paraguay and Brazil, score from them and then defend stoutly for the rest of the game it should be a good way to win the game but they have to be wary of the talent in their visitors as always.

The Brazilians are once again feeling the heat in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Paraguay and Brazil live as they have been criticised for the way they surrendered to the Venezuelans recently and manager Dunga will need to exercise a quick pick-me-up for the players to inject fresh confidence into them. When he took the job he knew the measure of the task he was facing up to and so far he has actually done quite well but Brazil always expects to win even in friendlies which is always not the best environment to allow the manager to experiment with players and formations. There is no more testing in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Paraguay and Brazil and the players chosen to start the game must play with more pride and forcefulness. Playing away will also provide more problems to face but they have to be brave in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Paraguay and Brazil or they will never achieve greatness like their predecessors.

15/6/2008 Euro 2008 Switzerland vs Portugal Live

The co hosts are already out of the tournament and have no bearing on this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Switzerland and Portugal live but they will be playing for pride and to reward their fans with their patience and faith in supporting them throughout a tournament that started in disappointment and tears but should end with some tears of joy. The omens certainly did not start well at first with the exit of their star player in tears but this live online streaming match should provide some respite as they will play a weakened Portuguese lineup. With the latter already qualified, they now have a chance to beat a more established team and get some points on the board. It will not be easy as they still face some classy players but there is no doubting the commitment of the Swiss side. They will put their all into this live soccer commentary match between Switzerland and Portugal to make sure they leave the tournament with their heads held up high.

The Portuguese were sensational in their path through the tournament but not many will expect to see their best in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Switzerland and Portugal live as they will probably rest some players before the quarterfinals to give them a breather. They combined for pace and power in blowing away two of their group rivals and have now been installed as one of the top favourites for the tournament together with the Netherlands. If they can continue with the same displays in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Switzerland and Portugal then it would really frighten the rest of the teams as it means the reserve team is just as good. Although they might be facing a weaker team in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Switzerland and Portugal most people are still of the opinion that they will win the game and unfortunately leave the co hosts with the wooden spoon.

15/6/2008 Euro 2008 Turkey vs Czech Republic Live

The signs are not good for the Turks in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Turkey and Czech Republic live as they are going into this match with a lot of personnel concerns such as injuries which will hamper their chances of progressing. They will not have all their best players available for this live online streaming match and it will make the job of beating the Czechs much harder than if they had their top players lining up. However, they appear to have momentum going into the game as they have won their last game, albeit in slightly fortunate circumstances, and will ride on the adrenalin into this game. They do know however that they will need more than just momentum in this live soccer commentary match between Turkey and Czech Republic in order to lay claim to all three points which will push them through with Portugal, and that a draw would simply not be enough and leave their fate in the hands of fortune.

The Czechs on the other hand are still confident of getting through to the next round with this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Turkey and Czech Republic live as they have a full fit squad from which to choose from. But they have to note their performances in their first two games which have been anything but impressive and their strikers seem to be out of form with Koller and Baros both ineffective for most of the minutes played. They need to sort themselves out and get their act together in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Turkey and Czech Republic if they wish to help their country get through to the next round and it would need a great effort against their fiercely competitive rivals. Petr Cech has also reiterated his desire not to suffer another disappointment in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Turkey and Czech Republic, especially after his dismal end of season experience with his club.

14/6/2008 Euro 2008 Greece vs Russia Live

The defending champions are on the verge of being eliminated from the competition in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Greece and Russia live and they need to quickly change their strategy or risk being one of the fastest eliminated champions in history. They are confused about their tactics for this live online streaming match and if they do not figure it out soon, they could be in for a hiding by the Russians who are itching to get started. Otto Rehhagel is also very frustrated with his team's inability to follow instructions although it must be said that always trying to use the same formula does not always get you results. They need to restore their strikers in the lineup for this live soccer commentary match between Greece and Russia and give them license to roam and attack, and that is the only way to win games.

The Russians want to get this started and over with in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Greece and Russia live and restore their pride and belief in themselves after a loss to Spain in their first game. Missing their best striker out with injury, the Russians sorely lacked the creativity of their playmaker who will still be suspended for the game. Guus Hiddink will need to come up with something fresh and effective in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Greece and Russia fast in order to stay employed after so much expectation from fans upon his appointment. There will be no more fingerpointing after this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Greece and Russia if the latter loses again as the blame must rest squarely on the shoulders of Hiddink who failed to lift his team above the ordinary.

14/6/2008 Euro 2008 Sweden vs Spain Live

Sweden are confident of breaking down their opponents in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Sweden and Spain live even though they, along with the rest of the world, witnessed how the Spaniards were awesome in full flow. But they also understand that Spain would be facing a totally different opponent in this live online streaming match and one that is more experienced at this level and probably more streetwise than the Russians. If the Swedes dare to play it lower on the field and stifle the pace of the Spanish frontline, then in all probability they might be able to neutralise the effect of Torres and Villa. It will take a lot of effort and concentration in this live soccer commentary match between Sweden and Spain for them to be able to do that but there is no other choice if they hope to get something out of the game.

Torres must be thanking his time in England with Liverpool before this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Sweden and Spain live as it has enabled him to realise which situations he is most effective in. The problem is that he might be quickly rendered useless against teams who know how to defend against quick counters and that would give Spain a lot of problems during games. They sometimes over pass the ball and if they were to do that in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Sweden and Spain then they could be in for a rude awakening and realise that they cannot get past the solid Swedish backline. There will also be answers in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Sweden and Spain as to whether the latter is a real challenger for the Euro 2008 trophy or just another great pretender once again.

14/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Syria vs Iran Live

Many have called Group A as the group of death but this Group E is the real one as will be shown in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Syria and Iran live where both teams have as much chance to get through as every other team in the group. The Syrians will be focused on this live online streaming match at home and hope to get another three home points to negate their collapse in the previous game. They are also eager to prove that their earlier results were not a fluke and that they can compete. They will throw everyone forward in this live soccer commentary match between Syria and Iran in an attempt to force Iran into mistakes and thus leading to openings.

Iran is one of the best teams in the region and they will attempt to prove that again in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Syria and Iran live as they expected to dominate the group but have found the going very tough. They still have a solid group of players who are capable of one last push and they will want to match their neighbours who won the Asian Cup. Whether the shift in superiority in the region has changed will be shown in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Syria and Iran as admittedly the latter has an aging team. They need to unearth new stars soon who can help them in future matches if not this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Syria and Iran so that future qualification can continue.

14/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Turkmenistan vs South Korea Live

It should be confirmation of their way into the next round for the Asian kingpins after this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Turkmenistan and South Korea live as they face a weak team in this game and another three points should assure them of going through. The only thing to note is that they will be playing this live online streaming match away and that could prove to be a little hindrance to them as they have not played well away from home. They also need to find some way to reestablish their dominance of the region and whether it requires a foreign or local coach is not the issue but how to get the players' mentality to change again after the old traditions have seeped back in when Hiddink left. Hiddink had made his players then realise that they can compete with the world's best, but the traditional and conservative mindset of the Koreans have returned and they show their European counterparts too much respect and there should be no more bowing of the heads to them. They must also do the same in their own Asian region starting with this live soccer commentary match between Turkmenistan and South Korea and getting an easy win.

If they can establish this kind of mindset in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Turkmenistan and South Korea live then there is no reason why we cannot see a huge margin victory for the away side. The South Koreans definitely have a superior team and individuals compared to their hosts so there is no question about that. Using that superiority in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Turkmenistan and South Korea should assure them of at least two to three goals early in the game. They can then use the rest of the live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Turkmenistana dn South Korea to blood in new and less experienced players to allow them some exposure at this level.

14/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Thailand vs Japan Live

Surprisingly, the Japanese are not yet assured of a place in the next round but with this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Thailand and Japan live it should be assured by the end of the game, as long as they do not play as poorly as they did last week away. They might be treated to the same kind of ploy in this live online streaming match against Thailand and that is to try to exploit their surprising lack of pace in the side. They might actually need to start defensively and snuff the life out of their hosts before hitting them on the break with methodical calculation. This would be a great tactic against their hosts in this live soccer commentary match between Thailand and Japan and would at the end of the day allow them some space to break open the other team's defence.

Japan also needs to exploit their star players more often in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Thailand and Japan live as they have not delivered much throughout this group stage and it has been more of a united team effort so far getting them the results. There is nothing wrong with a team effort but sometimes you need that special spark from a star player to turn tight games such as in the last one against Oman when they would have done with some of that in a very tight game. If this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Thailand and Japan turns out to be such a type of game, then having star players like Nakamura who can deliver more often on the big stage would be very helpful to their cause. Somehow they have to find a solution to their problems which has been a lack of delivery by big name European or locally based players and do it quickly in time for this crucial live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Thailand and Japan so that they can enjoy the benefits and rewards from doing so.

14/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Qatar vs Australia Live

After an impressive win in China, Qatar now hopes to snatch another win in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between Qatar and Australia live and advance to the next round. They have a very tough live online streaming match on their hands given the power of the Australians and them being in a great position to seal their trip to the next round with another win. Qatar can try to use the same formula that Iraq had so successfully pulled off against the same opponent for this game. If they are able to do so, then this live soccer commentary match between Qatar and Australia should see the latter fall for a second match in a row to Middle Eastern opponents.

And that is something that they want to avoid in this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between Qatar and Australia live as it would destroy all their hard work so far in getting to the top of the group and qualification near certain yet so close yet so far. The Australians had needed just one point in their last game to assure themselves of a place but were unfortunate not to have gotten it. Now they need to regroup and attack this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Qatar and Australia with the same fervour and passion they did in earlier group games. The method is very much what has always been the case and if they can stick to it in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Qatar and Australia then there is no question that they will join the likes of Uzbekistan in the next round.

14/6/2008 World Cup 2010 Live China vs Iraq

The Chinese have to make a concerted last ditch effort in this live online and radio commentary World Cup 2010 qualifier between China and Iraq live after losing their last game which practically put paid to their hopes of making it through to the next round. Now they need to not only win this live online streaming match against Iraq, they have to win it by a good margin and also win their last game against Australia. It all looks very straightforward but in actual fact it looks impossible based on the very poor display they put in their loss at home to Qatar. All this cannot be said to be unexpected given that their manager is not known for having any excellent track record and will probably make mistakes again on the lineup for this live soccer commentary match between China and Iraq which will probably gift the game to their opponents eventually.

Iraq have turned their fortunes around with one result against Australia and are now favourites to win this live commentary and online World Cup 2010 qualifier between China and Iraq and prove that they are worthy Asian champions. There was much doubt growing within the players after early negative results which seemed to have dashed their hopes of going through to the next round. But they have gotten their heads down and worked hard and it could culminate in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between China and Iraq with a good win that should make them one of the favourites to go through. There is also huge belief in their supporters that they will indeed end up at the World Cup via this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between China and Iraq and go on to make an impact on the world stage.

13/6/2008 Euro 2008 Netherlands vs France Live

The Dutch are still riding on the wave of euphoria for this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between the Netherlands and France live and fans will be telling you that with that usually comes a fall with a loud thud. Confidence is undeniably high in the Dutch camp for this live online streaming match as they look back on the excellence of performance they had against the Italians. They expect to be able to repeat the same style they displayed so elegantly on the field and with devastating results. However they also fail to remember that they will be playing a really defensively tight team in this live soccer commentary match between the Netherlands and France and it could spell the beginning of the end for them if they get too haughty.

The French are largely keeping mum after failing to impress yet again in an opening game and they will let their football do the talking in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between the Netherlands and France live as they have always done in the past and still ended up doing well. If anyone remembered the last World Cup, France also drew their opening game to much critique but still ended up in the final of the tournament and could have won if not for the sending off of Zidane. The only worry for them now in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between the Netherlands and France is their impotency in front of goal and who can take over the mantle and score for them regularly? The answer so far it seems has been no one as none of the strikers appear to be ready to break their duck more often than sitting on the bench looking grumpy. There certainly are a lot of issues that Domenach needs to sort out prior to this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between the Netherlands and France but he can take heart that his group is a mentally strong one.

13/6/2008 Euro 2008 Italy vs Romania Live

Roberto Donadoni's head is on the chopping block in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Italy and Romania live and he needs to come up with a perfect solution to the world champion's woes or risk being sacked. There might be a complete change in formation and line up for them in this live online streaming match with the team moving towards a more attacking strategy with players who can score. This means that Del Piero and Cassano could both start, and the place of Luca Toni is in doubt after he claimed that the pair should start and it basically means he is toothless without them although he tried to mitigate that by saying that with the pair late in the game Italy still failed to score. But it is now or never for them in this live soccer commentary match between Italy and Romania and there is no point in being conservative and defensive and they should throw everyone forward whenever possible to breach the Romanians' defence.

Romania will be sitting back and inviting the world champions to attack them in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Italy and Romania live as they believe their stout defence can cope and will try to hit the Azzurris on the break. The signs are that this will probably be another stalemate considering both teams were toothless in their previous games but it is hard to gauge from game to game. If Romania were to change their style for this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Italy and Romania things might change as they have players who are able to turn the match with some skill but none of that has been evident so far in the competition. They will need more than Adrian Mutu to crack open any team and they seem to be over reliant on him. If they can share the burden with other players for this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Italy and Romania i might be possible that they can cause the Italians more problems and beat them.

12/6/2008 Euro 2008 Austria vs Poland Live

Just as we asked for support for the other co-host yesterday once again we ask for the same support for this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Austria and Poland live in the hopes that at least one of the co-hosts are able to go on to the quarterfinals. While it might be a far fetched dream and certainly one with much difficulty, it can be done in this live online streaming match as was seen in the game yesterday when the Swiss came within a whisker of having some hope of getting through if not for a last minute goal. The Austrians have also played better than the other co-host in general so there is some quality that can back our support. They will know for sure that they have a chance of winning this live soccer commentary match between Austria and Poland as based on current form, they are much better than the Polish team.

There has to be some soul searching going on for the Poles in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Austria and Poland live as they discover once again that they lack the moral fibre to launch any sustained bid for European glory on the international stage. While no one is expecting the Poles to actually win the competition nor progress too far, there are concerns that they are taking up precious space with their poor performances in competition finals. Of course, whoever performs in the qualifiers deserves to be in their position but if they display the same poor play again in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Austria and Poland then they should give up future qualification to other teams who could perhaps provide more life to the tournament. At the moment, anytime a team draws to play Poland, there is a feeling that it would be a guaranteed win for them. It might not be that easy for the co-hosts in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Austria and Poland but they know better than anyone that this is their biggest chance for glory.

12/6/2008 Euro 2008 Croatia vs Germany Live

Everyone likes a fairy tale in sports so let us try to create one starting with this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Croatia and Germany live by providing our fullest support to the Croatians who are capable of playing some of the most technically brilliant football on their day. They have not started Euro 2008 well and in this live onine streaming match they need to play out of their skin in order to combat a Germany team on song in all areas. We should provide our voice to the Croatians and cheer them on, as they have some sort of easy going style to their football which might have come from their manager's time in England with some of the more cultured footballing sides in the EPL. They do know that their backs are against the wall for this live soccer commentary match between Croatia and Germany and perhaps that might stir the desire within them to an improved result compared to the last one.

The Germans are not without worth of our support either as they have become so exciting to watch as they will show again in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Croatia and Germany live by playing a much more attacking game which most of us would not have expected from them. They also have good young players who have grown together throughout the years and now are reaping the rewards with great teamwork and an almost telepathic understanding with one another whenever they stride onto the pitch. If that cohesiveness clicks again in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Croatia and Germany there is probably very little chance of Croatia beating them as nothing comes between a united team and success. But such things are not guaranteed every game and it takes some hard work to continue building on that foundation. But it is the Germans we are talking about here and there will be little doubt that they cannot do the same in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Croatia and Germany.

11/6/2008 Euro 2008 Switzerland vs Turkey Live

Nobody likes the host of a tournament to be out early so I ask that we all put our weight behind them in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Switzerland and Turkey live and try to will them to victory as they really need our support. Not only will they have their best player out of this live online streaming match, they also have a very tough team to play against which they must absolutely not lose in order to stand a chance of progressing. If we could all take one match to support them, then this is the one and definitely it would help to lift the spirits of the players to know that the world is behind them. Knowing that in the back of their minds could spur them on to a great performance in this live soccer commentary match between Switzerland and Turkey and continued good will and cheer in the tournament in the country itself.

While we give our support to the co host we should also not forget that the team they play are also a good team in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Switzerland and Turkey live and it is not that we do not like Turkey. We do, and they are a great addition to any competition as they bring life and variety to any that they join and qualify for. They also have many great players that are key players in their respective clubs and certainly will show us again why that is so in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Switzerland and Turkey and no doubt entertain us with their skills. But they are not the hosts this time and while they are a good team, we might not necessarily miss their presence if they do not qualify. They will have their chance in the future, but for now in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Switzerland and Turkey we should all try to provide our fullest support to the co-host for the future of the competition.

11/6/2008 Euro 2008 Czech Republic vs Portugal Live

There is so much on the table for this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Czech Republic and Portugal live that both teams will be going for each other's throats trying to secure their passage to the next round. There will be a lot of intensity in this live online streaming match with two very different teams but filled with players of a high intellectual level that will try to manipulate each other. They know that the championship is up for grabs after the defending champion lost last night in horrible fashion. If they can take one step at a time starting with this live soccer commentary match between Czech Republic and Portugal, then they will have a very stable platform to work on from the next round onwards.

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to be the most influential player for his team in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Czech Republic and Portugal live as he was the main difference between them and Turkey in their first game. He dribbled past virtually every player in that team and made a lot of them look like amateurs even though they were all established professionals. It might be a bit different for him this time in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Czech Republic and Portugal as the Czech players might try to put an even more physical style on him which has been shown to frustrate the winger in the past. However he has learned from experience and it might be a different reaction from him this time in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Czech Republic and Portugal and it could also backfire on the Czechs if overdone.

10/6/2008 Euro 2008 Greece vs Sweden Live

The final first batch of first group stage games comes to an end with this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Greece and Sweden live as the champions take on one of the weaker challengers. There will not be as much interest in this live online streaming match as it would have in other more high profile games, but it is still an important one as it will show the credibility of both sides. Greece being the champion would want to be able to do well again, and they showed in their qualifiers that they are a force to be reckoned with, by sweeping easily to top spot and scoring lots of goals. If they are able to maintain that sort of form in this live soccer commentary match between Greece and Sweden, there is a strong possibility that they should be able to emerge with a strong win and a good start to their Euro 2008.

Their opponents in this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Greece and Sweden live are trying to revive their fortunes on the international stage after being one of the top teams in the 1990's and now they have an aging striker come back to help them in their quest. Henrik Larsson will always be remembered in Manchester United for his time there and the number of important goals that he scored during his loan spell. The defenders he has to face today in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Greece and Sweden will now be made to remember the kind of skills and poaching instinct the Swede has in abundance. If he is able to produce that kind of performance in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Greece and Sweden once again to fire his team to the next stage, he would probably get a statue erected in the country to show the nation's appreciation for his contributions.

10/6/2008 Euro 2008 Spain vs Russia Live

The last group in Euro 2008 kicks off in this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between Spain and Russia live as Spain manager Aragones tries to lead his country to glory in his last competition in charge of the national team. After so many years without any silverware to show for it, this live online streaming match would represent the beginning of the end for the Spanish coach who is known for his eccentricity and at times brilliance as a soccer tactician. He has not been able to transfer much of that genius to this level of football management even though he has at his disposal some of the best players in Spanish football history. He has one last chance this time and it starts with this live soccer commentary match between Spain and Russia as to whether he has been a quack or a true soccer manager that can bring the best out of talent.

Guus Hiddink has had no such problems for this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Spain and Russia live as even though he is expected to do well with Russia due to his past successes with other teams, he does not have anything to really live up to in relation to the team's history. Russia has not done well in international tournaments in modern times and that had led them to appoint Hiddink to lead the team after his previous achievements with teams like South Korea and Australia. With his good mind and reading of the game, Hiddink will know full well who his best players will be for this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Spain and Russia and would have told them to believe in themselves and trust in the glory of their nation. The players in turn will look to their club football which has been shining on the European stage this season, and try to pass that on to this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Spain and Russia so as to help their country do well in Euro 2008 and finally, see some achievements.

9/6/2008 Euro 2008 Live Netherlands vs Italy

The second game of the day in the Group of Death is this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between the Netherlands and Italy live as perhaps the match of the first round of group games with these two teams amongst the best in the world. It is a rarity for such a big match like this live online streaming match so early in the competition and fans will be lapping it up after some very lacklustre games so far in the past two days since the tournament started. The attack oriented Netherlands were very confident that they would be able to win the competition earlier on, but after some injuries to players like Arjen Robben, they are not so sure right now. Those injuries have been a huge blow to the team and they are now hesitant about their results for this live soccer commentary match between the Netherlands and Italy as they do not want to jinx themselves or make themselves look like a team that is full of hot air.

The Italians are now the more confident of the two teams heading into this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between the Netherlands and Italy live as even though they have also met with some unfortunate injuries to key players, they have not proclaimed themselves to be the best just yet, but are still quite sure of themselves to be able to perform at peak levels that might help them win the trophy. They will also know that their rivals today are starting to feel nervous and unsure of themselves, so they might have an edge going into the game which they can take advantage of. Their long serving striker Del Piero is also itching to start this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between the Netherlands and Italy and has said that even if he were not selected to start, he would do his utmost to help the team in any way he can, as he tries to erase past disappointments. With players eager to play well and start, the Italians look to be one of the best prepared mentally in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between the Netherlands and Italy and they might once again be one of the teams to reach the finals at the end of a month long competition, something which might once again surprise many in the football world.

9/6/2008 Euro 2008 Live Romania vs France

The Group of Death kicks off with this live online and radio commentary Euro 2008 group match between France and Romania live with many supporting the French as usual while the Romanians are still an unknown side at this stage. They do look very impressive in previous games and if they can replicate the same form in this live online streaming match against the favourites French they might end up causing a huge result in world soccer. The key point about the Romanians is that they are not only skillful on the ball, they have a unpredictable quality to their play which is sometimes why they were referred to as the Brazilians of Europe in the past, even though that mantle has now been taken over by Portugal. Whether we will get to see the same kind of entertainment from them in this live soccer commentary match between Romania and France will depend on what kind of team they put out. If they field the same team that played in the qualifiers, then we could possibly enjoy a very good match ahead.

The French are relaxed and eager for this live commentary and online Euro 2008 match between Romania and France live to start as soon as possible so as to settle their nerves which have not been helped by constant media speculation on whether they will be successful or not. The French consider their right that they will be one of the top teams in the competition, whether they perform or not, but they might be missing their midfield general Patrick Viera and despite what some of the players say, they will miss him if he does not get to play. The pressure is mounting on their manager ahead of this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast match between Romania and France as his head is on the chopping block if he fails to deliver yet again, and getting to the finals is clearly not enough for some. He has not helped his reputation as well by making some very strange decisions ahead of this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast match between Romania and France but he is clearly not lacking in any confidence of his managerial abilities so the world has to wait and see what happens.

8/6/2008 Mexico vs Peru Live

Will we see another packed stadium for this live online and radio commentary friendly match between Mexico and Peru live as we witnessed in the last game the home side had against the top ranked team in the world? It will be quite a scene to behold as thousands turn up for this live online streaming match against a weaker Peru team but with the appointment of the new Mexican national manager in Swede Sven Goran Eriksson, many fans might want to see what the man has to offer for their national team. Will he improve them or turn them into laughing stocks like what he encountered with England? These and many more questions might be answered in full or in part after this live soccer commentary friendly between Mexico and Peru as we see what kind of impression he will leave on both the fans as well as the team in general. There are many who would say Eriksson does not have much of a clue but time and again at club level he has surprised so now he has another chance on the international stage.

There will also be additional pressure on him and the team in this live commentary and online friendly between Mexico and Peru live as they face a South American side which their fans will expect to beat in their own backyard. Peru would not be considered one of the more established international sides but they have managed to get some impressive results in recent years despite limited resources and talent. There is very little pressure on them in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast friendly between Mexico and Peru especially since they will play away from home and away from the comforts of their own ground and fans. If they can build on that factor and turn the pressure on their opponents in this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast friendly between Mexico and Peru then it might end up as a terrible start to Eriksson's reign as manager and put pressure on him from the get go.

8/6/2008 United States vs Argentina Live

This live online and radio commentary friendly match between the United States and Argentina live will be the last for both sides as they finish up their practise matches for the nearing World Cup matches they have to play in order to qualify for South Africa 2010. The United States have toiled and slogged to the best of their abilities but have suffered defeats in friendlies and will probably do so again in this live online streaming match against a very established and skilled team in Argentina. But that is not to mean that there is no talent or ability in the USA side and they certainly do have that but will need to overcome some sort of mental block and recognise that they have the resources and infrastructure to do better. If they are somehow able to find more money to put into the game, there is certainly enough fan support to help them achieve success such as in this live soccer commentary friendly between the United States and Argentina which under the status quo conditions would never be imagined.

The Argentinians were incredibly impressive in their previous game and excelled under pressure, much as what most will expect again in this live commentary and online friendly between the United States and Argentina live as they once again face a team that is realistically inferior to them and should be able to overcome with relative ease. If they field the same starting lineup again with the likes of Messi, there is no question as to what the end result would be. There were some defensive mistakes made in that game which the manager would hope not be repeated in this live commentary and live streaming radio telecast friendly between the United States and Argentina as it would be a letdown and end up being poor preparations prior to them resuming their World Cup qualifying group games in the very near future. On the whole though, if they keep to their shape and do not indulge in silly confrontations, there is no question what the result of this live commentary and live streaming TV broadcast friendly between the United States and Argentina will be as both the American and Argentinian fans are treated to some great football.
