Right decision in the end but the reprieve was for the ball going out of play. All well that ends well.

Edge Art - Euro 2008 Competition , by seidbereit on Jun 22, 2008 10:39:40 GMT 1, ;D Happy with that, they more than deserved it... Russia v Turkey final please
Very doubtful that Turkey will make it, I reckon they'll get murdered by Germany (three most influential players suspended, loads of injuries including the captain in the last few minutes of the game). 3 clear goal victory for the Germans I'm afraid. Russia on the other hand look an extremely good bet. Absolutely mustard.
On the reffing decision last night, German TV has the Swiss ex-ref Urs Meyer (I think that's his name) as one of their pundits and he thinks the ref last night will probably have quite a few problems with UEFA because of his decision last night as he thinks the ref pulled the second yellow card for Kolodin for dangerous play which (according to the laws of the game apparently) counts regardless of whether the ball is in play or not so therefore there was no way the cards could have been withdrawn.
Apparently the only case in which it would have been permissible to withdraw the yellow/red card would have been if the tackle had been adjudged to be a tactical foul which Urs Meyer thinks was extremely unlikely given the way he went in for the ball and the position on the pitch where it happened.
Don't really care myself, was nice to see the player staying on the pitch personally and particularly for the ref to be big enough to change his decision regardless of whether he was right to or not, as it wasn't a dirty game and I'd quite like to see a few more of those eighty-yard attempts on goal in the semis against Italy or Spain (Italy I reckon, as I think Spain will go the same way as the other group winners who rested their teams in the third group match and paid for it with their loss of rhythm in the quarters).

Edge Art - Euro 2008 Competition , by Harveyn on Jun 25, 2008 21:33:36 GMT 1, I don't think its going to matter as Germany do not deserve to get to the final. If Spain and Germany both make the final then thats 12 points and you get a further 10 points for the winner of the final which I have Spain. Thats 22 points up for grabs.
Thats said it will be criminal if Turkey do not win this.

True, but Turkey also got beat in the group stages (by Portugal) and only just scraped through in 90 minutes against Croatia. Plus, although it was a great comeback, I did think they were quite fortunate to beat the Czechs.
For me, Holland were the team of the tournament, right up until they got ripped apart by Russia, who by right assume that accolade... until tonight at least.
Great tournament though!!
