Euro 2008 officially kicked off yesterday morning 12am, sunday... i was really looking forward to this tournament! i almost miss the first games, no thanks to astro!apparently, they are in the process of upgrading their service by changing the old astro card with the new one. since my mum paid my astro bills (well, she did insists on installing astro n paying for it..hehe), they sent the card to Klang instead of Penang! i realized this on tuesday! so, i quickly asked mum to send my via Post Laju. she only did it on thurday, so i managed to get on Friday.. thanks to the Mr Post Laju ( who called me during my Friday prayer, and curiously asked me why i am not at home? ahahaha... kantoi skipping solat dude!) . Luckily i didnt hav a class that evening, so i cud juz rush back home to get it...
so.. back to the story..on saturday nite, i invited a couple of friends home to play Pro Evo 2008 for a couple of hours prior to kick-off.. after few hours of enthusiastic pro-evo-ing (but mostly shouting to each others since we played 5 people at one go thru the technology of multi-tap!! hehe), the first game started. it was swiss vs czech
overall, the game was ok-ok.. not really the best of match since not many stars were in both teams.. rosicky (probably the only star in czech team, besides than Petr Cech) missed the match.. for the swiss, so much are expected of them but catastrophe strucked them in the form of injury to their most-influential player...alexander frei...he was knocked down in the first half.. he ruptured a ligament which wud rule him out of the tornament entirely... so sad for the swiss... but never underestimate the power of host team.. they might bounce back thru sheer teamwork.. like what greece and south korea did... the game ended in favor of czech.. 1-0..
the second game between portugal n turkey was more entertaining... but i missed this game, due to strong urge to sleep... haha... my friends was watching the match while i was fast dozing off... huhu...
so many games for the coming weeks..i cudnt possibly watch all of them u noe... but i will watch spain definitely... Torres my man... hope u score dude... go spain!
