Netherlands V. Italy

I've been trying to catch Euro '08 games on ESPN classic and the first great game has to be Netherlands V. Italy.



No great game is complete without a bit of controversy. The BBC has a run down on the issues are surrounding Van Nistelrooy's opening goal.

The following two goals didn't have any taint of controversy. The Dutch beat the Italians at their own game - the rapid counter attack.

The teams I would like to see go all the way are Spain and the Netherlands.
