Euro Championship's 2012 DAY 11!

What decides who goes through if they're equal on points?

Spain have the best GD but are second?!

don't understand

It's complicated really

Remember the first 4 tie breakers are among the teams who are tied, not the overall group results. Then after those they go to the games against all teams in the group.

Playing Silva as CF? Strange

 

[BulgarianPride]

why are they saying italy are top surely spain are top?

anyone help?

Italy if results stay the same will have 5 points whereas Spain and Croatia have 4.

I imagine that if two teams are tied and they can't bed separated by head to head then GD is he decider, which put Spain ahead of Croatia.

Both Spain and Croatia will have 5 points if they draw.

 

[Ruhr]

Italy 1-1 Spain
Italy 1-1 Croatia
Spain 0-0 Croatia

Italy 2-2 2
Spain 1-1 2
Croatia 1-1 2

Ireland doesn´t count

He played really well for Chelsea a lot last season (okay his finishing was quite poor) and his movement tonight has been excellent but Iniesta/Xavi wont slip the ball through to him (or David who keeps making similar runs). He's not the player he was; but he's far from finished (he's never had pace).

can you stop talking out of your arse please? it's irritating.

So Torres didn't have games where he worked really hard and had great movement but his finishing was poor last season then?
So he's not making good runs tonight?
So David isn't making good runs tonight?
So Xavi/Iniesta keep finding passes in behind the Croatia back four?
So Torres still is the player he was; but is finished and always has been blisteringly fast?

Nice one pal!

Why not add something to the conversation instead eh?!

he did have games yes, but he wasn't THAT Impressive, and his movement wasn't THAT Great.
he's made a couple, but then stopped running when through balls have been played.
David's made a couple and been Spain's best player.
No they don't, but then again Torres doesn't offer himself all that often.
Torres was very fast before his injuries, he's clearly lost several yards of pace due to them.

He raped Scotland in a friendly playing the Messi role.

I am very confused as well. What are these weird rules?

Mini league between the 3
Atm Italy have 2 goals in the 2 games against Spain and Croatia
Spain and Croatia only have one in the corresponding games
Spain and Croatia would be equal but Spain would go through on GD v Ireland

I would of been very tempted to put Llorente on.

 

[Feed-The-Goat]

He doesnt have much faith in Llorente does he.

 

[Ducado]

So if it stays 0-0 Spain go through?
