Fido said:Took the soft option and recorded the second half to watch this morning. Much relieved I wasn't a supporter of Greece or Ivory Coat. Tension unbearable in the closing minutes.
I have to say I didn't enjoy, but the joy on my face is quite obvious today.
That and the fact that I have a client meeting in a bit and have no voice.
After I saw the goal go in, the room just went silent from all the screaming.
Finally, for a country that has suffered so much in the past 6 years, a bit of joy won't go a miss!

Some real barnstormer shooting from the Greeks and the goal posts took a fair old battering. Felt very sorry for the Ivory Coast, going out to an injury time penalty is harsh, but overall the result seems fair to me.
The shots on the posts would have been excellent goals had they gone in, but I bet it must be hard to get that sort of precision.
