I’m not that big of a soccer fan, but I will watch the international events like the World Cup, or the Euro 2008 series, and I just want to say my new favourite underdog/dark horse team who I’m pulling to get to the next round is Romania. Lots of enthusiasm and spirit and they actually do try to score goals.
UPDATE: Now that the Netherlands has advanced to the next round, they should be resting a lot of their first-stringers against Romania. If Romania wins, it doesn’t matter what happens in the France-Italy game. It would be kind of sweet to see both 2006 World Cup finallists knocked out at the same time.
