With the tactics and teams playing hoofball making it through and the so called footballing teams crashing and burning, devoid of any individual moments of brilliance, no charachters, boring coaches lack of beauties in the crowd I have been left rather bored by these championships.
What is your eductaed opinions on this trivial matter?
Poorest Euro Championships, I have seen!

If there are poorer teams then the big teams will stop being so cagey and go for it resulting in more exciting football!!!
Czech Rep and Greece and England poor teams, need I say more!

I've quite enjoyed it to be honest. Regardless, it cant be worse than 2004! Now that was a boring tournament.

I think it's been great so far, no 0-0's yet
There is always going to be a few teams that don't play expansive exciting Football, you can't expect 16 teams to all have great styles.
Portugal
Germany
Croatia
Russia
France
Even Holland, Czech rep, and Sweden have played some good stuff and been involved in exciting games
The host nations, even though both finishing last haven't been afraid to just have a go and run at the opposition either.
The only teams who haven't been great to watch is Greece, ROI, England and Spain

Michael Laudrup wasn't even in the squad in 92.
As for the 'memorable moments', imo most of them are produced in the knockout rounds.
