EURO 2016 Qualifying

Oh, even though we weren't close to deserving points from the match, the non existent penalty on Bendtner just before you made it 1-0 really bothers me. It just seemed clear as day.

Good game, [MENTION=695]Galning[/MENTION], well deserved win, that could probably have been slightly bigger, had you not completely conceded initiative during the second half.
We were predictably pathetic, and the sheer amount of crosses in the second half was mind boggling.

Tuesday's going to be a thriller!

We were better than I expected. 2-1 is a good result as we were always going to concede. Let's hope we can finish the job in Kopenhagen

Yeah, you actually played really well to be honest.
About the finishing it in Copenhagen part, we probably won't agree, though.

I hope we manage to turn it around tomorrow

Im not really joining the hate søderlund bandwagon. You see, people scream for his head on a plate, but forgets that all our strikers are just as mediocre and that we havent had a reliable goalscorer for eternity. We all know Søderlund is awful, but so is the rest.

The rest doesn't shoot the ball like they're passing it back to the GK.

He should be benched. The rest haven't played 25 odd matches and scored ONE single goal either so there's that too.

This might be a stupid question, but is football the main (most popular) sport in scandinavian countries ?

I thought it was drinking

Football most participated sport, but cross-country skiing prob quite a lot more popular I guess.

But that's simply because Norway does so well in it, dominating completely.

 

[Barcaman]

I'd say icehockey is up there in Sweden and Finland.

Yep, it is.
We're fond of handball too, though... God knows why.

Handball is a good sport to watch
Used to enjoy it when Egypt was a powerhouse back in the 90's

Interesting, I taught it would be marginal compared to winter sports.

Played handball once a loooong time ago in primary school P.E class. Hit my class mate in the eye when I tried to pass the ball to him lol.

It's an okay sport to watch sometimes, but don't like it too much.

I usually avoid it. I mean, I can appreciate the whole skill based aspect of the, but it just does nothing for me. Wierd as it may seem, if pressed, I actually prefer women's handball to men's, as it relies less on sheer physicality and more on skill, as I see it.

When considering Scandinavia as a whole, you need to realize that Denmark has on average a week or so of snow a year these days - If that much. Our winters are more often than not just soggy, dreary, periods of grey, windy misery.
