One Chance For EK!

The Netherlands National Football Team played again yesterday against the team of Sweden. It was the most interesting game this week for Euro 2012 (EK) Qualifiers. Because the Sweden team had only one chance to go for EK. Sweden should take one or more points from this match at home vs Netherlands to play in Euro 2012 play-offs. Hungary had chances for second place if they win vs Finland and Sweden loose from Netherlands. Luckily, the Netherlands was already qualified for Euro 2012 coz they were the first who got the highest points in their group. So even they would loose the game against Sweden, they would still play in the finals.   

Initially, there were six teams per group who would match to each other and the team at the top of each group would qualify automatically. The second placed team with the highest points total would also qualify automatically. Thus Sweden was also included in the finals coz they won the game yesterday against to our pride team, Netherlands with the score of 3-2. All the football teams who joined this cup were eager to get more points and to be included for the finals. The finals would feature sixteen national teams including the hosts, Poland and Ukraine. So there were already 12 national teams who would  play  in the finals of EK and the rest of the teams would contest to be one of the four teams left.

Now, I couldn't wait to watch Netherlands playing in the finals for  Euro 2012 while sitting on the couch together with my sweet, Dennis and witness their victorious moment.
