Yes, I think that was a fair result.

Yup, that was terrible...

Personally I'd cheer for Sweden, but Norway is another story :-) They
play or have played some terrible boring old-style English kick'n'rush
football betting on some huge Norwegian attacker winning the air duels. 

Actually I watched the Denmark - Italy match on Norwegian TV2, because
the Danish commentators are lame. The Norwegian ones were more neutral
and less excited. I watched Sweden - Bulgaria on Swedish TV4 as the
Danish commentators were totally over-excited, making it almost
unbearable to watch :-)

Maybe I'll watch Holland - Germany on German television tonight :-)
