I thought he looked pretty damn good at the WC. In fact, I thought he should have got best young player (as I said above).

Yeah Ronaldo doesn't seem like the kind of player that cares about the size of the stage. I believe it was his penalty kick that sealed the win against England at the World Cup two years ago. I hate the dude, but I think he's going to be awesome this summer.

Does anyone know how many games ESPN is going to be showing this summer? I liked the coverage during the WC but I don't know if they look at the Euro Cup the same way as the WC.

Well he blasted a pen wide against barcelona in the first leg of the semi-final. It doesnt get much bigger than that.

ESPN/ESPN2/ABC said they would have all of the Euro games televised among them.

I would say the World Cup is bigger than that.

Well Baggio's penalty miss in the 94 world cup final may be considered bigger!

Out of all the teams they have the best attacking players, defensively, they're not as strong but i've been saying for a while though that Spain will win the thing, barring serious injuries. I think the dark horse of the comp is Russia

Fernando Torres FTW! I'm a Liverpool fan and I can't wait to watch him in the Cup.

Yea it is but thats besides the point, which is that Ronaldo has gone missing/ bottles it in big games so far.
