Euro 2008: Day 2
Euro 2008, Football June 8th, 2008Germany 2-0 Poland
Stormy, settling later.
Plucky Poles eventually falling to inevitable charmless efficiency, not helped by own lack of strike power.
Austria 0-1 Croatia
Unseasonably mild.
Not the walkover I expected. Austria showed spirit and invention far beyond their terrible world ranking; Croatia looked dangerously complacent.
