Well that's a heartbreak....Man what a weak goal to give up. Chiellini wasn't tall enough and Curci just couldn't get his hand to the ball. Why did Ukraine have to go and win

I didn't like Huntelaar today, but I heard he is a class forward, at least in Ajax...
Btw, Italian luck has run out today.

Huntelaar hasn't played well so far this tournament. Maybe he's just a bit disappointed about not being selected for the World Cup.
Denmarks unluck didn't run out yesterday! How could we deserve that? We played brilliantly in every game but the result yesterday was far more wrongful than the Italy match! So now the two best, in my oppinion, teams from group B didn't make it to the semi's but Ukraine and The Neterlands are great teams to so congrats. I know Italy maybe didn't deserve to win but with their playermaterial they should go through but so should we!
Milevskiy has to play the best game of his career today 
and he is NOT for sale, that's what Ajax already said.PSVFOREVER

Every player is for sale when the right offer comes in...
Maybe at your club :boohoo: but KJH isn't.
Dutch players in the UEFA's team of the tournament:
Right-back: Dwight Tiendalli (Netherlands)
Although Gijs Luirink excelled in a central role throughout these finals, it needed Tiendalli's return from a knee injury to unite the Netherlands back line after defensive confusion had led to the conceding of soft goals against Ukraine and Denmark. The 20-year-old FC Utrecht right-back added both defensive grit and attacking verve down that flank, linking superbly with two-goal Nicky Hofs in the success against fancied France.
Left-back: Urby Emanuelson (Netherlands)
Competing with Olexandr Romanchuk for the honour, the 19-year-old AFC Ajax tyro took the vote on the strength of his display in the final when his Ukrainian counterpart was dismissed. Despite suffering from tiredness after his breakthrough season at the Amsterdam ArenA, Emanuelson commanded the entire left side of the pitch from his defensive berth, bringing an extra dimension to Foppe de Haan's attacking play with his pace and crossing.
Centre midfield: Ismaïl Aissati (Netherlands)
Although the youngest at 17, Aissati was perhaps the most exciting player on show in Portugal. The PSV Eindhoven prodigy was unafraid to carry the ball forward, with a trick here and a flick there, while retaining a midfield maturity beyond his years. Even in the dying seconds of an exhausting semi-final epic against France, Aissati found the necessary fuel for a run and shot that very nearly clinched victory. If eclipsed last night by captain Stijn Schaars, he nonetheless gets the nod on account of his shining talent.
Forward: Klaas Jan Huntelaar (Netherlands)
The game of the finals also saw its finest goal: Huntelaar brilliantly chipping the imperious Mandanda to make it 2-0 to the Netherlands in their last-four defeat of France. Despite his long club season and disappointment at being overlooked for FIFA World Cup duty, the lanky AFC Ajax front-man was a tireless worker and willing centre point for the Jong Oranje. The 22-year-old had announced himself with his side's breakthrough goal against Denmark and ended up as the leading scorer after taking his tally to four with two in the final victory against Ukraine.
