If you meet me somewhere and I hold a book in my hand, you’ll probably see a pencil in another.
Yes, I like to underline some sentences or phrases that I find worth underlining. The only problem is that sometimes I just do it too often and my book starts looking like a lined copy-book.
And here is the paradox of my “hobby”: there is no guarantee, that I’ll open this book someday only for reading the things, that I found interesting some time ago. Sometimes I even know, that I’ll hardly do that.
But why do I keep on underlining?
I want to have a hope to be amused by the same thing twice.
Today is a historical day for Russian Football Team. That’s the first time since 1988 when Russia plays in semi-final of Euro Football cup. The enemy is very powerful – it’s Spain.
The results of previous games on Euro 2008:
Spain 4 – 1 Russia (the first game)
Spain 2 – 1 Sweden
Spain 2 – 1 Greece
Spain 0 – 0 Italy (Penalty: 4-2)
Russian team is the winner of 1960, it won the second prize in 1964, 1972, 1988.
The last time Spain was the winner of Europe was in 1964, many years ago, when this country won USSR.
José Luis Aragonés Suárez (born July 28th, 1938, Hortaleza, Madrid), sometimes referred to as simply Luis, is a former Spanish footballer and currently the coach of Spain. Aragonés has spent the majority of his career as a player and coach at Atlético Madrid. He was a prominent player and then coach of the successful Atlético team of the late 1960s and early 1970s. The team won La Liga four times, reached the final of the European Cup and won the Intercontinental Cup. Between 1964 and 1974 he played 265 La Liga games for Atlético and scored 123 goals. Aragonés has coached the club on four separate occasions. He has also played with several other clubs, most notably Real Betis, and played 11 times for Spain, scoring three goals. Apart from Atlético he has also coached seven other La Liga clubs. He has accepted the offer from Turkish giant Fenerbahce which will be effective after Euro 2008. This will be the first time Aragonés coaching outside of his native Spain. (Wikipedia)

Spain is now in the final! Congratulations to all the spanish football fans!
That’s a pity, that Russia didn’t show a game like a previous one (with Netherlands, when Russia won 3-1) and get into final, its dream, but I think, that it’s not a shame to lose to such a strong team like Spain!

But it’s just SO hard to control everything at the same time!..
That’s an awesome short movie, really interesting idea and cool music!
My friend Anna showed me this video and I liked it so much!
If you haven’t seen it (it has already > 1000000 views on YouTube!), you should do it right now! And I think, that you’ll like it too! Tell me, what do you think about it?
By the way, it reminds me the “Butterfly Effect”, one of my favorite movies.
P.S.: the expressions on the DJ’s face are just great
Now the world knows, who’s going to play with the Russian Team in the semi-final.
It’s Spain!
During all the match (Spain-Italy, 1/4 final) nothing was changing: it was always 0-0: this game wasn’t as energetic as it supposed to be. I even think, it was a little boring, don’t you think so?
The last and the most important goal in this match was made during the penalty shoot-out by Francesc “Cesc” Fàbregas Soler, spanish football player. This precious moment made Spain the winner. By the way, that’s the first time in the last 88 years when Italy loosed to Spain!
I won’t make any predictions about the result of a semi-final match (Russia-Spain) on the 26th of June, because it’s just unpredictable! That’s the second time my country, Russia, is going to play with that Team.
The first time wasn’t successful.. AT ALL! Because of these scary numbers: 4-1! That day I was thinking, that we’ll never get even in 1/4! And than.. a match with Greece (1-0).. than with Sweden (2-0).. And that amazing match with the Netherlands (3-1)!
All that I can say, is that the second game will be really interesting to watch.
Because Guus Hiddink and 11 Russian players are ready to make another try. I believe, that they won’t give up in any way!
Russia needed two extra-time goals to win and qualify for the semi-finals of8
Euro 2008. The result is 3-1: Guus Hiddink’s Russia outplayed Netherlands!
Russian Team did a great job.
That was simply fantastic!!
I’m just so happy for them right now! I won’t be writing “HURRAAAAAAAY” or “WOOHOOOO” or “YEEEEAH” all over the post.. overrr and overrr again.. There’s no need to do it, ’cause I’m full of emotions right now!! You should understand it, because I’m a Russian football fan: of course I hoped, that Russia would win today.. But Netherlands is SUCH a power!! I respect this team. I also had a lot of doubts and I knew, that it’s not that simple to win that match! Look: in the last minutes Netherlands scored a goal.. we even needed extra-time to do it!
But we DID IT!
Oh, I just wish you were here to hear ALL THIS noise! It’s almost 2 am, but if you walk outdoors you’ll see your neighbors standing near your house, embracing and talking about THAT awesome match, that has just finished..
That evening united people, even those who don’t know each other! And even if crying and car horns won’t stop until the morning, I’ll keep on smiling..
Because that’s what I call PRiDE.
P.S. Now we’re waiting for you, SPAIN, to meet you again and (I hope!) to make a better result. Or for you, ITALIA. Today I don’t know, who’s going to play with Russia, but tomorrow we’ll SEE!
