Stranger things have happened.

Yep - Denmark winning the European Championship 1992

Denmark 2 - France 0

Edit

Senegal 3 - Uruguay 2

Yeah, and it would sure be a good thing to happen for the fate of Africa ... [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's all over. Denmark scored a second.

France would now have to score four goals, winning by two to get through. There's little they can do, it's true.

Alas poor Francais. They rocked.

Is this the next of kin allegiance for most French? Senegal is French speaking is it not?

Yes - and their coach is french - and nearly all their players play in the french first division

EDIT: France just can't score a goal - they've hit the woodwork twice in the second half (5 times in three matches)

Uruguay have scored a second.
3:2

How unlucky is France? Trezegez's shot hit the top bar, bounced down, but stayed out.

They can't win a trick it seems....

Uruguay and Senegal are tied!
