For a crazy football fan like me, it would be really strange for me not to have a post about Euro 2008 in my blog. Come on now. Most of the time I’m idle I think about only two things- either myself or football (read as Euro 2008 for the current month) So firstly I’l tell you why I have not been watching matches. It all started with the first day of the Euro and all of a sudden my tv was showing pictures I never dreamed I would see in it. Yeah I got no Set Top box at home but there it was! The opening match of Euro 2008 Live before me. I was jumping for joy(Watched those 2 whole matches) only for it to be cut short the next day. Since the Asia Cup had started, my most generous cable operator had switched over to providing those free channel viewers the chance to see it. But damn it DD was already showing those matches. Then I realized what a biased country this is towards Cricket. And to be a football fan here. You could as well be in Mars (exaggeration, I admit)
But then I wasn’t one to give up so easily. I started searching for any live streams that might be on offer on the Net. Infact there were many of them - Sopcast, TV Ants etcetera. But problem is my broadband internet speed is about 256kbps which is not suited for watching live streams. So I gave up on seeing the Euros…………………………….. until today!!! I finally found a stream link that gives me uninterrupted streaming of all matches of Euro. Just watched Spain edge it past Sweden. Unlucky Sweden, but good thing Spain are showing signs of a lack of killer instinct. Man, I want them to face Netherlands in the Semi’s or Finals and get thrashed! Yeah I support the Netherlands. Been supporting them ever since World Cup 2006 where I was just drooling over their play. This time they are showing some real spirit and drive. Hope they win it.
Btw here’s the stream link is below. I honestly do not know if its illegal or anything. But then who cares. I’m not Scobliezer
