Yes! Yes! YES!

Denmark-Sweden 2-2! Italy is out! Denmark and Sweden are through to the quarterfinals! It was *the* result that was needed for both teams to go through and we got it! Long live Scandinavia!

(Read about it here. I'm too excited to be coherent about how teh match went and why 2-2 was the result needed. To see pics of cheering Scandinavians, go here. The text is in Norwegian, but you should be able to circle through the pics easily enough, as it has arrows to help out. Denmark's colours are red and white, Sweden's blue and yellow. The depressed blue team are the Italians.)

But good grief, it was a thriller. I'm still shaky. Luckily, now the two teams won't have to face each other again unless both get to the final, so I can happily cheer for both my neighbours. I love you both, Denmark and Sweden. Scandinavian grouphug!

I think the best part was when Sweden had equalized and it was only a minute or so left and both Swedish and Danish supporters were cheering and some were waving signs with "2-2=Nordic victory. Bye bye Italia". It was the result Scandinavia dreamt of and we got it.

I love this game.

Well, if I had to make a choice, mine would also be Denmark. But I rather like Sweden, so rather them a thousand times than bloody Italy. And the whole "Nordic victory" bit was greatly amusing.
