You wanna take on Patrick Vieira in a tunnel, you need the Man United hard man by your side. Yes, kids, good times, great memories.
From The Telegraph:

Patrick Vieira did not play a part in France's elimination from Euro 2008 but the former Arsenal captain was alleged to be involved in a tunnel row with one of his oldest adversaries, the Netherlands striker Ruud van Nistelrooy.

The Dutch were not in a generous - or conspiratorial - mood today. A Romanian victory would have ensured their survival in the tournament, and the elimination of Italy and France, but Oranje coach Marco van Basten is enjoying the taste of victory too much at Euro 2008. He rested some players, but showed the depth of his squad - and took advantage of a lacklustre Romanian performance - to post a 2-0 victory in Berne.

The Dutch players celebrate with their children last night in Berne. Honestly, have you ever seen so much pink-cheeked, flaxen-haired adorableness in your life? (And I'm definitely not talking about Dirk Kuyt.) Let's give the Oranje the trophy right now simply on the basis of baller loin production of the most superior quality.

...And as if by magic, the Dutch and the Italians arrived. Barely half an hour after I finished writing about a match that was described (accurately) by Alan Hansen as "one of the worst games of football I've ever seen", they kicked off in Berne for a match that has finally kicked some life into the body of Euro 2008.

It's a question on the minds of many United supporters as they watch their favourite players perform at Euro 2008. Evra's club manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, rates him highly. "Patrice has been a key part of the club's success in the last two seasons," he said. "He has developed into one of the best full-backs in world football.

I'm undecided at this point if this is a statistic to gloat over. Oranje supporters camping in Interlaken, just outside Berne, are consuming record amounts of beer. Buoyed by their team's success against Italy, (and perhaps eager to get the celebrating in before the proverbial bubble bursts), the rate of beer consumption is now outpacing that of the 2006 World Cup camp in Germany.

Farewell then, France. Last night had been an evening that promised to hit a crescendo of tension, excitement and drama, but in the event the evening in Zurich all went off like a firework display in a monsoon, with a French selection and performance that gave Italy a relatively comfortable ride through to the quarter-finals, whilst in Berne the Dutch comfortably found a way past a Romania side which, three games in, finally showed up the shortcomings that many had suspected would lead to them being one of the tournament's lame ducks before so much as a ball was kicked.
