They were pretty unlucky not to score against Denmark, and they started off well against Germany. The back 4 just gave up too many quality chances.

I just look at Ronaldo's second goal. The Dutch were attacking and lost the ball.
6 Portuguese players took the ball and countered against the Dutch and not one single midfielder tracked back to help the back 4. Not one of them. The only guy tracking back to help? Klas-Jan Huntelaar and he wound up picking the ball up out of his own net.
Holland's problem was that there was no team play. RvP, Sneijder and Robben always tried doing it on their own.
Germany doesnt even look like they're trying yet, but had better give their heads a shake if they think the Greeks are going to be easy.
