Switzerland v England
Coimbra, Euro 2004

For England's 2nd group match, we travelled to the university town of Coimbra to the North of Lisbon. It was a scorching hot day, ideal for watching football.
Result: England 3 (Rooney 2, Gerrard), Switzerland 0

France v England    Croatia v England    Portugal v England

Outside the Stadium

While waiting for the stadium to open up, we hung up the flags and enjoyed a quiet drink or two in the sun

One of the finer sights in Coimbra that day

A picture paints a thousand words

Swiss Supporters

From our vantage point at the top of the stand, we could see the Swiss supporters crowding to get in

England Everywhere

Still quite a while to kick-off and the England sections (ie - Most of the stadium) are filling up nicely

The Band

Luckily, our seats were only 2 rows in front of the band !!!

Team's Line-up

The teams line up for the national anthemn, Switzerland are on the left and England are on the right

Humorous Swiss

A very funny (sic) banner saying England should "Go Home - Try Cricket". 3-0, wasn't it ???

Roooooooonnneeeeeeeyyyyyy

The half-time scoreboard shows several replays of Wayne Rooney's goal and celebration.
