Watch Live Portugal v Netherlands Euro Cup 2012
Posted by Unknown
Preview World Cup finalists, top scorers in qualifying and one of the favourites to win Euro 2012, the Dutch now stand on the brink of a humiliating early exit from the European Championship. After two defeats on the bounce, the Oranje must beat Portugal by two clear goals and hope Germany defeat Denmark in order to escape from Group B. It's a tall order. No team has ever reached the knockout phase at the Euros after losing their first two matches. Throw in the fact that it took Netherlands 46 shots to notch a solitary goal, never mind two, and Bert van Marwijk's side look destined to board an early flight back to Amsterdam. There's dissent in the...

Talk about everything going according to the script. Ukraine, the co-hosts, could hardly have had a better night than they did against Sweden in Kiev. Before a noisy and expectant crowd, the key questions were answered: could they handle the occasion? Could they score goals? Could Andriy Shevchenko, the 35-year-old talisman and national sporting hero, make the impact supporters craved? With the exception of a very jittery finale during which Johan Elmander missed a glorious chance to spoil things with an equaliser, Ukraine were energetic and enterprising. They reacted brilliantly after falling behind to Zlatan Ibrahimovic's strike, maintaining their belief and upping the tempo, and the two superbly-taken Shevchenko goals that followed showed that the old stager still...

NL MVP Ryan Braun said all along that his 50-game suspension for a positive drug test would be overturned. He was right. Arbitrator Shyam Das threw out Braun's ban on Thursday, making the Milwaukee Brewers outfielder the first Major League Baseball player to successfully challenge a drug-related penalty in a grievance. "It is the first step in restoring my good name and reputation," Braun said. "We were able to get through this because I am innocent and the truth is on our side." Braun tested positive in October for elevated testosterone, which was revealed by ESPN in December. He reports Friday to spring training with the threat of suspension lifted. "Since joining our organization in 2005, Ryan Braun...
