We would have 3 goals and so would Portugal. Netherlands would have 1, so I can't see why they would advance. So I guess it would be between us and Portugal and then Portugal would advance because they won the individual match between us.

from the uefa site

"If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings:
a) Higher number of points obtained in the matches played between the teams in question;
b) Superior goal difference resulting from the matches played between the teams in question;
c) Higher number of goals scored in the matches played between the teams in question;
d) If, after having applied criteria a) to c), two teams still have an equal ranking, criteria a) to c) are reapplied exclusively to the matches between the two teams in question to determine the final rankings of the two teams. If this procedure does not lead to a decision, criteria e) to i) apply in the order given;

So in the scenario laid out, Netherlands would be eliminated, and then Portugal would advance

Also theres this apparently

If two teams which have the same number of points, the same number of goals scored and conceded play their last group match against each other and are still equal at the end of that match, the ranking of the two teams in question is determined by a penalty shootout, provided no other teams within the group have the same number of points on completion of all group matches.

Not exactly sure about that, and its on wikipedia, so take it as you will

This would have happened in Euro 2008 when Turkey played Czech. I think had Nihat not scored the winner to make it 3-2, it would have gone to pens.

Scoring two goals in the last 3 minutes.

Turkey was amazing to watch that Euro

Man, I do not get why Netherlands still plays with flanks. Their wingers are worthless, especially if Robben is right. Just go

I'm currently watching this from the haufbrauhaus With 300 Germans and 500 beers and I've heard Deutschland uber alles 1 million times.

I love my people.

P.S Mario Gomez could score 100 goals and never reach Bastion Schweinsteiger Status. They really love that guy.

Taking beer away from Germans would literally start world war III.

It'd be like taking away choking from the English!
