Czech-mate

on a rainy day I tuned in the European Championships, only to see it was raining in Wroclaw, Poland as well..while sipping a Czechvar pilsener, saw the Czechs beat the Poles to eliminate them from the competition...Polish goalkeeper Tyton expressed the disappointment of a nation

Excellent composition Czech pilsener (how appropriate!) and capture of the Pole's emotion, David. V.

Great catch of the emotion! I am sure the pilsener made the game all the more enjoyable. V

Very clever! What would have happened if Poland had won?
Just getting ready for next round on TV now.

Fortunately it's only a game .......

Wonderful scene with the beer and the chess, indeed a desaster for the Polish! How disappointing to loose against the neighbor, considering how high the expectioons where, but the weather was really miserable for a good game too!

Well composed and thought out image with the Pilsener and Chess Set. It's certainly been an exciting European Championship thus far. I had to postpone a trip to L.A. in order to watch Germany play today.

Great shot with the juxtaposing a beer/pilsener and chess set.
