MARSEILLE, France -- Tricolors fluttered everywhere in Marseille on Thursday ahead of the second European Championship semifinal, with the black, red and yellow German flag outnumbering the red, white and blue of France in the citys packed Old Port.Elsewhere, market traders used flags as sunshades and passengers waved the French tricolor from car windows as they maneuvered traffic-clogged streets near the Stade Velodrome. Even beggars asking for change had the French flags stripes painted on their faces.As kickoff approached, thousands of fans massed outside the stadium, with French heavily outnumbering Germans and rousing choruses of La Marseillaise ringing out.Inside the ground, French fans also gave two renditions of Icelands rhythmic Viking Huh chant and slow handclapping speeding up to a crescendo of applause, adopting the chant from the team Les Bleus knocked out in the quarterfinals.Earlier, on a beach near the citys Fan Zone, German fans lived up to one national stereotype by laying out their flags alongside towels as they soaked up the Mediterranean sun hours before their team attempted to reach Sundays final. Portugal awaits the winner, with Germany hoping to add the European title to the World Cup it won two years ago in Brazil.The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly early afternoon, with both sets of fans confident their teams would win.We love France, said German fan Florian Fink, before adding that he was convinced his team would prevail. Decked out in lederhosen and a hat from which hung a huge German flag and smaller French and Italian tricolors, Fink and his friends drew a big crowd in the Old Port as they danced and sang with a slightly bemused looking French supporter.Fink was unconcerned about Germanys weakened team facing Frances dangerous front line, led by tournament top scorer Antoine Griezmann. Germany is missing central defender Mats Hummels through suspension, and striker Mario Gomez and midfielder Sami Khedira to injury. Captain Bastian Schweinsteiger was cleared to play after recovering from a knock to his injury-prone right knee.No problem for us, Fink said. We have (Jerome) Boateng, Manuel Neuer, best keeper of the world, and now we will win 2-0.As the tournament approached its penultimate match, a few fans from already eliminated teams mingled with the French and Germans -- among other flags on display were Slovakian and English. There was even a small group of Dutch supporters standing outside a pub under an orange banner that read: We only do World Cups. The Netherlands, a losing semifinalist in the last World Cup, failed to even qualify for Euro 2016.We are going to win. We have the best team in the world. The winner is from France, said French fan Zack Morris who traveled from Paris to watch the match with his brother, who was resplendent in a red, white and blue mohawk wig.The brothers also praised the friendly atmosphere among supporters that was in marked contrast to the three days of fan violence that marred the first Euro 2016 match in Marseille, a 1-1 draw between England and Russia.There were plenty of police in the Old Port close to the busiest strip of bars, but they had nothing to do but sit in the shade of their blue vans.There are no problems, Morris said. Just united. United colors of football. Air Jordan Baratas Online .

SAN FRANCISCO -- Former first-round draft picks will duel on the mound for the second consecutive game Saturday night when the Baltimore Orioles and San Francisco Giants continue their interleague series.Orioles right-hander Kevin Gausman, the No. 4 overall pick of the 2012 draft, and Giants left-hander Madison Bumgarner, who went 10th overall in 2007, will square off where Baltimores Dylan Bundy (fourth overall, 2011) got the better of San Franciscos Matt Cain (25th overall, 2002) in the series opener Friday.Gausman has never faced the Giants in his four-year major league career, and his early ventures into interleague play generally have not been pleasant. Hes 1-4 with a 5.22 ERA in seven starts against National League competition.Only five pitchers who have made at least seven starts have a worse interleague record over that stretch.Gausman got a no-decision in his only previous interleague start this season. He was roughed up for four runs on eight hits over five innings in a 6-4 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on July 6.The 25-year-old has allowed two or fewer runs in four of five games against American League competition since then, although he has a losing record (2-3) to show for it.He will be looking to follow in the footsteps of fellow elite prospect Bundy, who limited the struggling Giants to just three hits and one run in 5 2/3 innings in the series opener.The Giants have alternated wins and losses in their last seven games, totaling just four runs in the four losses.Good start to the series, Orioles manager Buck Showalter assessed. Gutty effort by Dyylan.ddddddddddddHe battled tonight, gave us a chance to win.Bumgarner, meanwhile, will be seeking to extend his streak of consecutive interleague starts without a loss to six. Hes 1-0 in four starts against AL teams this season, having allowed more than two runs in a game just once.The last time Bumgarner lost an interleague game was more than a year ago -- July 31, 2015 at Texas.Hes never faced the Orioles in his eight-year career thats included 20 interleague starts. The only other teams Bumgarner has never pitched against are the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.Bumgarner hasnt won since July 10, a stretch of five games in which hes allowed six home runs.The series matches the major league leader in homers (the Orioles, with 174) against the NL leader in homers allowed since the All-Star break (the Giants, with 37 in 25 games).Orioles slugger Mark Trumbo added to both those totals in the series opener Friday, taking Cain deep for his 33rd home run of the season. First baseman Chris Davis also homered, his 24th.Trumbo had a home run against Bumgarner last season as a member of the Arizona Diamondbacks.Giants catcher Buster Posey noted after the loss that he knows what to expect from Bumgarner. The question is: Will the San Francisco offense do enough to support him?We have the ability to get on a good streak. Thats the way we got to look at it, he noted. We have to look and say tomorrow is the day we get it going. ' ' '
