givanno Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Germany did NOT deserve that win. Argentina was by far the better team., they must have had 80% possession. I still think they are the best team in this tournament. Argentina decapitated themselves when they took Riquelme off. Germany somehow scratched through out of nowhere like they always did. And: It was an extremely boring game, except for the goals hardly any chances. I'm afraid some of the next games involving Italy, Germany and Ukraine will be similar, with two teams being happy to just neutralize each other. Can't understand why Argentina did not go for the killer after their first goal when the Germans were almost dead already. They feared the German myth and their fear played into the German's hands.

konangrit Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Well done Deutschland, just knocked the best team (IMO) out of the tournament. Not often I support the Jerries, but what a fantastic potential final. Brazil might have something to say about that, though, and Italy too. Sorry to the Ukrainians, Portuguese, and French, but I can't see any of them causing an upset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainman Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 i bloody well hope so.

kayo Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Street named after Klinsmann 29/06/2006 15:11 - (SA) Geislingen an der Steige, Germany - Germany coach Juergen Klinsmann received a special honour on Thursday when a street was named after him in the southern German region where he grew up. Mayor Wolfgang Amann put up the sign himself for Juergen Klinsmann Way in the community of Geislingen an der Steige in Swabia. The road runs past a sports ground where the coach played football as a boy. - Sapa-dpa I can´t find the pic.. .yet! news is hot off the press Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to the Ukrainians, Portuguese, and French, but I can't see any of them causing an upset. thanks for being a fair sportsman by saying this...... the people in Germany know very well, that other countries have a lot of better players, but to have a lot of very skilled players does not necessarily mean to have the best TEAM..... the German team is young and hard working and Jürgen Klinsmann a smart and intelligent person who goes his very own way and doesn't care what the such-called "experts" say..... it's an absolute sensation what they achieved so far..... and well, this time today the bashers cant blame the referee or the bad FIFA or whatever was said in this topic here before.... they just worked hard and deserved their reward.... the tragedy is that two teams who performed so well in their group-stage games had to clash so early in the knock-out round....

lampard10 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Germany did NOT deserve that win. Argentina was by far the better team., they must have had 80% possession. No mate, you should have watched the Germany - Argentina game. Midfield cancelled themselves out. Slack passing. Neither team adventurous. Both teams had one shot at goal each on target. Hence 1-1. Possesion roughly equal. If they're that frigging good, why did the Argies fall over when anyone looked too long at them?. I've gone right off Ballack as well after that show in the penalty area. One thing the Argies did win clearly. Argentina 6 Germany 1( dives in the penalty area) Win or lose tonight, there is one thing sure. England will try and play that little old game called football.

jackr Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 The Argies were all over them like a cheap suit for most of it, but as rainman says, after their goal, the Argies sat back and were cruisin. Germany deserved to win, what with all the pathetic theatricals - surely it's better to have a crack at goal than do the diving thing? That also goes for Ballack - I was really impressed with him until he started down that road. While the football was fairly quick, there was no brilliance there, as with certain other teams, from either side, but I reckon Germany deserved it and they took their penalties the way they're meant to be taken... number 1 Argie goalie may have made a difference here. What I am disgusted with is the German fans with their constant jeering whenever the Argies got hold of the ball, which went from kick off right the way through to the penalties. Totally unsporting and <deleted> bad mannered. I was wishing for a couple more from the Argies to shut the a$$holes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish you, the über-a$$hole would shut up. I watch the EPL every week-end and it is absolutely no different - nor is it for any other teams playing on home ground. Why the attitude? Jerk-off comes to mind here for your new board name. I thought Gerd was being a tad sensitive about the anti-German comments, it is by and large humour, but some of the cr@p here recently is pathetic. It was certainly generally boring, I thought I was watching England play . . . . . . and Ballack has been really disappointing so far - and what was with the face-grabbing in the box? Sure there was contact, but my 3-month old bangs her head aginast my shoulder harder and doesn't cry about it. Just goes to show, though, that "it ain't over till it's over". Talk about sore losers - the melee at the end was pathetic, but pretty much typical of Argentina's reputation as sore losers - kind of like jackr, or j@rk-off. This is something that looks like you'd be in, either a king-hit blindside w@anker or girlie-kicking. Edited July 1, 2006 by Sing_Sling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calibanjr. Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Lifting Riquelme was the key mistake. OK, take Crespo off and concentrate on defense, but taking off Riquelme allowed the Germans to press forward with abandon until they scored. Clinical finish by Klose, though.
