ukraine never got off the bus. that was easily the worst performance of the WC so far. wow.

the red card PK was also the single worst call of the WC so far. that ref should be fined for that. not that it mattered.. spain was always going to win this one, since the ukraine seemingly fielded a bunch of goat herders instead of a football team.


yikes.

However that my be, the fourth spanish goal was excellent !

[Big_John]

speaking of excellent goals.. did you see the flying, twisting volley by jaziri?

tunisia is my sleeper pick.

edit: but the saudi's are looking pretty good.

edit2: so much for a sleeper pick.. saudis played a better game, though 2-2 is a fair result i think. very good game.. not as good as sweden/t&t but very entertaining i thought. great result for ukraine, interesting to see who gets second out of this group.

Wow! Injury time goal from Neuville in the Germany/Poland game! The Poles must be kicking themselves.

They should have won by a couple more though, missed a couple of great chances.

My hatred of the German national football team is now firmly cemented.

Damn, the very last minute....

But honestly the Germans were unlucky to score so late. At least they were almost, almost, almost good enough to wear the bloody Husaria wings on their T-shirts, almost...

As usual not enough and far too late, still it is much better than 4 years ago.

AHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa


THEY WON, THEY WON MY GERMANS WON!!!!!!

NEUVILLE WITH THE GOAL!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I CANT BELIEVE IT! I WAS SO MAD BEFORE!!!

I ran outside screaming with my flag. Some maid was outside about to get into the car. I stopped her, asked her for a hug, and hugged her.

I was watching the game with all my friends who wanted Poland to win (because they knew I was big time German fan).

ON TO THE CUP!!!

BALLACK IS BACK!!!

I'll admit Poland did well, but that goal was long overdue. Germany hit two cross bars in one try. Insane.

That's why I play the best sport in the world.

At least there was a win then.

What for? For winning when they were clearly the better team?
