    That's the guy with the rocket foot, right? I vaguely remember him from the past. Less power, more accuracy at times.

    Vidic was lucky he didn't get a red card, by the way...had the ref judged that Mueller would have scored without the hand ball, it would have had to be a red card.

    If you had told me before the world cup that Germany would be one of the more exciting teams to watch i would have laughed.

    I love the way they are playing. Beautiful cuts and passes it would be a shame if they lost.

    Podolski is getting look after look. It's hard to believe they're playing down a man. He's just not dialed in or something. Or is accuracy a problem of his?

    On the national team, normally not.

    Well, needless to say, I would now be content if we somehow managed to equalize.

    The referee is out of his freaking mind with the yellow cards. That foul by Schweinsteiger was NEVER a yellow.

    If germany loses - what will that mean for their ability to advance? I'm not terribly up-to-date on the situation...

    We need to beat Ghana then.

    I think we will lose this one.

    Podolski... again... misses the target.

    He could have a hat trick right now just based on his chances. Several of them were of the golden variety, not to mention the penalty shot.

    Unless Serbia beats Australia with more than 4 goals difference or Ghana wins with a lot of goals against Australia, we would still be group winner if we beat Ghana.
