    Man I predicted 2-1 Germany. What a pleasant surprise!

    Germany plays under such a great system and with great composure. I'm so glad Madona is out. I hope the "hand of cheat" gets sacked. Argentina deserve so much better than his ass.

    However I still don't understand why the German metrosexual manager is so persistent in wearing those tight blue shirts. Does he not own a jacket? s*** I'll buy him one from mens warehouse if money is an issue.

    Germany-Holland final would be epic. Go Dutch!

    As far as the game today, wow. If the Germans played this well offensively in the 1940s, they might've won WWII.

    Like I said, this German offense is very lethal.

    Two beautiful passes by Muller and Oliz and yboth resulted in goals.

    I am upset that Muller will miss the semis on a turd of a call by the ref. What a bogus call.

    As for Messi, he was dissapointing in last two games. In order to be named among the Zidanes, Maradonas, and Peles, he had to produce a World Cup trophy for Argentina. His performance in last two games certainly hurt his rankings.

    What Madona did wrong as a manager was his failure to teach the art of handofcheat to his players. Imagine how deadly they would be if Henry was Argentinian.

    Btw, I hope Battier takes Scola out for a few drinks and karaoke. Lord knows the man needs it.

    FEEL BETTER SCOLA!

    They're frustrating Messi
    They're piling on the goalie
    Goals by Klose from Podolski
    The Blitzkrieg Bop

    Oh i'm sure he did. It's part and parcel of South American football. If you can't win with talent, try to cheat.

    Germany never gave them the chance.

    He (like his assistant coach and it is also rumored about Klinsmann, Bierhoff, Frings and a couple of others) is gay or bi-sexual (he is married, but his wife is not exactly a hottie, to say the least...), it's sort of a known fact, but nobody talks about it. But he is a fantastic coach.

    NEEDLESS TO SAY, I AM ECSTATIC!!!!

    JUST BOOKED MY FLIGHT TO DURBAN!!!!!!!!!

    The yellow card for Mueller was a joke, Argentinians played the ball with their hands INTENTIONALLY TWICE, and he did it INADVERTENTLY; yet, he is the only one to get booked, wtf.

    Germany might be the team to beat at this point. A Germany vs. Spain showdown could be the best game of this World Cup.

    No way this happens.

    The Netherlands will move on to the finals. It's a tough call but I feel like Spain will end up beating Germany and win it all.

    I'm hoping for a Germany-Netherlands final. This is the WC for the Dutch.

    I thought he played great. The rest of his team not so much.

    Spain's midfield and ball possession has me leaning towards them against Germany.

    Spain against Germany in the Finals? Not possible. They're both in the same bracket.

    I was referring to the next game. Ya I'm confident that Spain is going to win today.

    Everyone has underestimated Germany thus far and looks like they will continue to do so. If Spain make it through it will probably be 2-0 to Germany again. They are a young, fast and exciting team to watch. I'm hopping on the bandwagon. I've always liked Germany but my team has always been Australia and neutral for others but there is something special about this team. So many options up forward.
