misscamGo Germany!
WIIIIIIIIIN! Dull game at times, but man, those shoot outs were tense and Lehmann for the win!
I feel a strange amount of love for the German team this time around. I never did before - must be the new football they're playing coupled with how cute Germans are refinding national pride.
Now, Italy or Ukraine in the next match are due for a crushing, yes? Geeeeeeermany! Do it for your Scandinavian cousins too.
ETA: Argentinian players, why are you hitting people on the pitch? That is so not on, and also FIFA will have something to say about that, oh yes.

Date: 2006-06-30 05:59 pm (UTC)And what was going on at the end? Gabi Heinze looked furious as hell, and he's always been a lovely lad at United. He's not the type to fly in fists first without provocation. Most bizarre.

Nasty end to a very exciting match of two good teams.

Date: 2006-06-30 06:09 pm (UTC)The only disadvantage about Munich going bonkers is the fact that I won't be able to work, read or sleep with an open window tonight. The honking cars cruising the streets will soon make an appearance... :)

My new prediction for taking the cup has to be Germany.

And there was a car-corso through the streets of our sleepy town - with people standing on the sidewalk and cheering: "We're going... we're going... we're going to Berlin!" Three schoolmates of my daughter sang fan-songs into the window of our car - all of them turkish girls - and everywhere you could find kids waving flags. Oh wow - it is like being drunk without having to be afraid of a terrible hangover.
P.S. Unfortunately I didn't bring my digital camera, but if we should make it through the semi-finals, I'll take some photos from the next corso. *huge, silly grin*

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Man, I about DIED! Penalties always do me in no matter who's playing but this was pure torture.
And you know, I love the new national pride (she says with a German flag on her cheek). A year ago it would have been unthinkable to see this many German flags all around.
Klinsmann... he really shaped the team and the new more offensive and attrative game.
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
