Woooohooooo! I am the happiest person in Germany right now! :D First of all, what a game! It had almost everything! The Italian plan was masterful and worked brilliantly. Germany was confused, fustrated, and had nothing to bring against it except for their up to this point undominable will. That was not enough. For once in this WC, Germany is goal-less in regular time. An incredible feat by the Italian defence! The fustration among the Germans showed, as they began to rack up yellowcards in the 1st half. The normally very dominant offense of the Germans turned into a push-shove-type of physical game. And the Italians didn't blink. A totally different Italian team in this game. They played very fair (for the Italians ;) ) - and only received 1 yellowcard for the whole game (is that a record?). And then came the extended play, and Italy turned up the heat! WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! It could have easily have been 4-0! But luck helped, and the Italians remained scoreless as well until deep into the 2nd extention of play. Then the Germans faltered. Perhaps it was the pressure, the incredible expectations from the crowd (and the entire country on the German team), or perhaps they were already mentally in the Penalty Goal shootout (which is what I think, after hearing several remarks from various German players after the match). Irregardless, a last-ditch effort by the Italians to avoid the Penalty Shootout. With the clock ticking, forwards...and what a Goal! It was a deadly thrust, sinking straight into the hearts of every German watching! 1-0! And then came the mercy shot, putting an end to the death-throes! 2-0! [b]Finally[/b], I can go to work, without having to be constantly subject to the incredible hubris and arrogance of my co-workers! Thank you, Italy! No more "Wir fahren nach Berlin!" calls, no more "The US can't play soccer, we will beat the Italians easily, unlike your team!" no more "why don't you follow your team home?" and other such irritations. No more self-pontifications, no more "we are the best on the planet" attitudes. I expect the situation to slowly relax at work now. What a relief. Onwards! France vs Portugal! My heart is with France and Zidane! But Portugal will not be handing tickets to the final game out to the french, they will have to earn them! Personally, I want to see Italian vs France in the WC final! Two colossal Titans clash! It doesn't get any better than that! Or will it be the WC newcomer, Portugal? Tonight promises to be another thrilling evening! ~[i]On a side note : [/i] At least the US actually scored a goal against the Italians, the only team do have done so! :cool: [url=http://faq.ozoneasylum.com/397/]WebShaman[/url] | [i]The keenest sorrow (and greatest truth) is to recognize ourselves as the sole cause of all our adversities. - Sophocles[/i]
