    Very True. Italy only won cuz the Germans did not play soccer 1st half.....hope Italy beats Spain!

    Nfl /nba and mlb and nhl don't compare to soccer tourneys like the wc and euros/copa . At the end of the day I said germany has never beaten italy and its still the same case. Oddsmakers have been way off on italy this tourney. Soccer historical trends are big. Why did italy play as the better team because they have mental edge over germans in soccer. Just like how germans have no fear of the english.

    Meh, I am more of a facts and numbers guy. psychology should not be considered in a post-season/playoff/tournament game where you know both teams will give it their best. Psychology is only important in letdown/lookahead regular season spots where a loss doesn't hurt too much.

    Pick up a f*ckin' anthropology book and read a little before you call me dunce. The four primary races in the world: caucasoid (caucasian), negroid, mongoloid, and australoid. Each of these has many sub (ethnic) groups resulting from interaction with different races. Go back far enough, everybody's from somewhere else. Let me break it down for you.

    Mesut Ozil: Race (caucasian), Ethnicity (Turkish), Nationality (German, 2nd generation at that). Okay?

    Lakerboy is 100% right , theres a say in Uruguay and Argentina that says "le gano con la camiseta" which translates to they beat them with the Jersey, history repeats itself, for example Brasil now has a shitty team compared to other years , but they are still brasil why because of their history and that plays a huge physocological role , you see them different because they are wearing a yellow Jersey and not a red one for example

    Congrats Italy!

    Don't understand the childish banter on some of these threads man...swear to god.
    I assumed this was a forum of adults, yet when I read some of this insulting mud slinging it makes me want to quit the site.
    Seems universal as well...you wonder why the world it in such a mess.

    No, Italy won, because Jogi Löw made every mistake he could possibly make. Simple as that. And I'm saying this as a german. Too many really bad decisions. Guy needs to go. Italy won, because they had the better coach.
    Italy will give Spain a real hard time in the final.

    And that mistake was changing the line ups. Kroos? lol....guy didn't play all tournament.....gomez instead of klose.....made mistake again....they should of kept Reus and Schrulle in the lineup. Stupid coach. Italy will beat Spain, unless the Italy of old shows and Spain will beat them.

    Löw this idiot has guys like Reus, Schürrle, Götze (HUGE PLAYER), Gündogan, Bender etc. on the bench. Yet he decided to start Podolski, Kroos and Schweinsteiger. Guy is a total idiot for doing so. Starting players because of sympathy and connections ruined the tourney for us.

    Schweinsteiger was hurt and playing bad football....and the coach still puts him in....what a goof. But Kroos for all ppl, thats funny. I know what about Gotze guy never had the chance. Podoski is still young though, he not washed up. Muller, i was not impressed with him at all, WC 2010 he was very good.

    Müller was tired, everyone here knew it. Schweinsteiger totally not healthy at all, and besides, one of the most overestimated players who's running around. Kroos did shit today, Löw had to know that he is not made for that position, too. Reus and Schürrle made a huge game against Greece, now they were out. Podolski is totally crap. Believe me, as I am from Germany. I'm already ashamed, that the fans of Arsenal London have to watch him next season. Götze has to wonder why he even came to the Euro. Would have been nicer to enjoy some holidays. Löw fcked up BIG time today, and there is absolutely no excuse to it. Better coach won, thats all I can say.

    Germany lost. They got DOMINATED. They had more rest than Italy.

    There are no excuses. There is only the DOMINATION we saw on the pitch.

    Roxxy I was waiting this moment for ages.
    Keep you head low since now when talking about Italy and italians.
    We, little hairy midgets, are still one of the best team in the world when it's football (not soccer pal, THIS is football) time.

    As always, as I told to english and croatians, heil to the german people but today, once again, the better team won.

    Goodnight Roxxy, a little kiss, taste of pizza, just for you.

    Lot of hate on this thread.

    So what... he tipped Germany and was wrong, it's not the end of the world.
    So what... he called you hairy little Italians a bunch of short peckered whatevers, pretty funny actually.

    As a man city fan I love Balotelli too, however you bunch of know it all oxygen thiefs that probably contribute nothing to this forum other than negative comments can get fukced; and as for the real nazi around here, take a look in the mirror Laker Boy you high rolling air bettor.

    At least Roxxy contributes with countless threads on WNBA, Football and Rugby League that most of you know very little if anything about.

    Still can´t believe it.


    But today italy did the job and Germany did a lot of mistakes. Low started names. I still can figure out what is Podolski doing there, Schwensteger wasn't ready to play after his injury, Boanteng is a ******* disgrace.


    Low could have started Bender in the place of Boateng as he did before, or change Lahm to the right as he should be, and Schmelzer on the lefy. Kross in the place of Schweini, Reus was great and he should have played more, Schurle for the useless Podolski.




    In any case hope Italy can beat the damn boring football of Spain.

    A century of failure for Germany playing Italy. So much fun. Italy should have won 5-0. Also great is Balotelli. What great medicine for racist Italians and Italian- Americans. Glad you are raking up this tourney LB.

    Any other Germany fans also Buffon fans? I've been saying for years that this guy is the best goal keeper in the world. I'm also starting to like his personality. He seems low-key even when things heat up and he's respectful toward players on other teams.
