Regarding last night's Germany vs Algeria match.

(facepalms)

So much for German efficiency. What's up with that bizzare free kick last night? It was so embarrassing to watch This is not the German national football team that we know and love. Come on, remember what your ancestors did in the 1940s? Blitzkrieg all the way to the top! Re-conquer France ruthlessly and efficiently!

 

[Replay]

Argentina will win here
Tonight I'll be cheering the Yanks on again. I think they have a good temperament and winning attitude.....they might not be the best team but as the captain said today...this cup so far proved that the team who wants it the most....pulls through

this game has been quite boring

 

[AfricanTech]

Looks like the Swiss are going for penalty shootout at the end

That said, they've impressed - Argentina (Messi) completely shut down.

Swiss defense holding out...

Erm...Auschwitz? Don't bring up their ancestors

[Replay]

Unselfish Messi......CR7 take note please

 

[mith]
