i dunno hey supa

both free kicks from him, both really awesome free kicks and he scored the goal :) i would say he performed a ronaldo type performance and helped germany win, more so than other player in the german team :) but your right was a group effort in the end but for me he stood out as their top player in that game.

i think someone who scores and sets up 2 goals makes a difference in a team but hey thats just me

Well I believe Holland have a very good chance of taking it. I'm a true German supporter but I believe if the Netherlands keep up their current form, Germany may have a big problem in the final...

Nah. The Germans/Italians will take it. Don't let any of these guys score first.

Without the team performance driving the ball up the pitch/creating chances, he wouldnt have got any chance at goal.
 
How sad the pair of you are.

Portugal were terrible last night. Germany now have an easy road to the final, unless they lose to Croatia AGAIN.

Portugal were not terrible, they came up against a stronger team its as simple as that.

They 11th and Germany are 5th for a reason.Portugal have never won a major tournament and never will with teams like Germany/brazil/italy etc playing in it.

If you watched football for years you would know that Germany always have a slow start to tournaments.
Go look up what those 3 stars on their chest is..they there for a reason.

Dude, compared to how they had played in the previous games Portugal were awful. They offered nothing going forward for most of the game and their defending for two of the goals was really poor. Still, they managed to only lose 3-2 in the end.

I know Germany make a slow start, I said so earlier if you were paying attention. I said that if Portugal played how they had been playing and Germany did the same it would be an easy win for Portugal. Sadly, this was not the case and that is why Germany managed to win the way they did.

It's not rocket science.
 
No you said:
Germany have been very poor. They are lucky their opposition has somehow managed to be worse
France were all round terrible in this tourney. Didn't once look like being a decent side. The same can be said of Germany but somehow they are in the quarters

Those quotes tell me you have no clue regarding germany's performance in any tournament.

Portugal played a good game they were not crap as you said, strong in the counter and good movement off the ball.The score of 3-2 doesnt reflect the game as their last goal was a late one.

Germany were a stronger team and were always going to beat Portugal, like we kept telling you.It wasnt us "guessing" the score, it was inevitable.

I am not sure why you chose those quotes really. Doesn't tell me anything about anything other than what I already told you I said.

Up until yesterday, Germany were poor. Last night they managed to raise their game just enough to beat an out-of-sorts Portugal team.

Now they are in the semi's anything can happen.


End of 'debate'.

I quoted that because it shows your knowledge regarding football and germany's performance in general.

Germany ALWAYS raise their game out of the group stages, if you had watched a world cup or a euro before now you would know that.

"out-of-sorts" portugal?? they lost becuase germany are better that is why portugal lay 11th in the world with no cup wins.

Man, it's not even fun talking to you.

I will tell the ten Germans with whom I watched the game yesterday, who also thought the same as me, that they were all wrong and this one guy on the internet was right and they should all be sad because they know nothing about football. :rolleyes:

lol @ 10 germans, why not make it 100.
Also 10 germans who all believe their side are going to lose, very unlikely.

I did not say they though they were going to lose - they agreed with what I have been saying, and you have been ignoring, namely that Germany had had a poor first three games.

I can make it no clearer than that.

How many times must I tell you, IF YOU WATCHED A TOURNAMENT BEFORE NOW (as its obviously your first time watching a football tournament) THIS IS NORMAL GERMAN PERFORMANCE.

I know. Calm down son. I have said this before as well.

You disputed that their performance had been poor, which was wrong. Don't blame me if your arguments don't hold water.

The first World Cup I watched was in 1994, but hey. :rolleyes:

Yes, in 1990. Thanks man. I really didn't know that. :rolleyes:

I was only 7 at the time and did not watch the game, is why I did not mention it.
