Germany vs England

As usual the media over here are going mental with the build up for this game. Strangly,England are slight favourite's to win the game and everyone is on a wave of optimism. Yes,even it comes down to penalties the 3 Lions will still roar on to glory!

Its all bollocks of course. Its the Germans isn't it. I am mentally prepared for disappointment. I am expecting us to go out. Anything else is a massive bonus.


My prediction


Germany 1 England 1 extra time and you-know-who to win on penalties


PROVE ME WRONG ENGLAND!



Edit: Oh well,same old England. Well done Germany,you deserved the victory :(

This German team have been beaten in this competition already we have not. This German team are inexperienced and England will be ready for that. England WILL win this game by a narrow margin my prediction.

Germany 1 England 2 after 90 mins.

No penalties required.

Hello

Back home from Scotland.
It happens that Camra did have Scottish Real Ale Festival on the same street as our hotel, only 140 different Real Ales....... :-D

I'll watch today. I think someone wins with 3-1.... I should prefer the neighbour from where I have just been........ :-D

Best wishes from Sweden

I can't believe man! :( Shame!
Same uruguayan judges who's not awarded us a penalty against Australia, 2 minutes before the end of game ... FIFA = MAFIA!

You saw how the Argentina lead against Mexico? Tevez, 1 meter offside... :)
Fuck that football man!!

Really bad the referees in this World Cup . And yes i agree with somebody here who said Fifa=Mafia.
Don´t forget the way France did qualify. Today i heard by a german guy that happened the same thing as in 1966 World Cup, but this time it was against the English. The ball was inside the net and the line´s man didn´t see it.
On half time the score should be 2-2 .
Was this some kind of Divine Justice??? ahah

Bye

Hey Longy

I am sure you are having a few pints in an effort to forget today's match.Certainly 2-2 at the half could have produced a different result.But Germany is a better squad.England has some 'lack of speed' issues.

FIFA should bring in 'instant replay' on controversial goals.It works well in the much faster game of ice hockey.It is the 21st century!

And then more controversy in the Argentina vs Mexico game.An offside goal,a mindless defensive blunder and a great shot and Argentina move on.Mexico had their chances.

And yesterday a pregame pundit noted the USA's lack of a true striker and the limited mobility of the their central defenders.

Enjoyed both games today.

Cheers

AT least here in the States we will no longer be forcefed soccer (for another 4 years!). It's fun to watch- and, as my mom-in-law is staying with us and is Brazilian; we are having a great time watching her go crazy cursing out Ghana beating the USA and Germany beating England and Argentina beating Mexico (heaven forbid Brazil loses!).
Plus- we get to watch the braodcasts in Spanish, since she can't understand the Irish play b play announcers!

Cheeroky said...

Don't worry Longy.. Argentina will win them convincingly in the quarter-finals! Its not a team of German, but European Union & Turkey team, man! :)

Longy said...

Video Technology will come in eventually Marion but not while Blatter is about. It doesn't mask how awful England were yesterday. We would of still lost.

A Brazilian Mother In Law during a World Cup sounds hectic Nazz. I hope they win tonight or your life will be hell lol.

Longy said...

We don't like Argentinians either Cheeroky!

Hugo Tosoni said...

Hey Longy I am an admirer of your page specially and british culture in general, I know our trainer is so hypocrite that he claims for Fair Play when he did what he did back in 86, and our succesive governments from almost last 20 years were the worlds most corrupt, but apart from that, why dont you like us?
Greetings from Bariloche, Argentina.

I think Longy is just a wee bit frustrated.

Cheers

Doug

Longy said...

Hugo - its a football thing. I'm bitter about 86,hand of god and all that marlarki. And Doug is right,I'm a bit frustrated with how things have turned out for us AGAIN!

Longy said...

I hope your wrong WDM. I've already lost me £20 on Brazil to win it. I've only got my £10 on Argentina left!

Longy said...

I'll need it!

Doug said...

Longy

After today's performance Argentina should reimburse you 10 pounds.What a totally disorganised squad!It was team against individuals.

Getting ready for Spain vs Paraguay.

Cheers

Doug

Longy said...

Yep I doubt disagree with you there Doug. That's both my bets cocked up now!
