Liebe deutschen Fussball-Freunde - Ihr habt herrlich heute geg. Australien gespielt und ich hoffe, dass wir Amis ein WM-Spiel geg. Euch auf jeden Fall vermeiden können!



Enjoy the cup, all,

Thanks, Steve. But let's just see if the Germans can keep up yesterday's performance. The game against Serbia next Friday will show if the team is really in good shape. BTW, your German is excellent.
