Spain vs. Germany on Sunday - Page 2

tirsales · 06-29-2008, 04:37 PM

Oh well - its not that Spain has won ... Germany has lost because they played like they played against Turkey.

--edit: Spain has played well, dont get me wrong. But the German Team has played .. bad.
At least now we can restart looking the news or listening to the radio

without getting soccer-annoyed.

Germany shuoldn't even have passed the quarter finals. :P

Although it makes me sad, i have to say, the Spanish were really good and won well deserved. Congrats.

But do not forget, Germany still has the second best soccer team in europe

There is not a real correlation with being in 2nd place in the Euro and being the 2nd best team in Europe. :P

@over: No, Germany played better then Portugal and won well deserved.

philippd · 06-29-2008, 07:24 PM

yeah, we didnt play good today. Congratulations to spain...

have a good party there

HarryT · 06-30-2008, 02:51 AM

Agreed. I was supporting Germany, but Spain deserved to win without a doubt. Congratulations to them.

leandroide · 06-30-2008, 03:40 AM

Thank you, thank you

Don't say I didn't warn you

Now seriously, I didn't see Germany playing except in the final... and I'm sure that Germany can play better that they did. You know.. they always are one of the favorites, no matter the competition.

But Spain .... I think that we played very, very well. And I think that if the score were 2-0 or 3-1 it wouldn't be strange.

Well... the game was boring because there were no goals, but I the match was quite good.

And concerning the penalties... we have Casillas!! The best goalkeeper in the world!!!

Ok... the football is over... now let's read

And what bets would you take for the forthcoming Spain v Scotland match?

(Switching quickly to a smaller ball!!)

I think Berlin was the biggest... they had to close the Brandenburger Platz because it was full. Something like 600'000 fans there.

It was a great tournament - well done Austria / Switzerland for hosting it; and congratulations Spain for winning it.

I even enjoyed the France - Romania game!

Hope the English team makes it to the next one (not too sure about our 'fans' though

- it seems to go better when they're not there).

Alexander Turcic · 07-02-2008, 08:56 AM

It's a pity the Swiss or Austrians didn't somewhat longer. It's undeniable that at least here in Switzerland there was some kind of anti-climax after they lost their captain, Alexander Frei, to injury in their first game and after losing their first two matches.

The Euro 2008 was the first European Championship not to have one of the host nations present in the knockout stage...

Uppss... I don't know!!! What sport are we talking about?

It doesn't matter!!. If we won the European Championship again after 44 years, we can win everything!! Even cricket, baseball or bobsleigh!!

By the way, Adidas made a nice ad with images of the spanish team. It's here:

I liked specially the references to "volar" (flying), "atravesar muros" (breaching walls) or "leer la mente" (mind-reading)
