    John Arne Riise: "ha, ha, ha - I CANNOT believe they have Wonderboy"
    Ryan Babel: "Why CANNOT you believe this John?"
    JAR: "I played this all the time in Olso with my father!"
    RB: "My father did not allow me to play such games, only Outrun and that was once a year"
    JAR: "I am sorry for you Ryan, please, have my fifty pence and have go
    yourself, I do not wish to HOG the game"
    RB: "You are a very kind gentleman John"

    Jack Hobbs "YES!"
    Fabio Aurelio: "What have you SEEN Jackie?!"
    JH "Tomb Raider"
    FA: "Hard games, many levels, unexpected for an amusement arcade"

    Come on Germany! I think Germany will win because they seem better in the middle. Argentina are at best average. They were lucky to beat mexico in my opinion. 1 offside goal and another came from a mexican mistake. I don't think they will get goals like that against Germany. Messi is a bit off form.


    Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,
    Über alles in der Welt,
    Wenn es stets zu Schutz und Trutze
    Brüderlich zusammenhält.
    Von der Maas bis an die Memel,
    Von der Etsch bis an den Belt,
    Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,
    Über alles in der Welt!

    Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,
    Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang
    Sollen in der Welt behalten
    Ihren alten schönen Klang,
    Und zu edler Tat begeistern
    Unser ganzes Leben lang.
    Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,
    Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang!

    Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
    Für das deutsche Vaterland!
    Danach lasst uns alle streben
    Brüderlich mit Herz und Hand!
    Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
    Sind des Glückes Unterpfand;
    Blüh' im Glanze dieses Glückes,
    Blühe, deutsches Vaterland.

    I think Spain could get past Paraguay, even if Torres isn't on form.

    It wasn't disgraceful, he did it to save their asses. Ghana had their chance with a penalty, Gyan f*cked up. Jesus at least they got a chance, what did we get in Paris? Henry didn't even get a ban, now they're talking about Suarez getting a 2 match ban.

    Anyway, hope Germany do it today, have always been my heroes since they knocked England out in 1990. And after last Sunday I shall idolise these boys forever. Plus they're playing some classy stuff.

    Cracking goal from Muller. The Goalkeeper looked to be on a different planet altogether.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,984 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1


    JEEEEEEEEEEEZUS CRIPES!!!!!!!!!!! 4 - 0?????????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,300 ✭✭✭Indubitable


    I am not surprised. Argentina's defence is rubbish. A netherlands vs Germany Final should be a good game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,984 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1


    I am not surprised.

    Why, did you predict germany would win 4 nil against the world cup favourites?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,789 ✭✭✭✭peasant


    German lesson for today::D

    Mein lieber Herr Gesangsverein!

    No, I didn't predict it but it wasn't much of a shock. I did think Germany would win but not by 4 goals.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,984 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1


    No, I didn't predict it but it wasn't much of a shock. I did think Germany would win but not by 4 goals.

    Im surprised they lost by that margin to be honest.

    Anytime germany got near the argies peno box they were lethal. Look at how many stray shots on goal argentina had. Their defense was useless but they all played pretty badly IMO.

    What does the little black kid with no shirt shout out at the start of the World Cup TV intro?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,048 ✭✭✭dolliemix


    Maybe poor old Maradona was a little bit too laid back at training! :D
