Croatia hasn't been sucking, we've been dominating with our bench team for a match that doesn't even matter for us. Boruc is just saving everything, he's a great keeper.

By the way, goal Klasnic. ;)

Croatian second team is way superior to Polish first team. Anyway I think Boruc is a world class goalkeeper. He was awesome with Austria and now he's saving us too. I think I play much better football than most of those Polish players there. Sometimes I'm just wondering how is it possible to miss with a shot so drastically considering the goal is so big. Most high school amateur footballers play better than Krzynowek or Wawrzyniak.

Ok, Seb, go be ashamed if you're happy with this victory.

LMAO

Germany - Austria just became the worst match of the tournament. I haven't seen so many mistakes in one game for like...years. Honestly.

I don't know where to start. Let's start up front:

Gomez: LOL. He gets a 4.
Klose: LOL. He gets a 5.5. No fuck that, he gets a 5. Oh no, wait, he ruined an incredible opportunity as well. I forgot that. He gets a 4.5
Poldi was the best (least worst, i should say). He gets a 6.

Neuville sub: HAHAHAHA!! -4

Midfield:

Ballack: Good goal, totally absent for the rest of the game. 6.5
Frings: He probably did most of the work. Good mentality, but that was about it. 6-
Fritz: Haven't even seen this guy. Oh, wait, yes I did. He fucking wasted the ball lots of times, lol. 5.5

Old boy Hitzlsperger did alright when he was subbed in. Can't expect this man to do it by himself.

Defense:

I'm not even going into the specifics here. It's purely down to the Austrians pure fucking ineptitude to put that goal in the box and in the net that the Germans kept the 0.

Metzelder is a goofball. Mertesacker is often praised for his lack of fouls but to me that shows the man is a fucking pussy. Lahm is often too focused on running forwards that he forgets to defend (though I must admit, Lahm was decent today. One of the better Germans). I can't even remember Friedrich doing anything decent this match.

And I cannot fucking believe Lehmann is so criticized in Germany. This guy has been your best player BY LIGHTYEARS so far this tournament. Seriously, stfu about Jens.


Hell, even the proper German go-get-em mentality was totally absent today. There was no pressure on the ball, no focus, no edge in their play at all.

Not to mention the gazillion wasted opportunities and the gazillion "give-away" semi-chances they handed the Austrians on a platter.

The Germans should take their pants off and thank the Good Lord on their bare knees they were put in such a pathetic group with Poland and Austria. Two teams that seem utterly incapable of scoring and capitalizing on stupid defensive mistakes.

Honestly, I want those 90 minutes of my life back.

Germany can play two levels better than this in the quarter finals and Portugal will still deliver a piece of sexual assault that will send them crying back to bockwurst und bier.

Worst

Game

Ever.

No need for the Poles to blame the referee any more. They couldnt beat a weakened Croatian team.

Nice to see Klasnic scoring.

Great strike by Ballack.

I didnt see any of the games because i was at training. Doesnt looked like i missed much.

^^no, i had Germany 4 Austria 0 in my pre-tournament prediction sheet. Austria could have got a draw in the first game. They could have beaten Poland as well.

I still think that Germany will win the tournament.

Bobby, if you saw them (Germany) today, you wouldn't know how quick to retract that statement.

Yes, Germany played poor matches before and came through in the end, but in those occasions at least the mentality was there. This time they didn't even look like Germans on the pitch.

My earlier post said it all, really. They can go two gears higher and the Porties will still rape them. The question is, how many gears ARE the Germans going to shift up?
