yea Germany is the best all around team. Such great strategic play, they just wear down the other team. Their defence wall is unbreakable. Brazil would've definitely lost to them had they played each other.
Saddest moment so far has to be Ghana losing yesterday. They deserved the win to at least make it to the quarter finals. |

What the ****, that was a truckload of crap. Spain kept falling to the ground all game long especially Iniesta and even without contact! Then that bastard makes the goal, and is a hero?!
Thats exactly why I dont like Spains, Portugals and their old colonials (south-america) football, its fake. Germans, Brits, and Japan. They all played tough but fair football, and thats the best part of the whole sport. -------------------- |

Well, let's all remember this as the World Cup decided by the refs, yeah? Both teams played very well, Spain just got the lucky strike. The majority of this Cup has been bullsh!t, I have to admit...I'm saddened it had to end this way.
van Bronckhorst deserved a better end to his career. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

Spain do go down too easy, but the way Holland set out to foul them at every opportunity ruined the game.
anyway congratulations to............. NEW ZEALAND!!!!!!!!!!! The only team who didn't lose a match at the World cup -------------------- |

Yarly...nothing remarkable about the Cup really. I'm sad we lost, would've been great to see van Bronckhorst pull some magical **** (like the shot in the half final), but alas it didn't happen.
Most matches weren't stunning, offensively speaking, and most plagued by bad or biased refereeing. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]
