Germany have without doubt played better for most of the half.

Doesn't mean that it shouldnt be 2-2 though.

Oh well, got to love the drama.

Yeah I think we get the message thursday! lol

 

As things stand, this will be England's worst-ever World Cup finals defeat. They lost 4-2 to Uruguay in 1954 - although that was technically worse, as Uruguay were down to eight fit men by the end of the game. "The sad truth is now that the blame will be laid at linesman and Sepp Blatter, sighs Chris Langmead. "As wrong as the decision was, it can't disguise the lack of basic skills. So much for our 'big match experience'.

"England will complain long and hard about the bitter injustice of Frank Lampard's disallowed goal, with justification, but no amount of controversy should disguise how embarrassing they have been in parts of this game. True, England are chasing the game but the manner in which Germany have been too quick, too mobile and too intelligent is a chastening lesson for Fabio Capello to take away from this World Cup."

Neither should any other team talking up their chances.

 

Footballers are hardly known for their intelligence are they.

 

Anyway, just enjoy the moment! I'm finding it quite amusing.
