Will Lancelot go crazy with joy if Argentina wins the World Cup? Stay tuned, folks!

Cheers!

Rick...

I`m speechless about the French performance. Absolutely puzzling that a team with such great individual players can play that abysmal. There must be something seriously wrong within the team.

Another surprise today were the Greeks. I wouldn`t have bet they would pull themselves together like they did. Chapeau!

Why? England have been doing it for 40 years

Three words come to my mind: (bad) ego, (bad) coaching, (too much) Individualistic = no teamplay, no goals= sure defeat!

Vivement Laurent Blanc (next coach, loved by French and key player of the 98 and 2000 victories) to put back some humbleness, impose a more better discipline to these overpaid divas and MUCH more focus on the word: TEAMPLAY.

In a way, you probably won't believe it but this loss is sort of a victory for French people, it will oust the awful coach Domenech out of the team quicker than expected...

I'm still puzzled why Domenech is still coaching the french national team. I mean the antagonism towards him ain't new, it had been there four years ago so why wasn't he sent on his way long ago?

That is the mystery...after the complete failure in the Euro 2008 he would have been thrown out (when you know that adding offense to insult, answering to the question "what do you have to do now ?" he answered " to propose marriage to Estelle -his female companion in life-",in front of millions of astonished and bitter TV spectators...) harsh and ironic with the journalists , weak with some players (unfortunately the brainless ones)because of his lack of competence.

Since years the team France did not show anything better than mediocre, but players and staff were constently saying that they'll show out how good they are when playing serious competitions...like the guy who falls from a skyscraper and at every storey tell people at the window:"so far, everything's allright !"
"Chronicle of a foretold death"...



A lot has to be done in the team management ,human, tactics and technics too...hopefully a new cycle will begin very soon...we need some vivid air and a renewed team with a sane spirit.

This Spanish referee is going to ruin this Germany v Serbia game. No one will be prepared to tackle for fear of getting a yellow or second yellow card!

There's certainly been a few fouls but nothing deserving a card.

So the US plays Slovenia today. Go USA!!

Well there you go!

Germany have a man sent off for a ridiculous second yellow and Serbia score less than a minute later.

This referee shouldn't even be in charge of a burger stand!

Bummer... and I was looking forward to a Holland-Germany final

Funny...



...a t-shirt that changes colour if the temperature rises...

yeah,


OTOH Klose really was stupid, he got his first card for nearly the same foul. Plus it was in the midfield. Stupidstupidstupid!!!!!!!!

But still one half to play and the last seconds were promising. They are still able to score, even with one man less on the field.

Yes Legend, that is why I am always looking forward to a Holland-Germany. It's always a source for lots of humorous stuff.

And I have the benefit to look at it as an outsider, so whatever the score, I'll always have reason to party

OMG! Germany miss a penalty. Will that come back to haunt them?

I�m already crazy, son not much change there.

Germany just wasted a penalty, unbeleivable!! (Hope i wrote it right! )

Alpen horns FTW.

Or accordians.

The referee apparently was on drugs. And in the second half the effect has worn off. Or vice versa?

I hope this... person is never allowed to the pitch again during this WC.


Anyway, congratulations to Serbia. A cleverly played match on their part.

yup,

9 yellows and one yellow-red was waaaayyyy too much in a game that was never unfair at all.

But still, this wasn`t the culprit today. The Serbs played clever and we were a little out of luck, so a deserved win for Serbia.

And there still is a chance to get further in the tournament.

Now USA vs Slovenia

Go USA!

Best luck!

Two Slovenians play for my hometown team (Suler and Ljubijankic), so dear American friends, forgive me if I cheer for Slovenia. The longer Slovenia is in, the more compensation their league teams get, and so I'm hoping for improved catering in the stadium next season

ooooops!
