I second the sentiments of the English...
I was in Berlin for opening weekend, and celebrating with Germany after their first win was probably the most fun I will ever have in my life. Truly an amazing time. I was with 7 other Americans, and after the weekend we all became football fans (none were before) and we all adopted Germany as our team for the World Cup (even went so far as to wear jerseys out to the bars for each game after, no matter where we happened to be at the time). I was in a bar in Norway during the semis with a bunch of pro-Germany Norwegians, and it was like a punch in the stomach for all of us, and we're not even German! It was a tremendous run though (after all, you went much further than the US)!
Anyway, I'm also posting because I've been looking for a song we heard over and over in the clubs in Berlin. I could also hear it being chanted over the television broadcasts of the Germany game, so it seems to be well known. I think there was a verse in German, though the words escape me as I was quite drunk and it was some time ago (and my German is only so good).
But the chorus is just a repeat of yai yai yai yai yay, yai yay, yai yayyyy. Hard to type out like it sounds, but maybe that is familiar? Would very much appreciate an ID. Thanks!
Prost!
