match is being given to Croatia in my opinion. |
Why? The runner-up will meet Portugal in the knock-out stage. That will not be an easy victory. There's really a need not to come in second. |

Yeah. Croatia were like Czech Rep, sucked in the first game but were much better in the second. |

Snap! Thoroughly deserved win and great to see our boys play to their potential. The formation worked great and the addition of Rakitic was a stroke of genius by Bilic. We play so well when our midfield does their thing. Srna was great, as was Pranjic running up the left. Fantastic to see Corluka actually do something for once and push the ball forward.
Ball possession was great and the Germans just didn't get a chance to have any good shots.
Very nervous last 10 min though. Anyway, roll on Poland. Here's hoping the Austrians get a result which means we're through. It would be a shame for us to go back to our ways of playing crap when we're the better team.
:D :D :D |

i know that, but honestly, it seemed as if Germany didn't even want to play, even after 45 min. They just kind of, ran around, with no actual intent to win.
it's kind of political, winning with Poland, 3pts, losing to Croatia giving them the runner up advantage, coming back at full speed against Austria and beating them by 3-0 +, getting first. this is just my opinion. :o |

Errr....with every German paper and 100% of Germans saying it would be 3-0 to Germany, no doubt about it? Yeaaaaa......:stongue: |

| first match I've watched in a long time. germany looked absolutely horrid. maybe I'm just out of touch, but it seemed like the number of cards was just out of control. |
