"You know the Germans always make good stuff" -Shamwow Guy, 2008

[Day]

again... fucking lol

[Not not Mattaru]

Germany is on Australia mode now.

[supercoco]

Soccer is a game for 22 people that run around, play the ball, and one referee who makes a slew of mistakes, and in the end Germany always wins

[Wintermute]

Got to love how Heskey just came on.
No pace and hasn't scored a goal in forever. That's the type of striker you want on the pitch.

[Mayareira]

rape

[Lliandra]

Absolutely outplayed. Gg Germany. Am ashamed of our defence. My home town 2nd division team defends better than that tripe.

[octopus]

Any young German strikers want to immigrate to the US? We can take a few...

[Tubie]

Capello's 8million euro a year salary was well worth it...?

[Mayareira]

Heskey is in, watch him firing a hat trick now.

[Mugekuge]

Well at least now that Germany has scored again, the English won't be able to say, "Well if that other goal was counted we could have won in OT." This way, Germany would have won regardless of that goal.

You are making wrong assumptions, if England would have got that goal, they wouldn't be all up attacking, different tactics depending on situations etc.

[Mayareira]

Hint: It is not a goal until referee blows the whistle, bad call, but not a goal. Happens in football get over it.

Spoiler: show

I can definitely understand why England supporters get mad at it, though

I'm speaking strictly based on the score, though. If Germany had just won the match 2-1 then England could have made the argument that they got robbed. With Germany scoring this many more goals though that other one wouldn't have mattered.

[Tyrath]

What a nice save from the goalie.

[Osede]

The QQs in this thread are epic.

Yeah, it was a goal, yeah it was a bad call, nothing's gonna change, world moves on. America keeps QQing about soccer and the rest of the world keeps playing it until 2014 comes around and Americans suddenly care again.

Well it is world cup, the only time where everybody suddenly becomes a soccer fan and pro :D
Honestly, England has been upset me for so many world cups, so this call just doesn't matter. Because I don't think they can advance any futher >.>

Yes but if the game were 2-2 both teams might be playing differently as well. Lot of stuff could have happened different along another time line of events. Germany may or may not have all the goals they have now. But hey time travel to the past is impossible so unfortunately we will never know ;;

[Draggy]

ahhh what the fuuuuuuck

Have to say germany played better obviously. what the hell were england doing, it felt as if they werent anywhere near the attacking goal yet not defending their own goal either, where where the players?

such a sombre attitude in this pub i am in lol time to go drown our sorrows and bitch about our shitty team

If only there was a time travel machine that fixes British defense.

[Baleoce]

Got to hold our hands up. Outplayed, outspirited, regardless of the disallowed goal our defence was just useless tonight. Look at the names we have in our defence. On paper it's one of the best in the world cup. Money/salary means nothing. I guess thats what the World Cup proves best.
