Good game by Germany so far, much better than in the Algeria game.

Not that France is playing bad or anything, Germany is just better.

Someone needs to do a gif with:

Neuer raises arm, punches ball away and says: "Like I care ..."

How about putting an "R-MI"-avatar on her forehead ? Or a "Life sucks, let's vote FN" one ?

"Diese Sendung steht Ihnen aus rechtlichen Gründen leider nicht zu Verfügung."
Wonder what lawful reasons are these exactly? Being in the wrong country?
Yes. ARD doesn't have rights to broadcast the game to Bulgaria.
But apparently it does have the right to broadcast in Austria. The ORF must be very understanding...

It's working here and not in Bulgaria ?

Strange.

A good omen for the SA teams:

In WC history, no European team has ever won against a South American team on South American soil.

Netherlands-Chile? Switzerland-Ecuador?

I have read it again: The statistic is only for the knockout-stage.

LOL, the Kronen Zeitung had to censor itself after one of its columnists used Nazi-style wording in his column today:

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.



"I belive in German football, I love it. Its strength and passion. Its rearing-up in seemingly hopeless situations. Its flashes of genius. Its black-red-gold unity. Its German chivalry in 11 players. Therefore: Today the Brazilians and tomorrow the whole Football-World. With an Endspielsieg in Rio."

"Endspielsieg" is of course a modified version of the Nazi "Endsieg" ... Tongue

This thing is certainly worse for Brazil than the 1950-beating, because of all the Internet-memes these days ... Tongue

Really depends how Germany plays tomorrow ...

If they have a bad day like against Algeria, they are done.

If they play like Brazil, the will win.

And if they play "normal" it could be a rather boring game (OT or penalties).
