No, I'm not talking about disputing it, but none of the players even changed their facial expression, and the commentators kept talking in their usual voice.

Not bad. Our powerhouse showed itself in the 2nd half. Stupid penalty though.

We need to work on not missing so many opportunities.

Anyway: Deutschland! Deutschland! Deutschland!

Spain should be able to easily defeat France...but will they?

I don't like to mix politics with sport..but I'm pretty sure Greece would be even worse if they had been victorious. And it's pretty amusing Wink

I still believe Spain will win today but it really hit me earlier that the Spanish, who have been far from impressive thus far, could see their reign at the top end in just a few hours. And France has never lost to them in a major tournament so we might be in for an upset...that really wouldn't be an upset.

Of course, I'd love to see Italy beat Spain in the Final but I'm never opposed to an Italy-France Final. Maybe I'm getting a bit ahead of myself... Tongue

Hopefully the French player better in the second half. This is embarrassing.

I hate to agree with ESPN Naso (Lalas) but I don't think France played that poorly.

Oh, God. Bob Lee just said "Real Madrid Stadium."

Well, this result at least confirms that both Semi finals will be rivalry matches (regardless of tomorrow's result).

Spain might be effective...but their games can be really boring. That was a quarterfinal? Think the fans in the stadium must have fallen asleep too.

Spain plays incredibly boring football. I really hope they don't win for that reason alone.

That was an awful game of football. Hopefully tomorrow England can do what they've done so far and take Italy down a peg or two and play exciting football.

When a game has Balotelli in it of course it will be exciting.

Good though that the US primaries are not held on 10 consecutive days.

Otherwise we might find some of our posters here (incl. me) in newspaper reports as well.

Although football is more important than that Wink

Too bad its impossible for the Chinese to just call in and say they are sick in a case like this. Control too tight for that in many cases.
Having a case of "Soccer-flu" during tournaments should be a human right.

Wow, that was a pretty incredible shot from De Rossi.

And as I'm typing Ingerland nearly scores.
