They started almost as fast and attacking as Germany, then pumped it up a bit and now they're basically playing possession when they get the ball and bring-it when they don't. Spain vs Italy, I kind of have to root for Italy at this point.

neuer winning headers at the half way line!
― pandemic, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:37 (thirteen years ago)
Neuer diving header in the centre circle!
― Matt DC, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:37 (thirteen years ago)
Neuter so great atm
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:38 (thirteen years ago)
another one, he should be playing CB
― pandemic, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:38 (thirteen years ago)
wasn't it Neuer who was lobbed by Dejan Stankovic after a header nearly at midfield a season ago?
― boxall, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:38 (thirteen years ago)
Aw why blow now?
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:39 (thirteen years ago)
Fuck me that was exciting.

Ha yes, it was Neuer
16 years of hurt
Great game.

Oh Italy, how I love thee
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:40 (thirteen years ago)
not the result i wanted but v v cool game. Italy terrific. Germany should have stuck to their system instead of changing it.

2 best defences in the Final.
Commiserations pandemic
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:41 (thirteen years ago)
Balotelli standing next to Giovinco is pretty amusing.
― boxall, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:41 (thirteen years ago)
How tall is Balotelli?!
Great game for sure. Man the final is going to be strange.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:41 (thirteen years ago)
6'2 vs 5'4
― boxall, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:43 (thirteen years ago)
Ned, all the more so since we've just seen them play a somehwat dull draw in the group stages
― Love Max Ophüls of us all (Michael White), Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:44 (thirteen years ago)
khedira was good and schweinsteiger in the 2nd half but the rest didn't bring it. Boateng was the out ball but produced one decent cross at most. Ozil was good until Italy scored.
― pandemic, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:44 (thirteen years ago)
Nonsense xp, the group game was the second best game at the tourney
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:45 (thirteen years ago)
Hummels too aggressive on the first goal.
The group game was good yes.
― pandemic, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:46 (thirteen years ago)
group game was a cracker

Germany won't win the next World Cup either, that belongs to Argentina.

oh dear Keown wheeling out the "German arrogance" cliche
― Arvo Pärt Chimp (Neil S), Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:53 (thirteen years ago)
Keown! Nearly every word is wrong.
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:53 (thirteen years ago)
Keown "German arrogance" Fuck Off.
A hoy tipped Italy at the start of the tourney I think. I wrote off Italy when they were wretched against Russia pre-tourney.
― pandemic, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:54 (thirteen years ago)
Keown is actually the worst of the BBC lot just in terms of ignorance
― Number None, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:55 (thirteen years ago)
wasn't the keown-dixon pairing A Breath of Fresh Air when it first arrived? Has the BBC just sucked everything interesting out of them?
― Merdeyeux, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:56 (thirteen years ago)
nah, Keown was just coasting off Dixon and the fact that he sounds a bit posh
― Number None, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:57 (thirteen years ago)
^^^This.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:58 (thirteen years ago)
Speaking very slowly and sounding thoughtful helped as well.
He speaks slowly cos he's a yokel
