Looking at how you root for your team this WC, I am truly thankful Russia didn't make it,Sonicron said:... So... much... awesomeness. I can't fucking believe it. 0:4. I think we may have just blown the Maradonna Mythos to smithereens.
Screw it, no more studying for me today... I'll have dinner now and then I'll party my ass off!
Because if it did, it would've spoiled the WC for me.
I hope they appoint him as the penalty taker.CK76 said:
I really like Klose and I want him to take that record for himself.
4:0 for Germany. Mere words cannot convey how truly awesome this is!
Now I only have to hope that the Dutch lose...

Huh? I'm not sure I follow. Is there something wron with the Russian team or their fans? I'm not exactly well-versed in these matters. ^^°JourneyThroughHell said:Looking at how you root for your team this WC, I am truly thankful Russia didn't make it,Sonicron said:...

And is there something wrong with me rooting for my team?
Heh. Looking at the streets below me I'd say you'll be hard-pressed to find a sober person around here tonight.
-EDIT- That reminds me... someone give Paul the octopus an extra clam today for being right yet again.
No, it's just that with Russia not participating I can enjoy the World Cup more without being overly nervous.Sonicron said:Huh? I'm not sure I follow.

Our team would either completely fail or would do unexplicably well, and both of those aren't too good for nerves.
Here's hoping for Germany vs Spain... Good match to tire the Germans for their battle against the Netherlands. (no disrepect Uruguay, but the Dutch beating Brazil only to lose against Uruguay would be silly (though I admit, not impossible))
I guess I can get behind that kind of thinking.JourneyThroughHell said:
I normally don't give a rat's ass about soccer (or any sport for that matter), but now that I've been swept up by the collective good mood our country's in I wouldn't want to miss the feeling of nervousness and excitement for the world!
I wonder who's going to be the 4th team to make the cut for the semi-finals. I have a feeling it'll be Spain, but with this crazy World Cup you never know.
Woooo! Man, I'm exhausted! I just marched up a small mountain to get back here but, damn, I'm happy. 4:0, I mean, dude! Against Argentina! A lot of folks said we'd fail this time around and it was pretty tight in the first half (the Argentinians seemed faster and better in control despite the early 1:0) but the second half? Damn! I mean, I hoped we'd win but I never expected anything as high as that!!

Just two things that blemish this victory for me somewhat:
The first is the most obvious, Thomas Müller is blocked for the next game. Damn! He not only prepared a lot of goals but made several himself, his absence might really hurt us.
The second may seem a bit weird, but around here they always talk of this "young, unexperienced team", damn, guys. They've proven themselves several times now, stop being so fucking condescending, sports-commentators!

Anyway, Germany and Spain (they'll beat Paraguay most likely) are both really, really quality teams. Still, Germany beat Argentina 4-0, so I'm gonna say Germany's gonna win it all now.
Have you seen it? Have you seen this goalkeeper super fiesta?
Holy hell, that was absolute mayhem.
Two penalties in a span of two minutes, both saved by keepers. Fantastic.

Awesome quarterfinals in this world cup.
Let's hope the last four games can top that.
And that, in the end, germany gets the trophy.

That PK stuff that was going on earlier in the half was absolutely insane. I thought the drama with the Ghana PK was bad, but a PK for both teams, one of them being called back because of encroachment? Christ.
And David Villa is just... wow.
