alexandralEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I love love love this team, they have the nerves of steel, they are hardy, they are classy and pragmatic, they have team spirit and wonderful goals!! You have to give it to Uruguay for trying until the last minute, but you know - sometimes it is good to give your 100% through the whole match, and not just rely on "Hand of God" and last minute rush. Take it Luis Suarez - you could not do anything about the outcome of this match.
Now, I am afraid, the World Cup is entering in what may be a sad territory for me. I have to admit it, of what I have seen of Germany , they look awesome. But I can't do anything , my brain tells me "Germany are good and wonderful multicultural team that plays great football" but my heart belongs to Oranjie this year. Italy has exited what seems long time ago and the empty place in my heart was filled with Wesley Sneijder and Robben(!!!!!!!!!)
PS: I am trying to figure out why I don't like Germany as much as everyone else does, and I think the real reason is that I always cheer for an underdog. Italy were underdogs in 2006, Ghana and Netherlands are in 2010. Germany have always been a team that everyone think is going to win, and especially so in 2010. And the second, much smaller reason is that some part of me always feels pain for someone who has to lose 0:4 and asks "do you have to flatten someone into the ground?". I am so sorry,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lage_nom_ai! And I do like Germany-the-team, I just prefer Netherlands to win!
PS2: Also "WHAT was that referee doing?" He was a Uruguay fan , or something? I know that the last attack is usually allowed, but not blinking 3 minutes on the top of extra time! And after that he blows the whistle to give a yellow card to Mark van Bommel (who should have gotten a red card - I don't like the guy :D) and everyone thinks "this is it", but the referee re-starts the match for another 20 seconds! And this is the same referee who blew the whistle in the middle of the Dutch attack at the end of the first period!
