Yeah Dude, It was so intense, We were playig 88 years without pass quarters.

[Waris]

Holy shit Spain won! :wow:

If they don't this would be the first time in the tourney that none of the leaders of the group stage got through.

lol the 22nd June superstition was finally cast off through Casillas's brilliant saves

[Mbob61]

holy crap the Germans are lucky.
They REALLY did not deserve to win that game. I thought they were really poor in every area and Turkey deserved the win.
A real shame for the tournament in my opinion but Turkey have been a revelation.

(Or the Russians) I agree, dont expect to win as too much overconfidence is not good when you lose
That game was the Turks most of the way, did you see the skill the turkish players used to get the ball around the Germans defence? that was brilliant, and the fact the Germans could not keep posession unlike the Turkish...
BTW lol at the Vienna power cuts which caused the picture for the game around the world to be cut off

Hombre, all your cochones belong to us.

[Rayburn]

So we won, eh? I went to bed after Turkey scored the second goal, too much stress for me. I have to agree though, from what I've seen, Germany would have deserved to lose. Our passes were horribly inaccurate and whenever we had the ball, it was swiftly taken away by atleast two opposing players. We on the other hand pretty much escorted them to our goal before we did anything. Many of our attacks failed because there was like one chap running in front with zero passing opportunities following. We simply didn't run enough compared to Turkey. Anyway, now it's all over and of course I'm glad we won. Not as well deserved as with the Portugal-match but what the hell......

Rooting for Spain. Great footballing nation but, like the Dutch, they have always been a let down in these competitions, and it would be great to see them turn that around now.

Plus they have Cesc Fàbregas, one of the best and most incisive passers of the ball in the world. An Arsenal magician.

[TehKiller]

Well Turkey got defeated by their own tactic....they played good but have lost in the last minute and thats how Turkey even got to the semi-finals (as all of their games were last min wins)

[Rayburn]

^ True, that was the only saving grace for the match. The last minute goal was epic.

Well, Spain won 3-0.
Not expected that high score.

call me overconfident or too patriotic but i dont see it happen that the germans will lose to spain ^^ sure the turkey game was a letdown in all areas

We sucked hard that game and it wouldnt have surprise me if we actually lost but due to an epic last minute goal by Phillip Lahm (ya the chap deserved to make it after all the work he put into this team the whole tourney so far) we now stand on the verge of great victory

Spain is gonna be a hard matchup seeing as how they wiped the russians with little to no effort at all but all in all i would say germany takes the cup, spain goes second and the russians will take third place from the turks.

Spain FTW!

[MR.Kim]

That's I thougt.

[Waris]

At last! The underachievers are now in the final.

[TehKiller]

But wont any further than that

Seriously the Germans wont give this one up easily and i really mean it. Unlike Russia who didnt expected (nor planned) to win which was a clearly easily match won by the spaniards. Russians didnt even had any attempts due to the fact that the ball was on their side most of the game. Besides Puyol spain doesnt really have anyone playin defense so they are prolly going to play the bunker and counterattack tactics

[Waris]

Nah if La Roja can do what the Turks did to Germany they can win. Same tactics with much better players. They just have to be more direct at some point, floating passes around the German midfield can be counterproductive.

With David Villa injured Cesc is poised to start this one. About time, old fart

[Crazykenny]

OMG Spain is winning....

[Stinger]

And Spain win it!

Well deserved.
