Have I recently mentioned that I really, really LOVE football?? :)

...only not active playing ones: Thomas Hitzlsperger, ex-German national team player, outs himself. Some months after finishing his career as a player - obviously, one is tempted to say. While I never really cared for him as a player (I mean, Bayern München???), kudos for that!

Dear Jogi Löw,

why in heaven's name did you break apart the team that played so beautifully against Greece, just to resort to the Gomez-centered formation that barely scraped through the first rounds???

My son cried when Italy scored for the second time (with the second chance) while our team just couldn't nail it.

Heartbroken, too:
Me

P.S.:
Grouch just came in - this is beyond my ability to do it justice in English -: "Gomez hat gesagt, jetzt hätten sie (die Bayern-Spieler) zum vierten Mal auf die Fresse gekriegt. Der hat's immer noch nicht verstanden - er kriegt nicht auf die Fresse, er kriegt auf die Frisur!"

Just for the record.

So that no-one'll think I'd be swayed easily by a matchwinning goal or something like that. :)

Spain just was better.

What a game!

And this Wembley reloaded goal? The German team came back from halftime break as if it was counted. Seldom before seen football this guilt-ridden. So, if the English team still didn't nail it... :)

Precious was so excited - And then we'll see Podolski and he will not score all alone but will look for the other players who want the ball (Grouchs mad ravings during Germany : Serbia have impressed him deeply and get repeated regularly since then) - that he actually started crying as we shouted and clapped over the first two goals. Some emergency football in the apartment during the break helped, luckily. Perhaps the Worldcup is not the optimal time for him to start watching tv...

... living at the natural gathering point for any celebratory car parade through the western part of town is no fun. There are children already sleeping (and thank god for this small favour), people!

Still: 4 : 0! *g*
(And Mario Gomez looks like David Hasselhof. And might as well start with the drinking, because being the only forward not scoring doesn't bode that well for the tournament, if you ask me. What you didn't. But anyway...)
