2-0 to Germany now.

Hummels is such a great player.


Ozil is having a decent game.

Portugal done and dusted in the first half. Germany are incredibly strong.

Robben calculated to have run at "10.28s 100m" pace in that sprint for his goal on Friday night. Pace!

Soo far Germany and the Netherlands have looked the teams to beat.

Its crazy that Germany still have such depth even with: Gundogan, Sven Bender, Lars Bender, Badstuber all injured.

USA fans completely disrespecting Ghana, really hope the US loses tonight.

What did they do? I'm supporting both African sides tonight, unsurprisingly.

The BBC have received 445 complaints about Phil Neville's commentary on TV on Saturday night

 

[cini65]

To be fair, Neville's response to the complaints was quite good natured.

 

[TheOXOCube:5pur2]

Not sure which annoyed me more Iran's parking the bus or Nigeria's inability to have a useful final ball

Sunderland fans get another chance to see their hero Gyan

America can **** off

 

[Han Shot First]

Damn, Altidore is injured, means the USA might bring on someone with actual talent.

 

[TheOXOCube:5pur2]

You were saying

Ghana 2-1 USA. USA have their 1, Ghana will get their 2

 

[TheOXOCube:5pur2]

Portugal given a lifeline. Germany will sweep this group, Portugal will get 2nd

****ing hell it was a good win but now these idiots are celebrating like they won the World Cup.

Eh? Whether or not Muller exaggerated like a tart (and he did) Pepe still caught him in the face when he didn't need to have his arms flailing about. Regardless, the ref had spotted it and rightly chosen to ignore it. A much stronger message would have been to have Pepe completely ignore or, better yet, point and laugh at what an idiot Muller had made of himself. As it was what he did was lunacy and played right into the German's hands.

It's no worse than Simeone's dramatic fall when Beck's flicked his foot out. There are players who will try these tactics and mind games and you need to be intelligent. Pepe, throughout his history, has shown he's almost full ******.
