I think Italy deserved their win but to say Germany "got whooped" rings false to me.
...Are you saying Germany dominated? [...] Now you're gonna tell me the best team lost? ...
Originally posted by FMFYou are delusional if you think Germany played well. They failed to score despite every advantage given to them by the organizers. More days rest, less travel. Are you kidding? Look at the score! Silly PK given or it would have been zip! How dare you accuse me of lying. Germany did not dominate. Your stats you post are meaningless without scoring! Face it. Germany was outclassed, outscored and failed to score against the superior team. Germany got whooped! Nothing they did worked! That's a whooping. It should have been 4-5 zero! Score does not reflect the real on field frustration Germany was subjected to. Deal with it. Germany, heavy favorites, culd not solve the Buffon or shorthanded Italy defense scheme. Italy dd nt even throw all 11 onto the backfield like England did against Italy. Italy defended with a patchwork defense missing Maggio. That's domination! I guess according to you matches should be decided on number of shots and passes instead of goals? You live in a world of make believe football!

So the boring (according to robbie carrobie) Chelsea boys not only tear into the Italians for goals 3 and 4 but also the brilliantly rising and unselfish Torres denies himself a clear Golden Boot to set up his club and country colleague Mata. Class pure class. Not boring at all really.

Unquestionably Spain taught Italy a footballing lesson. Congrats to Spain, arguably the best team on earth!
think not, its just like the English to make some stupid and baseless claim to try to
bolster their pathetic egos. No luck Scacchi dude, you were unlucky and the score
does not reflect what might have been had Italy their full quota of players, even at 2-0
down, had Italy scored, there may have been some hope, with ten men, it was nigh
impossible. You should be proud of what they achieved.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieItaly have nothing to hang their heads about! Simply put Spain were too much of a handful. Spain will certainly be a force in need of being confronted with care once they get David Villa back which will only make them stronger! Spain won it fair and square and deserve the admiration of the world!
