World Cup Quarter Finals: Game One - France vs Germany (5th July 2:00AM AEST)

[wally funk]

Looking forward to this one a lot. The Germans haven't been as dominant throughout the Cup as I thought they would be, and France are having a pretty good run. I'm hopeful Germany can pull something out of nowhere, but it'll be damn close. 2-1 after extra time.

Apparently the Germans have had a bad dose of the shits go through the squad and Lowe so that could effect them along with all the games they've played in the heat. Beware the tricks of the bosh though.

Not sure about match of the tournament. On paper this is two World Cup heavy weights in a clash that would not look out of place as a final. However I wouldn't be expecting an open high-scoring contest, more so 1-0 either way. Should be close and intense though. I fancy the French here, have liked their play-style more this tournament, but it's really up in the air as to whether they can play the right tactics and also mentally tough out the Germans.

Muller to get his 5th. Germany to win on penalties. I hope Klose comes on and breaks the record too. Should they get past the qtrs even if he doesn't score you'd like his chances with 2 games to go, particularly if Germany plays off for 3rd again.

Germany

1990 - winners
1996 - winner
2002 - runners up
2008 - runners up
2014 - ???

sequence going to go back to winning an they also win again in euro 2020 or do they make the final and lose again?

 

[Public Enemy No1]

Germany little over rated..Amazing record of consistency though
Should be a cracker...

 

[Zach Package]

do the germans have a genuine left back on their squad?

Surely it's time to shift lahm back to the right and play another midfielder

Low has said many times now that it's not happening.

 

[Latro]

Why does a massive hack like Sakho start over Koscielny

 

[juice t]

If history is anything to go by, i'll expect France to surrender 19:40 into the match

And there's my war joke done

 

[Jatz]

At the casino with some weirdo Hull supporter about to watch the game. Plenty of atmosphere here! Go the French!!!

 

[hench]

Here we go.

 

[Plugger35]

C'mon France.

This should be their anthem




Germany should have some boring Rammstein or Kraftwerk shit as their anthem.

I was surprised he did intially but has had a good tournament apparently.

well evidently it has

they've gone Lahm Hummels Boateng Howedes at the back with Schwein and Sami as the two holders, which i think is their best makeup

 

[Loonerty]

Another confusing lineup by Low....

 

[Plugger35]

Wow that's brilliant.

 

[Gak Attack]

Really hope zee Germans do a number on the cesm's here.

 

[BluesMan]

Would love to know what they said...

They probably want a left footer on the left side, cant think of any other reason.

Football v. church.

The school chapel used to always play the hymn as entry/exit music.
