On seeing the germans play yesterday, it seemed they were too slow in passing in D area, this allowed crotia to recover. germans also lacked energy , too much shouting and yelling was going on. is ballack unfit? he seems to be limping . klose etc are waste. podolski is overhyped. time for fresh legs .

netherlands too playing great football.Should be Portugal and Netherland final.
But what happened in Germany after Hitler? Why Jews found Germany their place to stay after running away from Middle East? Was it not to clean up Jews that he started so many revolutions? By crushing them to death? Aren’t they far superior than any tribe by every aspects? Why he hated Jews?
Why there East Germany and West Germany after Hitler? And again why they joined by breaking the Berlin Wall?
Now where is there position? Both in games and power.
In Football they are becoming loser. Many players (Podolski etc.) are not Germans. Where are those Germans? Cant even find 11 Germans to play for Germany.

Like all Indians, you lack a sense of history. You are probably a techie posted to the US driving a fifth hand Toyota Corolla and craving for a smelly curry and rice. I mean no offense.
I cannot answer your questions in this forum though I have all your answers. I guess I am mad at Germany's defeat and will remain until the 16th when we will play again. Good day.
Personally never had thought of such things: Aryan superiority against Slav (What is that? Never thought of my little knowledge in History, now am worrying) in a Germany Vs Croatia match. Thanks for your information. Such comparisons definitely make matches interesting to watch.
Today’s match is Dutch Vs France. Is there any similar rivalry between these two teams? France seems to be a team full of other nationals: Ethnics. Dutch far better.

Kaushik, Ur such a bigot, I cant understand a person who supports Hitler or any fascist idology, Hitler killed millions of jews and also invaded other countries as he thought he had the might, but he not only lost, but germany was humilated and you saying that u support aparthied..hey which world are you living, would have u liked to see India still in the hands of colonial regime... after all we are all coloured people, the colour of the skin doesnt determine how good or bad your..hitler learnt his lesson the hard way.. and remember today it is Barak obama who is the democratic candidate running for the presedent. Even Germans today hate Hitler for what he did as majority of germans are not prejudice as your.. grow up and use ur brains in the right way.....

Germany lost due to sheer weight of numbers and the strain of fighting a war on two fronts.
Also, they were hamstrung in having a poor high command - Field Marshalls Keitel and Jodl who were unable to handle the generals under their command. Man for man, the Wehrmacht was the finest fighting force of all time.
I do not support Hitler..........I support the pride and honour that Germans lost in World War I and Hitler wanted to restore that and take revenge on countries like France and Poland.
France had devastated Germany in the Thirty years war (1618-48) and Poland had defeated the Teutonic Knights at Grunwald in 1410.
Hitler instead of targetting jews, should have befriended them, he would have won the war and we would have been fifty years ahead today. Germany's treatment of jews was far better than Russia or Poland.
The cream of the Wehrmacht consisted of men like Count Graf von Stauffenberg who were patriots to the core and men like Field Marshall Rommel who rose to the top of their profession despite being from a non military background. It is these men who are worthy of emulation. I trust I am clear.
Gentlemen, it really hurts. I would not have minded losing to England, Holland, Denmark or Sweden but losing to a Slav nation really hurts.
The Wehrmacht did not conquer Zagreb this time, but that is the character of Germany - to come back in the face of adversity. We have done it many times and we will do it again. Even when we were losing World War II, we beat the allied forces at Monte Cassino and had a heroic defence at the Ardennes. We also ensured our Finnish allies defeated the Red Army in 1944. We also defeated the 'operation market garden' in 1944 over Arnhem.
So Germany is not down and out yet. We will not surrender and if we meet Portugal in the semi finals, we will defeat them and send Cristiano Ronaldo packing. Yesterday was an off day and we did not play well. But Germany has come back from these situations and we will return. Europe beware of the sprit of the Wehrmacht and Waffen SS.

But frnd, where is that german? We have seen world cup aginst argentina or that time german who knows only win, That time our team was Yurgen klinsman,Rudi Follar,Lottha mathews,Scinzer and .. and Coach was Backen Bower.
But last 5-8 years german has really problem regarding their attcaking striker.
German is the one and only team who hate loss and won lots of matches in injury time.they can attack any team.
Why they are not grooming their player in that level ??

Where is that german? why they are not grooming their player in that level? we support them for german sprit.

yes, they were all over us in the first hour, then we came back. I thought Metzelder should have got a goal from a corner when he headed just over.
Schweinstieger's loss is going to hurt us, but it means that Ballack, Fritz and Frings would have to take extra load from now. As I said, believing in aryan superiority, losing to a Slav nation hurts badly - people we sent to the gas chambers and whom we should have ethnically cleansed to ensure a communism free Europe. But we will come back strongly.

Mr. Kaushik nearer home, Services routed Bengal by 4-1 in Santosh Trophy. Does it really hurts?
As an jermany supporter, I find yesterday German is not playing his standard.
I have seen Turgen Klinsman,Rudi voiler,Matheus and .... But yesterday they are not that level. They are playing in middle but when attacking then they are loss the momentum in D box.
What happend with this jerman.. I am agree last 5 years German is not produce in world class striker. afer hattrick in WC close are not in seen as an clever attacker.
Previously, German is hate to loss they have won lots of matches in injury time. They give opponent 1st 10 minutes for attcak and then after understanding thet oppponent they played accordingly to that level. They only knows that attack and attack and they played for 11 man not for any star.
