Ronaldos "Swallow" was the best thing about the whole match, lol.
First he fall down and waited a min if somebody looks into his direction, then he starts rolling on the ground like crazy, plus he hold the wrong knee. He fall on the other one `_`
germany is the best country!!!!!11!!! :P
@SkarmBlisscounter: thats one of the advantages of germany being a multicultural country

As I said Germany to win. :)
The club that Ronaldo 'loves' are being teased around with his silly mind-games, and for what? He constantly complains about incomplete passes that were originally directed towards him but drift away, and vice-versa. Further, he's been in some rough, physical contact between one or two players in the past. Not bad for a 23 year-old?
I admire your sarcasm.
Hahahha to you that picked Portugal over Germany. Overhyping Ronaldo and underestimating Germany in the knock out stages is great. :)
I was rooting for France but shitty luck, shitty playing, the ball being round, and lack of Zidane means I'm rooting for Germany to win the whole thing now.
Croatia-2 Turkey-1(maybe, just maybe)
Croatia is going to beat Turkey even though I'll be cheering for the Turks. They're more technical. Either way though, which ever of them does win this game will get crushed in the semis so I dont care.
Holland-3 Russia-1
Holland's going to beat Russia, 99% sure on that. They've had the best offense and counter attacks so far in the tournament, but they had been riding on some luck and I don't expect them to win this(the whole tournament). Expecting to see the goals early on and their bleh defence to cost them a goal in the second half.
Italy-1 Spain-0 OR Italy-2 Spain-1
Spain's looked amazing so far and dominated when they needed to win. Italy rode on luck and I could harldy say they beat France with skill. Spain is Spain and we all know how Spain does in tournaments.
I'm picking Germany to win the whole thing but Italy is a always superb in knockout stages....I'm not sure if it'll add up that way but I think a
Italy VS Germany or even Spain VS Germany would be the most exciting final. I can't see Holland winning this with their style of play at all.

As I said and hoped before; Germany vs Netherlands final :D
I'm actually pretty worried about our match against Russia since their dutch coach Guus Hiddink knows excactly how the Netherlands play and knows our weaknesses.
I wonder what will happen if Russia knocks Netherlands out of the tourney. I don't think Guus Hiddink isn't that welcome anymore in the Netherlands hehe

good job saying this AFTER the game lol... from their first round performances, it'd be just natural to predict Portugal over Germany
I'd like to see a Croatia/Netherlands final
Germany over Italy in the final
I've been really busy to post on here but I couldn't make that comment before the game now could I? :) Portugal is always a strong team but the Germans got very far in the 06' World Cup and and they've always done better in the knockout stages than they did in groups.
Italy played like shit in the groups but I'm pretty confident that they'll beat Spain and probably get to the finals too.
How do they do it? HOW?
croatia should've won :(
I knew Turkey would've pulled another win out of their asses
Croatia's goal at 119', Turkey's at 121'.
It's natural Croatia were devastated and lost focus on the penalty shootout, though Germany will defeat Turkey for sure, well, I hope not but reality is cruel sometimes. And yes, the third goal for Germany resulted in a foul the ref didn't 'see'. Corruption is a bitch :(

Fuckers, well there goes my money lost. Anyways I'll be cheering on Turkey as me love the underdogs.
I'm on fire with my predictions in this tournament
