HAHA, what an awesome day
Seriously, I did not even think about Holland having trouble vs Denmark and then this, awesome
Back to the dumpster Dutchies =DD Haaa, this feels so good. Especially because I can tell this to you Dutchmen. Well, I'm better careful - who knows what happens on Wednesday. Holland has to make points so they will fight ! Robben played as always in Munich: Dribbling on right flank heading for the middle, shoot with the left foot, ifnore the free teammate and kick the ball high above the goal. Go on with that vs Germany dear sir.
Deutschland !!!!
Yea, we played horrible, I admit it. After winning vs Holland last Fall we never came back to the awesome playstyle we had there. I think the first goal was the breakthrough though. Kicking some Dutchies' ass should help motivation too. We were lucky, but that does not matter. We won. It was (I was at public viewing) relatively quiet during the match. Before the match people were singing, atmosphere was awesome. When Gomez scored that goal the crowd exploded of course and people were singing and partying after the game like we won easily 4:0, I like that though
Anyway, Manuel Neuer was really reliable again. We won because of him, awesome keeper.
On another, serious note I have to say something to fan behaviour.
The behaviour of fans ( I speak for Germany here, don't know too much about the developement in other countries) has become a lot worse in the past few years. When I saw the German fans throwing paper balls on Portugese players I felt really embarassed. That's not sporting and those people should be ashamed. Furthermore in the last few years whistling and booing the opposing team has become a trend. That's totally not sporting as well. I noticed this in general though. It's normal in the first few minutes of the game or when a penalty is shot or when someone deserves it with a foul, but just booing a team over a lot of time just because they have the ball is awful.
Another thing is pyrotechnics. I watched the Worlchampionsship 2 years ago at the same location, a local icehockey-and event stadium. Party was friendly and peaceful, football was celebrated like it should be. This year there was more pyro in German stadiums than ever before. I'm not totally against pyrotechnics as long as its fired before the game, limited, people are careful with it and do not throw it on the field.
Today, they fired flares in a closed roof stadium, in the middle of the crowd that was standing there and risked panic and injuries and cancelling of the event. If that continues there won't be any public events for watching football anymore at this great location. They also fired firecrackers, as loud as real explosions and stuff. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a pussy, but this behaviour developed horribly.
This paper pellet throwing and the indoor pyro where I watched made me really angry. Well pyro, booing and throwing things is probably usual in club football, but it's horrible that stuff like that is in the Euros right now aswell. Today they threw paper, tomorrow lighters and plastic wedges, the day after they throw flares and then knives.
It's really sad to me, because those championsships are not just football events they make nations meet and increasingly excessive booing+ throwing stuff makes me pretty sad and angry (especially when it's not even a Germany-Holland derby or similar).
Sorry for wall of text, had to say this.
