Last nights match was one of the worst i've seen so far -was expecting much more from Spain.

Italy - Germany tonight -should be a thriller. They're all excited over here about it.
Don't think of Italy as my second team - personally i fancy Germany to win it with a few goals scored by either side. Maybe 3-2. Can't say that here though!!

For some reason England don't seem to have the self-belief when it comes to it - they been saying they need to brush up the penalty's for years but it's more than that...ask the Pundits why?

It could go either way but I'm putting my vitual money on Germany 2 - 1!

Their manager has said it was a strategy that went wrong, the idea was that the scores would be 4-4 and Twinkle Toes would score the winner, um, the best made plans of men and mice

We were talking abut it before the match and my son said he thought Germany would win too! What happened to them?

The Italians played a really exciting game -I actually enjoyed it -and you should have heard the cheers! Photo attached of my favourite moment of the match!!

I actually enjoyed the match last night Italy were well worth the win and if they carry on on Sunday its not going to be a forgone conclusion, Italy's football was probably the best played in the tournament so far, the Germans were outclassed and its not very often you can say that, if I was a gambling man like cashy I'd be having a shilling on Italy on Sunday

Well Mo - the Pundits (Linneker and co on the BBC) had a lot of answers. But the German defence was abismal - after Balotelli scored the 1st one they didn't mark him bla bla! The German gave it away.

It was an good game though - the Pundits reckon Germany lost because the German manager changed the tactics!

The Germans lost cuz they only scored 1 goal Italy scored 2

DaveinGermany · 29-06-2012, 18:15

Today was a god day, virtually no one mentioned the footy, 'cept me & our half Croat/Eyetie, my how we chuckled !

Apparently, most of the Krautlings will be shouting for Spain come Sunday.
