It's a kind of mentality a lot of bandwagoners have, and they exist in every nation or team. I wouldn't marginalize the support that Portuguese fans have for their team :/ | ||

Germany - Italy Portugal - Spain very interesting matches. Germany vs Spain finals are very likely, with Spain having a slight edge. | ||

Also, the fans in today's match ENG - ITA were having fun big time! It was so noisy, lol | ||

Cristiano Ronaldo an Casillas playing against each other (obv lots of other players playing against each other of course) will feel weird, I'm so used to watching Real Madrid play, haven't caught too many country-based tournaments. | ||

I don't think it's that likely tbh I would say Germany vs Italy is 60%-40% in favor of Germany. Italy's defense is looking so damn solid and Pirlo can find a hole in every defense they just need a striker who scores instead of Balotelli... Spain - Portugal is in favor of Spain obv. but Portugal does have a chance. Spain usually plays with their defense on the half of the field so if Portugal manages to send Ronaldo in that space with his speed I can easily see them score. I don't think Spain showed how good they really are though I think they've only been playing on 80% so I would give them the edge in this game with 80% chance to win :D. | ||

Get your shit straight dude, Italy did win the game last night, but that was on penalties, and against England, a team that has not impressed at all as of late. I predict Germany to win the game, and its not cause Im dutch and dutch people have a secrect crush on germans, no, their team is clearly the better one. As for you RvB, well I guess you just have to study more football, xD | ||

As for you RvB, well I guess you just have to study more football, xD I think that assesment for the Italy Germany game was pretty reasonable, I dont like putting a number on it but theres no reason Italy cant give Germany a game and a very good one at that. Why does he need to get his "shit" together when hes making the same prediction as you are? I think its you who need to get his "shit together", making a half assed assessment and telling people they dont know anything, especially when you come in and say the same thing. Or would you wager that Germany is 100 percent a confirmed winner and we shud just give them a bye ? I think Italy were very impressive, England were a tough not to crack and Italy wasnt lucky. On another day they put away their chances. On yet another one maybe England even sneaks in a goal and defends it to the end. Thats just the game. Germany while the best team at the tournament and pretty clear favourite is no infallible juggernaut. They can be beat and Italy while not the better team to me has certainly showed enough football to be able to beat them on their day. | ||

Now Rebs, my pakistanian friend, forgive me for making "a half assed assessment and telling people they dont know anything". Not that im quite sure of what it means, but considering it involves the term "ass" alot i asume it is something I "would do". (no pun intented). Back OT: Yes, Italy played good, but I think that it was more of a trick, a shadow on the wall. You see football is a curious thing. When the other team (England) only defends, then ofc it will look like Italy is much better. But that doesnt mean that they (Italy) per se played good football, and it certainly doesnt mean that they have much of a chance against a team such as Germany. | ||

If they make half the chances they made vs england I don't think germany will be able to keep their sheet clean. I think italy has a slight advantage cause pirlo. | ||
