Quarter-finals: France 0-1 Germany - Friday 04/07/2014 18:00 CEST

[General]

Always knew this french team are a bunch of noobies

"best team in the WC so far" lolll

first strong opponent and they're out

the hyperbole here... come on chicken..

France have been great. Germany is just a better team.

 

[FNF]

The team who scraped through against Algeria are in the semis. What a time to be alive

 

[jammin]

Making fucking Hummels look good.

Ban this entire team.

 

[Casualista]

One cross. One fucking decent cross.

 

[G.Costanza]

Who's surprised?

 

[KujaIX]

In a perfect world, both would have gone out.

And Gotze and Durm would have joined me in my room tonight.

 

[Soldier_of_god]

Hummels is the most handsome player out of the all the remaining teams in this competition.

 

[General]

Hummels such a tank... Destroys in the air as well..

Germany really really strong and organized. They played mediocre and really had a hold of most of the match.

I really don't see anyone beating them. The dutch? brazil? ... maybe get a fortunate opportunity with faster play..

 

[jammin]

I still blame the blue shorts as well

 

[General]

prolly.. ok time for that avatar change?

Nah, wasn't impressed by this France at all

they were lucky with the draw

 

[adit]

what a boring match

awful performance from France, they don't have plan B at all

The dutch will hurt them imo

 

[profpk]

germany were more organised and used their physicality well

 

[leaf]

why is it that we have alzheimer's level posts here?

France has played well. The dutch have played well. Germany have played well.

You guys looking for world class play every single match? not gonna happen.

I think that watching CL football and remembering snapshots of brilliance are blurring your vision. They are playing fine. Stop looking for the next Maradona level play. Enjoy the fucking tournament- it's the best WC in a long long time.

Fuck Hummels.

Overrated piece of shit.

Give me Durm any day.

 

[FNF]

-

You too?

 

[Dottore Joey]

Die mannschaft, of course, as always.

Hummels mvp.

 

[jammin]

prolly.. ok time for that avatar change?

02, 04, 08, 10 and 12. Still staying Blue.

 

[Soldier_of_god]

Fuck Hummels.

Overrated piece of shit.

Give me Durm any day.

Overrated in terms of looks or ability as a player? No to both imo .

 

[jammin]

Yea Hummels very impressive, very manshaft, very woerld closse.

Oh there goes the ball over his head. Look at him trying to run back. Oh.

~

French mids, not the CBs, should have played way more and better over-the-top through balls.

 

[KujaIX]

Overrated in terms of looks or ability as a player? No to both imo .

He's handsome, but I'd pick many others over him.

He's good, but I'd pick many others over him.

Perennial bridesmaid.

For me, anyway.

They were very good today. Two phased game.

First half france sat back but germans short passing game was exceptional and they were cutting through. Second half france sat back but german counter attack game was superior. As I said before, the only thing holding back germany is loew (today he had a very good line up), as far as personnel go, germany is just top notch.

France tried to do a real madrid vs bayern by sitting back and not taking initiative early. Only problem is debuchy and evra aint bale and ronaldo. Poor tactically.

 

[Sage]

germany hummels

lolzil still crap and still starting


bye booba

 

[Qaas]

The team who scraped through against Algeria are in the semis. What a time to be alive

Algeria had a pretty decent tournament. Too bad they met germany

 

[Nestafan]

Glad the French are out.
If Argentina don't win it, i hope Germany do.

Love Hummels, has his second goal of the tournament now.

Nope.

France were really bad. Germany were nowhere near what they should be given the quality of players they have.

 

[Dark Knight]

Nah, wasn't impressed by this France at all

they were lucky with the draw

France was good but not like some people made out to be.

First test they faced.. they are gone with a whimper. This team will be good in 2018

germany hummels

lolzil still crap and still starting

Next game hummels makes one mistake and he's gonna be fodder for you

Ozil created the best chance.. not his fault that muller and schurle missed

-----

Germany - Holland final still on.

Come on EU

cman... you're selling Germany a bit short here. not focusing on what a team's peak could be on a given day, the average play of Germany is a hair better than the average play of any other team that remains in the tournament.
