Group D - Germany, Australia, Serbia, Ghana

[GIMH]

No, but it becomes more complex for them to have to qualify

 

[ripper868]

Podolski....terrible...

 

[BoyBrumby]

Is Australia's WC over if Serbia wins this?

Makes it v ticklish. Even two wins wouldn't necessarily see you (? not sure where your football loyalties lie) thru now.

EDIT: Actually, I think they would. Ignore me.

 

[Burgey]

If we win our last two we'll go through, assuming the Hun beat Ghana.

Can't see us winning our last two though, unless its the biggest turn around since, well, Serbia frankly.

 

[duffer]

Game of the tournie really. Not a great result but a really fun watch that.

 

[Uppercut]

You go through regardless if you win your last two games. But if Germany won all of theirs then a win and a draw would have probably been enough.

Germany look no less potential champions on that performance, but fail to beat a very solid Ghana side and they're probably gone.

 

[andyc]

Yeah, really entertaining match. ****ing annoying for us, but well done to Serbia; their first win as an independent nation.

 

[Scaly piscine]

I think you're all forgetting that Podolski is part Polish, which is I think the part that took that penalty.

 

[The Sean]

Yeah two wins will put us through, but it has to be two wins. Given the GD issue a win and a draw almost certainly won't be enough.

 

[Burgey]

I do love the genuine pain Craig Foster and Sir Les feel at our plight. Thought Fossie was gonna cry there.

Gave it to Podolski too re. the penalty.."The worst penalty in WC history.. Well, our WC history anyway".

Gold.

 

[Johnners]

Jesus. First England win a global limited overs tournament and now Germany are missing penalties.

Wonder what the third sign of the apocalypse will be?

Must've been the Pole coming through in him

Haha yeah, definitely didn't seem too impressed.

In other news, I don't think I can get through that whole McDonald's ad with the little kid without going crazy. Blow your nose FFS.

 

[LongHopCassidy]

Was worth it just to see the German coach blow his load at the end. I don't know that guy, but if I did, I bet I'd hate him.

Haven't seen that ad, but it always does my head in where whenever I'm on a flight there seems to be some ****wits who insist on doing that thing where they sniff really hard with nostrils blocked up with thick snot and you get that horrible equivalent of a hocking type noise people do before they spit. Then they repeat this every minute or so.

Should make it a capital offence.

 

[Burgey]

Anyone seen that ad where the dad's sitting in front of a tv on the phone to his daughter during the WC? Wishes her goodnight, she says she misses him, he says "Me too". Then he hangs up on her.

The camera pans out and he's in his own loungeroom, she's 10 feet away.

Thought it not bad tbh.

Haha nah it's just a kid with blocked sinuses. See here.

Agree re: the sniffing though. Drives me nuts. Unless I'm the one doing it

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Horrible result for us. Entertaining game, but seriously, **** Germany.

Massive awta, **** knows how he scored 2 goals for the other team with a cold...probably infected his own team before the game...

Slightly jealous he's in South Africa at the moment tbh

On that evidence he's half English tbh.
