Germany vs Spain

[MmeLindt]

Who is joining me?

I'm watching MmeLindt. Still don't know who to root for, I like them both. It'll come to me as I'm watching.

I'm there. Still sobbing over Ghana but enjoying the youth and vitality the Germans are offering.

Join me in supporting Germany then, I will share the Bier und Brezeln.

DD shouting at them to hurry up as she is sleepy and wants to go to bed.

Germany. I used to have gorgeous German boyfriend many moons ago so I kinda have a soft spot for them

Oh, a streaker.

I'm supporting Germany all the way
I thought the Netherlands were a bit dull last night

sidles in with a large rioja

Going to open some German wine now.

Oh, my nerves!

rioja here too, but expect the germans have already got their towels out on the seats at the stadium in Capetown for sunday

LOL

I will tell DH that one.

Gotta be Germany here cos DH has a bet on them!!!!

DH is half- Dutch so we are with The Netherlands!

but tonight, with Spain..

mind you it looks to be Germanys game very much so far...

The Germans get somewhat unbearable when they win things like this, but they are playing really well at the moment and would deserve to win. What I like most about the team is that it's the first really multicultural one - Özil, Boateng, etc. This will hopefully do a lot to convince the majority of Germans that you don't HAVE to be called Müller and have an ethnic German background traceable back to 10 generations in order to represent your country.

Is it true that 'to be mullered' is now an expression in the UK following that UK-Germany match?

Mme Lindt, I'm drinking Jever rather than Becks. It's been so loud here for every German goal so far in this World Cup - not just the Vuvuzelas, but the fireworks. I didn't know you could buy fireworks legally in summer.

That is true. My DH commented on the fact that there are very few "German" names on the team.

Most of the goals in the whole tournament for germany have been scored by Poles.

Hmm, rather disappointed with that first half.

I'm not watching as I'm making soup but I'm checking the BBC site reguarly.

I want the Germans to win.

Still neutral. Spain won the Euro, so by rights it should be Germany's turn. And Spain had the easier run to the semis. But Germany won the Eurovision Song Contest...

Oooh here we go.

Keeping an eye on the score - curious to see who we'll be playing Sunday ..

Oh dear oh dear. This is not looking good. Wish Germany would get a move on a score. Spain are looking better at the moment.

will the octopus be right again then?

I hope not.

I'm listening, but not watching.

Based on listening, it seems a boring game. Is watching better?

Ok - not boring!!

Earlybird
