results

As the Germans systematically tore apart the Argentinians, I begin to believe in a new style of football. The clean and simple football. One without fanciful dribbling, without any prima donnas, no diving; simply no frills. This world cup, the Germans seemed to have found a formula to winning - and with a large goal margin. Their style of soccer was not fanciful, but it did not make their matches any less exciting. I'm not so sure if I can say the same for all the fans out there, but found it terribly exciting to see big teams desperately try to hold their ground as the Germans knock in 1 goal.. 2 goals.. 3 goals.. and 4 goals. Merkel seemed extremely happy during yesterday's match. Maybe she's a football fan. Or maybe she's thinking maybe the people will cut her some slack from the budget cut and president candidacy issues. Fans of Spain - watch this space.

Go Germany!! Bring pain to Spain!!
