France was awesome the first 10min, then struggle against freaking german. But man, this penalty haha!! This is a final right there. It's freaking good football there.
FFS , i missed the first half. Somehow windows decided it was one hour earlier then it really was!!! I did see the goal though so hope i didnt miss too much. 2nd half sure is entertaining , 2-0 guess its going home for germany
Man, football can be harsh sometimes. France absolutely didn't deserve to win today. The referee decided to be the centre of attention with giving that penalty. It was total domination by Germany until then. And again in the 2nd half, Germany created the far better chances, couldn't score though. I now want Ronaldo to win it for Portugal. Would be epic.
Im hoping for France. After all the bad things that happened there, it would be nice for some positive things.
According to quite a few sources, Paul Pogba has agreed personal terms with Man Utd. Juve will get 120m Eur for him. Real Madrid can't afford that. Interesting.
So Portugal´s next victim is France. I almost feel sorry for the french supporters, having to endure a defeat in the final of the competition in their country... So sad... But France has already won some competitions and Portugal is still on zeros, so it´s time for Portugal to finally win something! Vai Portugal, ganha-me esta merda!!!
Yeah shocking decision by the ref. Almost as bad as that Thierry Henry handball Good luck both teams for the final! p.s was amusing Shearer "I cant believe you both think that's a penalty" (To Rio and Thierry..what are they smoking?!?).
In first half, France dominated the first 10min and resisted the 35min following. Germany is known for its heavy ball possession, France adapted with strong defense and fast counter-offensive. It's just 2 strategic approach. And France defense did its job, Germany did not. They haven't managed to goal anything. Speaking of referee decision, it's completely accurate: Does Schweinsteiger block the ball with his hand? Yes, no one is questioning that. Just a bit of history: France - Germany, World Cup, 1982, 3-3 and THIS happened: https://youtu.be/tGq7VcaHoqo?t=30s German Goalkeeper broke France main attacker jaw not even playing the ball (he jump after the ball is even deviated by the attacker). Were there a penalty for it? No. Hell yes Schweinsteiger touched this freaking ball, and hell yeah it deserved a penalty. And if it was only on penalty i would understand the harsh comment. But the 2nd goal is just awesome, capitalizing on Manuel Neuer misplay and an awesome move of Paul Pogba over German defense: The France victory was freaking deserved.
hands in an unnatural position + the fact that it was a hand ball = its hands doesn't matter if it was intentional or not at that point.
not when "hands in an unnatural position + the fact that it was a hand ball" these two and the fact that it was inside the box...easy hands call
