My comment was geared more towards other teams than Brazil (they are Portuguese, basically), e.g Argentina :p

Oh, so i forgive you. :laugh:

j/k

Actually i like Argentina....they played better than the Germans.....oh well...this is the past.

Congrats Italy, was a very nice game.

Congrats to the referee too.....the best one so far in this WC imo too.

I'll b behind france when they'll b playin against portugal. I would really love to see ronaldo's face when his team get beaten. I want to see him cry. He's just a little b*tch.

Go france, go zidane, go henry.

Let me guess.

Are you from England ?

:laugh: :laugh:

Ah man :cry: Was rooting for Germany since the beginning. Lehmann played very well.

Italy did play well but, almost all the time it was an Italian that would tumble down majestically and say "OMGOMG MY FACE MY FACE" when someone hit him in the back with his knee.

A long match it was, was going nuts, rain struck my dish and I couldn't see **** starting from 81 minutes for the next 15 minutes.

Now, France has to do it! :laugh:

I agree that the italians were diving, but can you (honestly) say the germans weren't?

The Germans dove the same, if not more than the Italians. Please, lets get away from this stupid dive talk :rolleyes:

When can a team win and not be blamed of diving? :no:

When they don't dive

poor defending throughout the game by the germans. What was happening in the right flank ? The italians could easily breach each and everytime. What were mertakasar and mertzelder doing ? Were they missing Frings in the middle?

I honestly thought they looked scratchy from the beginning and the defence was totally haywire. No proper markings, 2 people running behind the ball .... Sucked today to support the germans.

Hopefully France does make it thru to finals and beat the italians.

they probs were, but thing which ticks me off is the way the italians fall down in, such acting at times, gets annoying when you see it game in game out

yeah italians just love acting..and so much of it! anoying team really!

    • What browser do you prefer to use, and why?

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
