Germany is the greatest football power in Europe thanks to the Bundesliga. So far in this tournament, they have had a lossless record. How impressive is that? They just put away a South American football power without breaking a sweat. England should be a piece of cake for the Germans. Just wait til the fans start clashing in the streets during and after the game!

Argentina got hosed by the f-ing ref. That was a clear foul on Maxi Rodriguez in the box with about 3 minutes left to play in regulation. Should have been a penalty kick, instead they gave him a yellow for diving. I was ready to throw a glass through the tv.
