yep. england have good players but not so great together. i think this is a problem from englush culture... the media and the football lifestyle.patrick bateman wrote:fantastic football by the Germans.
Even if England had got the 2nd goal, I'm sure they would have lost, Germany was just a better team today, way better.
i bet that at least one english newspaper will blame the referee and make a bad joke about germany.

mhhehh.
one thing that annoys me about football. it really brings up some of the worst feelings in people's countries about other nations.
i guess with some people/countries it's just friendly competition, but the England Germany tie is a good example... some pretty bitter rivalry there, and it's not nice that these matches can allow irrational bad feelings to surface.
Partly it's only stupid people and racist people that are crazy enough to make assumptions abou whole nations, but I think it's possible that people who don't mean to be nasty get caught up with these bad feelings.
It seems that all people on this forum are talking the same language of friendly competition and enjoying the sport. So that's good.
Anyone else feel the same?

We were shocking - awful organisation and Germany took full advantage of our shortfalls. We deserved to lose.
