Die Mannschaft dazzles!
Jun. 14th, 2010 01:25 amGERMANY!!!! ♥___________♥
That was such a DELIGHTFUL game of football! It was so much fun to watch, from start to finish. Germany has really busted out of the starting gate and quieted a lot of the doubters! They're a serious contender for the trophy now, and I could not be more happy. This is why I fell in love with this team - they play football as the "jogo bonito" (beautiful game) which was the motto we used on my high school team. The precise passing, the amount of thought and intelligence that goes into their play, it's just a joy to watch for any true football fan.
( Delighted rambling about the match. )
THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN. I want to download it and watch it five more times! (Any ideas as to how I could do that? :D?) I don't waaaanna wait five days for another match! *whine*
Does anyone care about spoilers regarding match outcomes? Is anyone watching delayed for some reason? Just let me know, and I'll keep my spoilery reactions behind a cut from now on. For this one I just couldn't contain myself! Also, if you don't know Germany won yet, let me congratulate you on that large rock you're under!
Oh and does anyone know of any fun World Cup blogs? I found one that's been delighting me endlessly: Dirty Tackle. I'd love to hear of others though! I am fully in the throes of World Cup Fever and need something to feeeeed me other than refreshing FIFA and ESPN and BBC all the time!
To add a bit of visual ~flair to this post, I'd also like to point out that Germans are the MOST ADORABLE CELEBRATORS. My gosh! The long, squishy hugs, the tackling and head rubbing and general fondness is SO SWEET. I know football celebrations are generally homoerotic, but man, the Germans ADORE each other. ( Come see how much! )
And if you REALLY don't care about Germany, well, I give you the MOST DELIGHTFUL REF THERE EVER WAS. He PRANCES.
