2010 World Cup - Germany 4 England 1 - Round of 16

[hellteam]

So who's excited about this game? I am, probably the game I've looked to the most in the whole World Cup.

Predictions? I think England will do better then they have been, but I think this will end in a 1-1 draw, and unfortunately we all know what happens then...

England media have been all over the shootout situation this week. Talks of scientists being brought in to help the players, as well as hours of deliberation from the coaching stuff over who takes the penalties have been covered by the press.

Outcome: Germany through on penalties for me...

 

[Ridders]

Yeah I'm also expecting England to raise their game from here on in. Will be interesting to see how they go when they don't have all the pressure on them, since I'd assume that Germany will be favourites?

On Sportingbet...

Germany - $2.65
England - $2.65
Draw - $3.10

So completely even.. England will always have the pressure on them by their own media.

If England had come first in their group (as expected), they would have only had to face two of Ghana, South Korea or Uruguay to reach the semi finals but now they have to play Germany, Argentina or Mexico. Plus they would probably be facing Spain in the semi so if they get there they definitely deserve it.

England to win 2-1.

I would think the poms should win this.

Whether they do or not though...

 

[fish eel]

Schweinsteiger on doubt too. They'll really miss him considering Ballack is missing.

England will never have a better chance to eliminate Germany in a world cup

 

[abpanther]

Schweinsteiger will play, Cacao is out

 

[Big Mick]

Germany 3 - England 1

Reading some German sites, they dont think they're 'ready' at this stage of the tournament for a top side, and are worried that while england arent playing well, that playing Germany will bring out the best in england

Paul the octopus has foreseen an German victory. He correctly predicted the german victories over ghana and australia and the loss to serbia. Paul knows all, england are rooted.

I would love it if the f**kwits that follow the three lions around the world get sent home packing.

 

[hellteam]

Hoping Milner has a good match, England probably should have Walcott on the bench.

Gerrard should feel at home in England's jersey.

 

[hellteam]

How bored does the commentator sound? Strange.

Ozil just nearly scored and he barely sounded like he cared at all.

 

[fish eel]

Toooor!
