Oh ok he clearly doesn't know shit lol

Found out who it is, Garry Birtles.

 

[spidye]

I want to see some german tears please.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

Outside of those last 5 minutes, that was boring as fuck.

 

[KingSnake]

Wait, weren't 2 Italians offside anyway?

They weren't active, they didn't play in that action.

 

[Oersted]

That Turkish Airlines ad is so random

 

[Loris146]

Giaccherini is amazing. Is fucking op right now.

 

[T-Rex.]

Decent half. Wish this tournament had more goals though.

 

[Dinda]

Löw is such an idiot. His stupid tactics will cost us the game again..

 

[PdotMichael]

I can't believe how Löw thought that weakens the midfield aka the strongest part of the team was a good idea.

 

[Bersi]

Doing good so far, Germany is obviously making the game but so far we had the best chance.

 

[casiopao]

Man, the atmosphere is insane for this game. While no goal happen yet. Any chance that happen is damn scary.

 

[Jamie OD]

Tactically this game is very intense and interesting.

I'm also bored

The BBC crew just had a moment similar to this.

 

[Lunafreya Nox Fleuret]

Italy playing well.

 

[faridmon]

Loved the first half, few chances, but its so intense.

 

[dragonbane]

As a Welsh fan. I'm a lot less concerned about having to face one of these two teams than I was if we do manage to take out Portugal.

Uhhh no. You should be very concerned. Both teams just play well here which usually results in boring football with few exciting moments.

 

[Hedrush]

Not the greatest was it. I really thought this would have been a cracking match. So disappointed so far and it's only going to get more tighter in the second half.

 

[Oersted]

Has Italy any good leftwingers?

 

[Furyo]

Next half Italy plays it all on the offence, scores 4 goals.

 

[JP]

Uhhh no. You should be very concerned. Both teams just play well here which usually results in boring football with few exciting moments.

Luckily, I didn't say that I wasn't concerned.

 

[Haunted]

FUCK this is so intense

 

[Oersted]

I see Italy slightly ahead

 

[ShinRPGamer]

This is not the same Italy that played against Spain, that's for sure. Match isn't as exciting as I had hoped eithet. Hell my nerves actually calmed down half way through the first.

Let's see what the second half is like.

 

[SgtCobra]

Matches like this aren't good for my heart.

 

[faridmon]

Ugh, that is why I hate reading GAF with these matches. Some people calling the first half boring.

 

[Shambalakan]

First half was garbage other than 1,2 moments. but those moments were fantastic!
Neuer and Buffon should warm up themselves again for second half.

 

[paperboywriter]

Next half Italy plays it all on the offence, scores 4 goals.

That's basically vaterlandsverrat.

 

[xVaalbarAx]

This game has been great.

 

[jelly]

Pretty boring so far.

 

[pheron]

Has Italy any good leftwingers?

Insigne is quite good

 

[Bersi]

I envy those who say this is boring,this is intense as fuck for me lol

 

[dragonbane]

Pretty even match so far. Either side could win. But still very intense

 

[G.ZZZ]

What a game, both teams are playing really good and it's an incredibily tense game. Bonucci is god

 

[Hedrush]

Ugh, that is why I hate reading GAF with these matches. Some people calling the first half boring.

Well for the neutral it was.

 

[faridmon]

I envy those who say this is boring,this is intense as fuck for me lol

You can tell who is a football fan and who is here only for the heck of it.

Well for the neutral it was.

I am neutral and having fun.

This is not Portugal V Croatia, like that other guy have said.

 

[Arex]

good half, both teams are playing well, just missing the goals XD

 

[Firemind]

Ugh, that is why I hate reading GAF with these matches. Some people calling the first half boring.

Buncha casuals

 

[mnz]

This game has been great.

Pretty boring so far.

Well, you're both right

 

[casiopao]

Ugh, that is why I hate reading GAF with these matches. Some people calling the first half boring.

Yup. Both team had been playing on highly intense tempo. It is just both team is playing very well by not leaving lots chance for the foes to score.

 

[Hedrush]

You can tell who is a football fan and who is here only for the heck of it.

This is so false. I'm a huge football fan and im certainly not here for the heck of it. It was a boring first half. Nothing of any real note happened to get you off your seat.

 

[Oersted]

Italy lacks precision, Germany ideas

 

[Haunted]

Different aspects of football appeal to different people. Not everyone has an appreciation for the high level passing, techniques and tactics on display here.


It's going to come down to which team makes the first big mistake. Though the way we've missed chances in past games doesn't fill me with confidence even if we get an opportunity.

 

[John Dunbar]

intense match. it's a shame italy didn't manage to score that end. would have been good for the game.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

Lmao, football elitism.

 

[faridmon]

Ozil have been very Ozil so far.

This is not Portugal V Croatia, like that other guy have said.

yeah its an arm wrestle, but kind of a boring arm wrestle. I think Germany has the edge but that was an open goal end first half, they could easily be one down now

 

[chadskin]

Let's hope Italy's old men are getting tired in the second half.

 

[wachie]

I see Italy slightly ahead

With 80% of the time defending. Nah.

Man, the second round is going intense as fuck again. My heart stand still here.

The referee also don't give lots of fuck lol. He is keeping the game running non stop here.

 

[Oersted]

Mou laughs

 

[horkrux]

lol what is going on here. I was at the edge of my seat!
