Why? Mustafi is the much better player.
Sometimes it just works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHmIzSlBayw (he kicks every free kick and penalty with that little run)

I just saw his tweets on the English National Team. Fucking Christ, he's going to give himself a heart attack with this shit.
Apparently it's tied with another shootout in Euros. Also, apparently ALL players who missed today currently play in GB? Hilarious if true.

No and no.
Iirc I seem.to remember a shootout that got to 13th shooter, and there was a shootout in a copa america not so long ago (brasil columbia or something like this) where like the first 8 shooter missed.
HELL YES, the curses are broken! I bet on Italy defeating Spain and then losing to Germany. Magic Euro.

This is a hilariously wrong statement. Mustafi is not in the same league as him nor will he ever get there. I wonder when I read comments like this it sounds like some of you started watching footy this year.
Nah but regardless, I think Löw'll switch back to the 4-5-1, with Höwedes replacing Hummels.

He's a great player, but it's a manageable loss. I imagine Löw will shift to the standard four backs they'd been playing, moving Höwedes in for Hummels. Maybe playing Draxler in midfield.
Khedira's injury could be the bigger problem. Schweini doesn't look ready to play a full match.

Could always bring Can.
Jesus christ you guys made it sound like he has done it on purpose,im not crazy of him as a player but everyone can miss a penalty,even the best like Baggio.
I'm sad that conte is leaving but i'm confidente that ventura can do a good Job for the next world cup.
He did do it on purpose. Players on a U10 squad know that taking a penalty with that run up is fucking dumb.
It was his only job tonight. To get in and shoot a penalty. Nothing else. Instead he did a cocky run up and shot for the stars. So he could surely use some humble pie.
But he did play a full match today?
No it wasn't. Germany dominated and Italy only managed to go to penalties because they were lucky with Boateng's mistake and poor German finishing. They got dominated completely.

He fails when trying to outsmart better trainers. Italy didn't show anything today which would have made 5 defenders necessary.
Also stuff like putting Lahm in the midfield was some high level nonsense.

I think that was Parolo's first goal ever also and then just having assholes like that.... jesus.
That was a really bad penalty,no doubt about that but again,it's football,i know how it feels to miss a penalty and hearing someone say that he's done it on purpose makes me mad,it'one of the worst feeling in the world and i'm sure that he knows well that he fucked up.
Did you even watch Spain's back 4 struggle against Italy last week?
From Löw or Guardiola? Or both?
In what? Call of duty?

Neither did Löw.
Germany's strength is the totally domination in the midfield, taking away one players just to put it somewhere where he is several tens meters away from the action is dumb.
Looking how the experiemts ended in both teams. Both.

Italy fucked up on pens badly. Zaza was a joke decision and Pelle's pen was a disgrace lol
LOL
For you italia-gaf.
Of course he did. And he made the right decisions. Italy never got to press deep in the German half, and even though the took out Kroos with two or three men they never managed to kill Germany's control, because Hummels and Boateng always options especially with Kimmich, Hector and Özil.
For you italia-gaf.
Translation please.
Germany "dominated" till a certain line.
Where were the chances?
Our goal was also based on luck.

You didn't watch the same match.
Germany wasn't capable of creating barely more chances than Italy. You didn't need three tall defenders to defend the inaccurate long balls by the Italians, while you would have need another midfielder for creating pressure in offensive and defensive situations.
That's Lapo Elkann, heir of the founder of Fiat Automobiles, who was found many years ago snorting coke in a big drug fueled party with transexual pronstitutes. From that moment on he's been ridiculed every time there's an occasion, especially considering he's always in the news for his idiotic behaviour.
The pic is basically a play on the fact that snorting (coke) and shooting a penalty have the same verb in italian: "i would have shot/snorted better"
No. Another midfielder (Draxler?!) would have been wasted since the CBs would have struggled to get the ball there without Kimmich and Hector widening the field of play.
Look, we can discuss this all night probably, I'm a huge fan of the "Dreierkette" as we call it here and while the game was far from perfect and the win was lucky in the end, Germany still was the better and more controlling team.
To call for Löw's job is something I strongly disagree with. He's doing great and gets results.

Now i'm actually glad Zaza&co fucked up, that image could have not been done otherwise.
