Germany is dominating! This is sad for Greece. I'm surprised Reus and Schurrle are doing so well in place of Podolski and Muller. Schurrle should have a couple goals for sure. And that first goal that got called off, the angle I saw did not look like it was offside. Oh well. I'm pumped.

It's funny, my background is German, and some German exchange students told me my last name actually means "football (soccer) player". Thought that was cool ahaha.
i'm German, and I've been told my name is Russian. go figure that one out.

If this game comes down to PKs and we lose, I'll be very upset.

Not even close.
I just enjoy the fuck out of watching Italy's national team play. Whether it be Olympics, Euro, or World Cup.

Pirlo with an FU to Hart. Only thing I care about is Italy advancing. Bring on Germany.

I don't understand why Germany gets so much more rest than us for this game. Quite dumb.

UEFA, unsurprisingly, fucked up the scheduling. Michel Platini is a moron.

I'd hate to call it an excuse, but like that's shitty. Soccer is fucking tiring as hell. One team should not get that much more rest than the other.

Are you seriously that ignorant to not know names have meaning? Like the last name Swift came from "fast runner". But her name isn't Taylor Fastrunner. It's Taylor Swift. Or the last name Brady comes from "thieving and dishonest chief." But it isn't Tom Thievingdishonestchief. It's Tom Brady.

Cooper and Wainwright are examples from America.
