+ Euro 2008 rant +

how could anyone seriously believe Turkey would beat Germany?

Germany is the team that kills dreamers. Reveals the pretenders for the pond-scum they truly are. remember World Cup 2002? when S.korea went on a giant-killing spree, pulling down italy and spain in their wake? i bet 90% of asia was cheering for S.korea back then. not me, not this descendant of a Chinese merchant. feelings of nationality should count for nothing if you're picking winners, or worse, picking a team to bet on... the koreans were hailed as the inheritors of total football, a style made God-like by the Dutch teams of the 70's. Sorry, nil, nada, read the script, koreans were just riding on luck, and it took Germany to pound some sense back into them, and into the rest of us Asians who forget that football is a science more than an art.

World Cup 2006? Germany beat the mighty performers, Argentina. Slaughtered the samba.
