    I had Germany as finalists and Muller as top scorer in KP's comp.

    My chances are going down faster than a Lowenbrau at Oktoberfest.

    Paradoxically I made exactly the same tips in another comp and am leading by 12 - the fix is in!

    Still rather have my Audi than a Hyundai

    @mikethesnow Fun for you guys but I have a German and a South Korean in my team and this morning has been tense. Luckily the Mexican is not here today.

    @marty Ha! Thing is with Koreans is they're only interested when the national side is going well or the odd player excelling in overseas comps. No bugger there watches the K-League.

    Just looking at the graphics of the game, you can see the Koreans ripped into it with the cards etc. and the Germans must have been quite passive and sitting back.

    doesn't matter, nothing will ever take away losing 7-1 in a semi final of a home world cup 🙂

    @sneakdefreak is it wrong to laugh?

    Can imagine the reaction if the ABs crash in say a QF. Thank fuck that's never happened ...

    Not sure what the German goal keeper thought he was doing at the end there - other than making the loss look even more humiliating.

    How pathetic. I would take going out now any day to losing 1-7 at home, in a world cup semifinal.

    Yep. They deserved to go down. They looked slow, tired, badly organised and apathetic. It was hubris in the extreme to continue to have Löw there. He's been trainer since 2007 and was the brains behind Klinsmann before that. Stupid prick should have resigned at the top like Beckenbauer.

    How bad was Özil btw? Weird bird-looking mutha fucka.

    Man, there's some gloating going on in England at the moment over Germany's exit.

    It's a wee bit pathetic really. I get the rivalry but it's based on Germany usually being the better team.

    It kind of smacks of say, Australians gloating over a NZ defeat at the RWC to another team.

    Have a chuckle at it, yeah. Poke a bit of borax. But once it starts looking like gloating, back away.

    England can only wish they're sent packing as the reigning champs. Their time will come soon... 😄

    I've seen Neuer do the same for Bayern Munich in the CL. Germany needed to win not draw so had to score. 1-0 or 2-0 makes no difference.

    Belgium takes a 1-0 lead over England just after HT.

    The winner has the easier Rd of 16 game (Japan instead of Colombia) but ends up on the tougher side of the draw (a potential QF vs Brazil).
