    <p>My Sunday football team would take better penalties than some of those players.  There were some real shockers.</p>

    <p>I'd like to say that was because of the 120 draining minutes before that, but some of these players didn't even play 45 mins.</p>
    <p>Having two of the world's best goalkeepers in the shootout probably didn't help, though</p>

    I have mixed reactions. Yes it was awesome to finally beat Italy but those 3 penalties from 3 highly experienced players were a bit of a stain on German football. They hadn't missed one in a PS since 1982. Schweinsteiger choked like a little bitch. If England had met that lot in 1990, history might have been very different.

    <p>A small price to pay when your other half is Ana Ivanovic.</p>

    A fair result coming up. Portugal denied clear penalty in first 45, second half wales have offered nothing apart from the odd effort from bale.

    <p>Wales really missed Ramsey in the midfield as there was no creativity and link to Bale and Robson-Kanu.  A great effort to get this far though.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Looking forward to tomorrow's SF.  Germany have lost Gomez, <span>Khedira and </span>Hummels <span>to injury or suspension.  I like France to edge this game with the home support.  They need to start well and score first.</span></p>

    <p>Played in too many matches like that. Their best player is better than your best player and that's the difference.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Fantastic run for Wales.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The Welsh team a credit to their nation and football.</p>

    Germany's big problem was Müller. They really missed a proper striker. <br><br>
    The most annoying thing about the whole tournament is that latching on to your opponent in the box just goes unpunished. Ronaldo shafted last night and the Germans tonight.
