Today, my heart has been torn to pieces (just when I was still sewing it back together!) by not just one man, but eleven. LOL. Yes, I'm talking about the football team I have been supporting all this while - Germany.
Just when I thought they were at least going to go for another penalty shootout, within the final two minutes of extra time... one goal for each minute was scored by Italy. Like, OMG. It totally crushed me. TT_____TT
Ah well. There's always 2010. This time around, the teams that were expected to at least make it to the semi-finals did not make it, and Germany... oh Germany. Never mind. Ballack's still hot. Heheh.
Got to say something about England when they battled it all out against Portugal. I admired the fact that they stuck out to the very last minute with ten men. Ferdinand's blocks were awesomely accurate. Beckham was taken out too soon, but he is getting old anyway. :( Lampard (he's cute), he's had so many chances at the goal, though none proved to be successful, at least he tried. So did Hargreaves... and Rooney, what a little push to your team-mate could do... (though I really think he did not deserve it, at the most, a yellow card to Ronaldo for butting in something that required nothing of his concern). But when it came to the penalty shootouts... OMG. Hargreaves got one in, just by luck. :( *it totally sucked, kay?*
Heck, I'll be rooting for Germany for third place nonetheless. I'm not really interested in who will win the cup now, but I do want to catch the finals for the adrenalin rush. :) I still want a German football team jersey, though.
