    And the germans came crashing down.
    I fear for what might happen. The germans will grab their pitchforks and torches and march towards the sealife Oberhausen, preparing to lynch a being that is far beyond their understanding.

    And Paul will crush their sanity.

    The real question is, were Germany put off by the prediction of the squid or was the squid truly psychic?

    Germany needed to change the system at half time, instead of eighty minutes. They were being dominated in the centre of midfield and a 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 would have allowed them more purchase in the middle of the park and the ability to spread the ball wide much quicker.

    Well played Spain, perfect tactics.

    Who'd have thought not marking Puyol at a set piece wouldn't work out for you?

    Our whole front room nearly exploded when Pedro didn't pass to Torres.

    This. If England aren't winning I'd like someone new to win the cup.

    woot...I think I've spent the last 30 minutes screaming (edit: and calling everyone I know!). Man, I can't believe it!

    By the way, I really want to kill Pedro/Villa/Torres. So many wasted chances. But whatever, I don't even care if Spain doesn't win. First time in the finals!

    Germany actually started to play a little toward the end there. It would have been a more interesting game if they had played during the first eighty minutes, too.

    Anyway, good job Spain. I'm rooting for them in the final.
