England Out of the Soccer World Cup

Sunday, June 27th, 2010 |

Germany have always been my ‘other’ soccer team during Soccer world cup.

So it was with delight that I celebrated their victory.

That England were their opponents made the victory even sweeter.

England are my least favourite team in any sport!

Seeing four goals go past the English defence was just unbelievable. Although the English media will likely blame the disallowed goal.

Speaking of the English media…they were so obnoxious before the game. Calling Germany average.

However, they are rather funny when England loses.

Before the game I too admittedly wrote off Germany’s chances. And I told my friend that England’s winning the match would be good for keeping English fans in the country.

By the time Klose scored the first goal, I couldn’t give a damn about the SA economy.

Good times.
