Back to football here. 1. I thought it was a very clean game & there was no diving. 2. I also thought the officials called a very good game. Yes in the end Italy was the better team on the day but you must admire the tremendous English defence,especially Terry & midfielder Gerrard, they have nothing to be ashamed of. I wish Rooney would take a page from these guy's book & put out a little more effort for his team.

The usual result then.

Bob

If England had beaten Italy they would have played Germany next.

Had that happened the USA had announced that they had planned to turn up at half time and take all the credit.

The chap who impresses me most is Roy the manager. He seems intelligent and articulate and might even be as good an England manager at the best one we never had. But I do agree that Rooney seemed a bit of a waste of space.

Now that is why I like football so much.
Germany was cruising to the final not dropping a point even in qualifying.
Italy couldn't score against England in open play but Germany haven't beaten Italy in there last 6 meetings.
Italy gave the German defence so many worries and the Italy long ball finally paid off with Balotelli having a superb game.
Such a good game for a neutral (well nearly) to watch.
SUPERB.

Oops! Not a good tactical move for saving Italy's economy, then.
Now it's Spain vs Italy does the winner have its euro debt written off by Sky TV?
Just a thought...............

I agree completely, Bob. I thought that Germany were certainties to make the final but, in the end, the score line flattered them. Italy could, and perhaps should, have scored at least 3 more goals while Germany looked pedestrian by comparison.

I'm really looking forward to the final.

Peter.

Dear All,

Well, knowing very little about football, I think GB did quite well really. Didn't hear anything about any Scottish team/entry, so presume they don't and didn't have one?

Kind Regards, Bernard

And Scotland could nae de it cos they did nae qualify. (in 2012)

Again.
And again
And again and again
And moving on to the World Cup...............

But did you know wullie, The Scottish FA has suggested that perhaps in the future England and Scotland field a joint team. The English FA have responded and made the following statement, “Yes we are completely rubbish, but not that rubbish.”

and

‘What do you call a Scotsman in the first round of the World Cup?’
The referee.

Knorr has released a special Scottish football edition – it’s called laughing stock.

‘What have Scottish teams and a three-pin electrical plug got in common?’ They’re both useless in Europe.

What does a Scottish fan do after his team have beat anyone half-decent? Turns off his Playstation 3.

The Scottish team were arrested at Glasgow airport this morning, and charged with impersonating a football team.

Well all I was half right, I forecast Germany & Spain for the final & that Spain would win.Spain were poetry in motion, I felt sad for the Italians they were made to look ordinary, which they are not, just not up to the Spanish standard, What a team to watch, they were making history. Mick B.

In our little village, in Andalusia, the main road was closed and the match shown on TV in the bars. It was also shown on a big screen in the street. The place was packed and was the best atmosphere I have ever experienced at a football match. The victory was well deserved and the people partied through the night.

Not a policeman was seen, no fighting, swearing or any other agro witnessed. Mums and grandmas with babies were happily mixing with the revellers. A brilliant night was had by all. Viva España!

This country has so much to learn from Spain....family values...great fiestas (esp. Navidad ).. tolerance toward immigrants..healthy eating..and last but not least , how to play (and win) football matches.

See you in Nerja town square this coming Navidad !
