Wouldnt mind Suarez biting Pepe, although he would probably get a food poisoning from it.

No, your oririginal point was that those 2 world cups werents irregular or at least one of them wasnt, otherwise we wouldnt lead this discussion. Whether germany invaded austria to help italy win the world cup or not really hasnt anything to do with our discussion. Lets settle this discussion: Do you think that the 2 first world cup wins for Italy were irregular or at least extremely shady or not? Obviously you are trying to change the discussion here, but just implying that german or brazil world cup wins might have been irregular too wont do anything, so i am gonna ask you to provide proof as i did with the italian world cup wins.

Yeah thats exactly how i feel during most discussions on here, a grown-up among children. Lets hope that you guys will grow up too.

Hmmm, you think Austria being forbidden to play by Nazi Germany can't be considered a scandal that throws shade on Italy's win?

I don't remember insulting you or Poleand, so by ingnoring me you won't miss anything. If i feel the need to insult Poland or you i promise to do it via PM.

Where exactly did i write that? You clearly don't seem interested in an honest discussion, insulting me won't help your point.

In 1938 Germany invaded Austria, so Austria couldn't participate at the world cup, who benefitted from it? Italy, the same country that fought with Germany during the 2nd world war, coincidence? 2006 was also a joke. Materazzi clearly insulted Zidane, but Zidane got the red card despite barely touching Materazzi. Now we have VAR, so things like that probably won't happen again, i predict a very dark future for Italy at the world cup, they can't trick their ways to titles anymore, that's probably also the reason why they declined to participate. Interestingly enough the team that benefitted from them declining was Sweden, the exact same team that eliminated Germany, coincidence?

I am very sad about serbia being eliminated, the referee was scandalous! Now guys like Shaqiri are rewarded with reaching the next round, while the serbians are punished, it's very tough to take to be honest.

You clearly seem confused, please quote where i did what you claim i did, otherwise i have to report you for telling blatant lies about me. Thanks! PS: You replied to me at least once recently, do you just feel the need to lie or are you just a person who forgets rather fast? PS2: On sunday you insulted me, then i reported you and your comment had to be deleted (page 239 in this thread) and now you say a) You don't reply to me b) You "never refer to specific users in any way that would make them feel bad ..."? I don't get it, why are you telling lies that everyone can easily find out as lies?

Thanks for the free language lesson, maybe you should try to learn some history. Here is what happened during the semifinal of 1934 world cup between Italy and Austria (i try to translate it from german wikipedia): "The game was decided by a controversial referee decision by Ivan Eklind, who had been welcomed the day before by Benito Mussolini as an honorary guest. The only goal of the game was score in the 18th minute, when several italian players pushed the austrian goalkeeper Peter Platzer, who had the ball in his hands, over the line. Ivan Eklind (the referee of the game) even actively interfered, when he prevented a cross from reaching the free-standing austrian attacker Karl Zischek with a header" https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft_1934#Halbfinale

That is true, one thing that both teams have in common is that most of their players got 2 years older, so maybe that's part of the problem. Another explanation might be that both teams underestimated their opponents. I think 2 years ago noone really expected anything from Poland, so maybe your players felt the pressure now.

I agree, shocking how much plastic garbage german fans produced. Germany being eliminated is better for the future of planet earth. African people never produce such huge amounts of garbage.

I am sorry to say that, but in my opinion your team even on paper isn't better than Japan or Senegal, not to mention Colombia. With the german team there were tons of problems, even the friendly matches looked dreadful. In the end there were just too many problems to compensate: - Löw's dreadful decisions - The whole Gündogan/Özil situation - Too many injured/out of form players - Too much pressure/too little "hunger" In the end this is certainly disappointing for Germany, but since 1990 Germany won 2 world cups, which no other nation than Brazil did, so as a german fan you can't ask for more. It's sad, but after the tournament noone really cares whether you lost in group stage or semifinal, only the title counts for german fans.

Now all our favorite teams are gone. First nigeria, now Germany, what's left for us to enjoy at this world cup? Should we consider France an african team and cheer for them instead?

Yes, basically the same in every match. On the one hand it's strange that they didn't even try, on the other hand teams like Spain or France also look completely gassed out so far.

He has to, although he just renewed his contract until 2022. He is the first german coach to ever be eliminated in group stage of a world cup, there is no excuse. Clearly he couldn't reach the players anymore.

Brazil might have been very well a more difficult opponent for Sweden than Switzerland (if they make it), but i still wouldn't call them easy. I think at best 2 swedish players (Forsberg and Lindelöf) would make the swiss team. Switzerland clearly has more individual quality. Maybe some swedish player will fake an injury, so that Ibrahimovic can be nominated?

Yet you felt the need to reply immediately and even with actual text and not a smiley? What happened to you?

It wasn't Germany or Sweden, but Germany or Mexico. Mexico beat Germany fair and square, so they deserved it. Sweden won 2 matches and lost the 3rd one in the last minute, so despite their rather ugly style of play, they have to be considered the deserving winner in this group.

How is Switzerland rather easy? (I hope that they make it and not Serbia) For me both teams of this group should be eliminated in the next round. In the end none of those teams should play a major role during the rest of the tournament.

Me too ...

Whenever heywoodu doesn't know what to reply, he just reacts with a smiley ... cute. On the other hand i don't remember the last time he actually wrote about sport on here, so maybe he forgot how to discuss. At least now i know everything about his eating habits and those of his BRAZILIAN girlfriend ...

1) I think you are overestimating my influence 2) If that's the case, then those people would be even more pathetic. a) How can you base your feelings towards a whole country (80 mio people) on your feeling towards 1 person. b) Possibly those people have no problem with Germany, but act that way to go on someone elses nerves (no need to name names ...), but then those people most lead a sad life indeed, if they have nothing else to do than to annoy other people.

I don't think that Germany deserved to lose, they were the better team, but overall Sweden and Mexico deserved it more to advance, so there is some justice to the final group standing. This result again shows how special Real's 3-peat was. Not being able to defend your title basically never is about quality, it's about mentality and most teams don't have it, while Real apparently has tons of it.

Italy doesn't count anyway, their 2 first world cups were a joke. Let's hope for a first time winner in Belgium.
