Would be great if the Swiss/Ukraine win

Would be great if Denmark won, after the whole Erikssen incident.

Am not into soccer, but this came across my WhatsApp feed:

 

The reason Germany lost is: 

 

Some guy was caught exclaiming:  "diesmal ist der Becher unser"

Translation:  "Ee salaa Cup namde"


Germany has won many titles including 3 Euros iirc … PS let’s not forget the 4 world cups

Yeahhhhh ... let's not overthink this.  

 

@zen

Added in edit:  Actually, let's over think this.  Maybe they won all those titles because, in the entire history of German sports, no one had exclaimed "Ee salaa cup namde" in German.  The moment someone uttered it, the curse kicked in.

ITA go through to the SF to meet ESP ... BEL had its moments but Lukaku was a let down as he got 2 relatively easy scoring opportunities which in a big game you would expect at least one to be converted

Belgium are overrated. Ranked no 1 but can't win any big tournaments.

Does not help when you have a lumbering donkey for a striker. Never rated them, just don't have the pedigree to win anything.

 

Zlatan was right, Lukaku's voodoo didn't work tonight

Italy is amazing their midfield and fwd is so strong and so much of sync in their passing. They ll defeat Spain as well if Spain doesn't execute their useless passing game in goals.

Any one except Italy should be fine. 

As a patriotic Indian, who firmly believes in the post modern Indian ethos of secularism, tolerance, corruption, dynastyvaad/ shahi gharanas and nepotism, I will root for Italy. Just to show my support to the first among equals RaGa and SoGa.

 

I don't really watch football, its a very low IQ game, but I want Italy to win for the sake of India.

Crazy schedule. Last time we had so many events was in 2018 when FIFA WC was the centre of attraction. But honestly (late) June-(early) Sep 2021 is even more packed. Must pick and choose events to follow.

Dope OP, I remember reading that post as a lurker (joined ICF only in Jan 2013). Consistently funny/witty for over a decade :hatsoff:

 

IIRC another veteran @maniac too had some hilarious rants about football, club football and its impact on Indian urban youth.
