OMG!!! How could you miss out Messi?!!! How? How???!!! Sacrilege!! He's the new Maradona!!
*puts up the flag of Germany*
*stands at the bleachers*
*waves black, red & yellow ribboned pom-poms*
wenn Deutschland gewinnt, ich erhalte 1 freies gefrorenes latte..
in engrish: if german wins, i get 1 free iced latte..
Grrrrrr....!!!
well in my point of view, Messi is not a new Maradona but he is so talented. As before, there are also lot of others player which is also assume to be the new Maradona for example Pablo Aimar and Diego Simeone.
If i take the penalty kick i will calmly placing the ball rather then burst it hard as it will be your another nightmare for whole of your lifes.
It is advantage for Germany as they played on their own soil ground but their advantage no longer works when they face the invicible Italy in semi final.
holla italia
With hindsight, i wish the penalty shoot-out were more 'balanced.'
No very hard was it, the penalty kick... *yay for klinsmann*
BTW, you have been tagged! :)
LB: This my dear was not done on purpose but perhaps the others had more exprience under their hat. Needless to say, the key players need not necessary be the new Maradonna or even a Maradonna. Then again, they were not nominated by me. Wakakkaka... This was extracted from FIFA World Cup's official website.
Errr... on a separate note, Portugal and Germany are going to the semi. And where is England? Wakkakkakaka.... They'll have to wait 2010 in Africa. *grin*
May: *shakes red black yellow pom pom and doing the bootay dance*
Sengkor: Wakakakakka... so I heard. Don't forget to make it a GRANDE size. Wakakakakka.... Ve vill zupport.
Lil' Joy: I feel you pain... Wakakakka....
Guruh Roy: We shall all see tomorrow when Germany & Italy meet up next. We shall all see.... *wink*
Fishtail: We all would love to see that now don't we but only in a perfectly balanced world *wink*
ka..t: I'm sure they had given it their all but there is no way those balls could pass "Hand of God" Lehmann. *grin*
Klinsmann may have coached them but it was Lehmann that saved the team with his magical hands. We hope to see more of that action in the semi *wink* *fingers crossed*
