this game just showed the difference between the italian side and the manschaft...but am just proud of the german team, very proud.
the game showed that Lippi is one of the best tactians in the world, his ability to change the mentality from game to with the tactics, the subs, everything was just perfect by marcelo.
Klinsi, although u have to love the guy,he is just way under that level and Rali Rasic( manager that managed australia to 74 wc) put it best, klinsmann is a motivator more than a coach. Klinsi shot himself in the foot in this tournament when he didnt give a chance to left midfielder(either jansen or hitzelperger) as schweni has not been playing his best football since the costa rica game.And Borowski is not a left sided midfielder.
I always said that with a team like italy u cant afford to lose concentration, and u need to make the best decisions regarding the HALF Chances. Germany didnt do that even with the full chances, and it was always going to be almost impossible to create chances against that defence.
Italy deserved it, they better win the final....cuz if they dont it will be a disaster.
Come on Italia
back to germany, future looks bright...with some classy young players could get their breakthrough to give the manager better options on the bench...the likes of kiesseling,deisler(hopefully), Hanke.
Am not getting my hopes up though cuz the last time i did that after a world cup, the team got thrashed by in euro.
if canna doesnt get the best player in the competition then it is a disgrace, and zambro has to be in that team of the tournament, with no doubt
