    Just got home there to watch the game, so I have missed the first 60minutes.

    So what have I missed?

    Are Italy playing good or are Germany just unlucky?

    What was Balotelli's goals like?
    His second was a great goal

    That was a well struck free kick. Buffon did what he had to.

    The Italians more than deserve their place in the final based on their performances so far.

    Imagine Dunphy updating his FIFA 12 players stats . .

    Germany team -
    • Average ratings for players before this game 85
    • Average ratings for players at half time 65
    • Average ratings for players if they somehow get back in and win 99
    • Average ratings for players if they lose 39
    And as for Ronaldo
    • Start of season for Madrid - 80 (doesnt do it in big games)
    • End of season for Madrid - 90 (did it in some big games)
    • Start of tournament - 82 (doesnt do it for Portugal)
    • Before Spain game - 91 (Portugals best player)
    • After spain game - 76 (goes missing when they need him most!)

    That was one of the strangest refereeing decisions I've seen.

    Motta took him down really late- got a free. :confused:

    No reason to put that much power behind the ball back from Lahm.

    Claims that the panel are obsessed with him seems like projection to me as nobody from RTE has mentioned him and he has been mentioned constantly in here.

    Lads, Ronaldo isn't playing. Lets just discuss this game shall we? It's quite a good one.

    It definitely makes it funny that before the tournament lots of Irish fans thought Italy weren't that good and we could get something out of that game.

    If they scored now, I'd fancy them to get a second but it needs to come in the next couple of minutes. Doesn't look like it will.

    Much as I hate lazy football racial stereotypes, Italian teams really do know how to defend.
