Football - The Crazy Game
What was that? I vacillate between being bemused, amazed and a little bit disappointed.
A pretty boring match, up until the 119th minute. And then! Crazy. And such bad luck for Croatia. I think they deserved to win for playing better, but Turkey showed great spirit and tenacity.
Oh well. I liked how Slaven Bilic said afterwards "This is why football is the best game in the world, something like this can happen."
(I paraphrased a little.)
I also watched the Blumentopf recap of Germany's match against Portugal, and now I can't stop grinning (much like when I remember the last World Cup and the "Sommertraum"). "Wir lieben dieses Spiel" indeed!
