So our boys lost a thriller in S.Korea against the Germans, who showed why they’ve won the Cup 3 times. And in all honesty I’m not that mad/sad. I mean we played a good game, showed we’ve come a long way, and hopefully garnered some more respect from the International Community.

I just wish that damned accidental hand-ball had been called wrong..or that the guy wasn’t even there, because that was a goal if he hadn’t been right there. And the weird thing is that normally there isn’t a defender on the far post, there’s one on the near post to cover curls in while the goalie normally covers the far post himself.

But we played a damned good tournament and our boys can go home knowing they played their hearts out and also that hopefully they got a lot more people onto the joy that is football [the real football].
