I personally feel that Germany were lucky to be in the final, they didn't perform against Turkey and neither did they perform tonight. The only thing that gets me, as in all major championship finals, is that the referee and his assistants, get a medal. I don't mind the assistants, but the ref, like everybody says wasn't that great to be honest. There should have been a red card during that face off, not just to the Spaniard who moved his head forward, but to the German who confronted him in the first place and then had the audacity to make it out that he had been headbutted in the eye!
This is true, Axis definantly bit off more than they could chew by attacking Peal Harbour.
You guys are too hard on the ref at times. Do you have any idea how hard it is to see EVERYTHING? It's impossible. I know this from personal experience. Especailly things like that small head butt. Mostly i see them but sometimes i miss out, and if your linesman doesn't see it either there is nothing you can do about it. That's life, and i think it's pretty imature that people end up blameing the ref for the losses half the time, or just blaming the ref because they feel like it. Sometimes the ref DOES do a terrible job, but mostly he's just trying his best. People wonder why there aren't enough refs for soccer, so much god damned abuse!
