IT's Finally Over.. World Cup 2006 Germany...

After a month long.. with 32 teams 64 games played.. it is time to bid farewell to Germany and hoping for the next World Cup in South Africa..

so let me wrapped it up since the BIG THING has finally over...

yes.. this has been a wonderful one month experience.. seen some good games and some lousy or rather worst international football...

i personally was impressed.. very much impressed by the young Germans.. and the Argentines.. the Italians... and 'impressed' by the British..

so much so.. there had been bad moments like christiano instigated the referee to send Rooney off the pitch and Zidane's head butt against Materazzi..

so it is part of the GAME... Part of the World Cup.. for those misfortunated team n players.. try in the next WOrld Cup.. or make ur revenge in the coming Euro 2008.

like lets hope the Orange can crush the Nando's koks.. or probably the 3 Lions can do that.. or Rooster make their revenge against the Azzuris.. or so may the German Falcons finally beat the Azzuris...

all the unpleasant moments may it be left aside n be forgotten n may the sweet memories n disappointment me made to encouragement n strength for the next BIG GAME..

to wind up.. i would like to congratulate my favourite international team..Germany. for being so magnificiently wonderful.. apart from cliching 3rd place.. they displayed wonderful games and tactics.. n wow-ed the whole world.. changing our perspective about how germans play their football.. i would also like to congratulate Lucas Podolski and Miroslav Klose for being awarded with Best YOung Player and Golden Boot award respectively.. Players like Jen Lehmann, Philip Lahm, Michael Ballack and again Klose for being voted as part of the All-Star Team.. Congratulation to the German team as a whole.. yes.. u guys are part of the ppl's champion.. :)

Pizza Hut Malaysia.. are u trying to be Racist?

there's a rumours in Malaysia that Pizza Hut is doing some shitty survey on race and their preferred orders... so they ended up having an extra column on their Food Order Form..' race'.. i supposed C is for chinese and I is for indian.. n if they dont mark on ur form probably u r ..ehmm.. of the majority race..

rumours said that the waiter or waiteress will marked ur race in that particular column while taking your orders.. i was also rumoured that if u have a C or I u supposedly have to pay the 10% service tax and 5% gov tax.. as part of the survey goes... if u dont have a marking .. maybe u dont need to pay..

so one fine day one of my friend visited Pizza Hut outlet... n true enough as in the pic.. his order form was marked C... and my friend called up the manager n the manager did reply him that it was for survey purpose.. ok fine.. so he paid his taxes of RM 5.40 for his RM 90 ++ bill... another friend got into Pizza Hut n had his marked as I and paid RM 10 ++ for his RM 80 ++ bill... weird.. ok.. reasonable doubt.. the money register maybe malfunction.. n calculated the bill wrongly...

so my point or concern is .. isnt it there;s a better way of doing survey.?? a more open n transparent way? not by marking C or I or none ... ??? i mean most diners would be alright to do any survey while waiting for the food to be served... why do Pizza Hut need to be so secretive? or is their money register machine is malfunction due to the survey markings?

so i plead Pizza Hut.. pls clarify.. n by mistake if u guys undertaking such nonsense procedures of doing survey.. pls pls... i plead u ppl.. stop it.. it just make u look really awful.. and ppl like me may start to query... IS PIZZA HUT a RACIST FOOD OUTLET?

Devasted German Falcons.. Delighted Azzuris

hours ago i had watched one of the best (i would say top 3 best match) 2006 World Cup match... it was between the Germans (host) and Italians... it is also the semi-finals match.. the winner will go ahead n try to win the title.. playing against the team which will emerge victorious later tonight... while the loser will be fighting the 3rd spot of the tournament...

it was wonderful... both team played well.. both team showed their determination.. however.. the Azzzuris are better... continuing their record of being unbeaten by the Germans..

The ended with 90 minutes without goal and was continued in Extra time.. in the end.. the Azzuris broke the jinx and scored 2 fantastic goals sealing the game in the dying 2 minutes..

nothing much to comment bout the Italians.. they just played better than the GErmans did... however that doesnt mean the Germans played really badly.. the keeper n defence did a job job last night.. until their tired legs can't match the fresh footed Italian players.. i must also say that the GErmans had been really lucky in a few occasions that could ve sealed the game earlier..

ok.. the Germans.. y they lost.. from my point of view... German wasnt playing like they supposed to in attacking.. penetration was as good as in the previous game.. they were holding back.. tired defence against fresh footed players.. (who scored those goals)...

Overall they played well... it was an amazing for both sides... u must watched to be convinced that the Germans did very well to lose... except for the attacking part...

so applause for the Azzuris.. and the German Falcons need not ashamed.... cheers Deutsher... !!!

One Happy Ending and 2 Big Disappointment..!!!

Goooo..... Deutshland.. !!!! it was an amazing night for me as a German football fan... they are through to the Semi Final of the World Cup 2006... the Germans beat the Argentines 4-2 in penalty shoot out after an amazing 1-1 draw comeback by the GErmans...

Germany was playing pretty ugly in the first half.. it was Argentina's first 45 mins.. the Argies played better.. hold up the game better.. paced out Germans player.. n managed to score the first goal.. German player look lost.. n blew a way a few chances.. like Ballack's header..

in the second half.. probably a good inspirational speech and reinforced in tactics.. the Germans played better n better.. they tried even harder.. they managed to get into their own pace.. they managed to hold the Argies better... until i believed what had murdered the Argies... 'subsitution'.. Argies' coach.. Pekerman had made some substitution in the second half.. which was pretty smart but not the last... the last substitution was not bringing in Messi.. the phenomenal young star of Argentina.. the next Maraddona.. i mean bringing in Messi into the field would have secure the 1 - 0 lead for the ARgies.. but.. Pekerman played a more conservative game.. he left Messi on the bench..

probably that .. a good chance for the Germans.. n the 'never say die' spirit demonstrated by the Germans resulted to an amazing come back.. Ballack took a cross only to back-head by Borowski where the ball fell into position for Miroslav Klose to head in the important equalizing goal..

imagine this.. i was cheering my heart out in a mamak restaurant filled with Argentina fans.. hehehe.. luckily i'm still in one piece.. hahaha..

well.. the game gone into extra time n resulted in a draw.. thus the game was took into the Penalty shoot out.. Jen Lehman... the hero.. n dubbed as the new TITAN of Germany.. saved 2 out of 4 tries by the ARgentinians... while the Germans scored 4 out of 4 to win 'the best of 5' penalty shoot out..

what an amazing night.. however there are some comments n incidents that night that negatively thrown to the Germans.. but hey... they deserved the victory as well as the Argies.. both played their hearts out.. n both put in the passions n determinations.. but.. luck wasnt with the ARgies that night.. n GERMANY walked away as the winner.. so i must say good luck GErmany against Italy, and Argies.. u dont have to be ashamed of urselves as u played an amazing game... well done for both teams..

ok.. as for the disappointments... England and Brazil are out of the World Cup as defeated by Portugal and France respectively.. to keep it short.. luck was not with England who finally play well and France deserved the win... Brazil... aih.. what the hell.. played not to their standard...

so.. this will bring us to the semis with Germany Vs. Italy and Protugal Vs. France.. who will win??? i would just say.. may the best team Wins the game... but of course.. my heart n support will go for Germany... !!!!
