San Marino 0 - 13 Germany

Bad luck San Marino, a brave performance undone by 13 quick break-aways by Germany.

I felt San Marino were still in it until the 12th goal went in, that one killed off the game.

Don't forget, there's no easy games in international football.

hahaha (H)

The San Marino players begged Lehmann not to take the penalty - and he gave in. :kader:

Pathetic if you ask me :o
Demolition Derby poor San Marino but I can't understand why they always try to get into any tournament when they just don't have any good players :nape: Embarassing really getting beaten by the big boys time and time again must be really frustrating too :boohoo:

Would you give up a chance to play footie against Ballack, Podolski, Lehmann etc..?

how many did Podolski score? was it 5? surely someone with 2 like Hitzelsperger or Sweinsteiger (SP?) could have taken the penalty.

way to rig goal difference.
lets predict Germany - San Marino now!!

It does not do any favours for the smaller teams to play the big nations, all they ever do is get humiliated. :nape:

yea it hurts to see this kind of humiliation. why not let the smaller nations play among themselves first then have the top teams join the big boys in the main qualifier.

Thats a very good idea actually, which means Uefa will never use it.

The German announcer said that they are actually talking about that.

Podolski's dangerously overrated... and todays goals will only inflate his goal tally and make him even more overrated. Thats all

AMEN :Bow:

The entire Azurri team is overrated mate. Ah got Govou?

Agree, at the moment I dont see anything really special with him but he is young and at a good team so maybe it will change in a season or two but for now just an average player.

The Germans weren't even glad after scoring goals :) Only Schweinsteiger smiled after scoring from the free kick.

imagine brazil or argentina playing vs san marino.. 84-0 lol

Haha

germany beat argentina in the world cup.
so they wouldnt score more than 10 against san marino.
end of topic.
amen.

No one's saying (at least I hope so) Podolski is wordclass like his partner upfront Klose. He's yet to play a season consistently on a high level. The fact that he's already moved to a big club shows that he doesn't fear competition, in fact he's very ambitious.
I wouldn't call him average though. 20 goals in 35 appearences for the nt at the age of 21 speak for themselves.

He's definitely one of the biggest prospects in world football, that can't be denied.

:jap:

Germany was so lucky, the result could've easily be the other way around.










Just joking guys, good job. ;)

Lolzer.

I doonno if this has been mentioned yet but, San Marino apparently have only ONE professional player who plays in the Italian 3rd division. Not a bad result for a bunch of amateurs against the 3rd place team in the WC

Funny how only Italy fans are complaining about Podolski.. Honestly I'd take him over Luca Toni, Inzaghi, Gilardino or Iaquinta any day.

Erm, football doesn't work like that.

That's exactly what i meant, and i was given for dumb bu the 'smartest' fvck on the forum. :ewan:


As far as calling the result 'not bad at all' well thats being a little too nice, i recon is a new european record for goals conceded at home so yeah it is a horrendous result.

imagine Germany vs San Marino at home :boohoo: :kader: :hump: :nape:

Erm, football doesn't work like that.


This Manc said it to someone else so it's worthless to repeat mate. :)

Germany won vs Argentina but HOW ??

Don't tell me Germans are better then Argentinians..simply false..

France lost to Italy.. and now they beat them 3-1 :boohoo:

Funny how only Italy fans are complaining about Podolski.. Honestly I'd take him over Luca Toni, Inzaghi, Gilardino or Iaquinta any day.

Take it easy now, Podolski can get there but not there yet. Toni has been a goal scoring machine for two seasons now and he has done this at teams that are not so dominate in the league ( Palermo and Fiorentina ). Inzaghi...used to be really good and he still is, scored today. Gilardino, dont know what happened to him but he was a machine at Parma. Iaquinta, well he is not so great. TBH He kind of reminds me of Torres...

Don't tell me Germans are better then Argentinians..simply false..

And don't tell me the Argentinians are better then the Germans, football doesn't work like that, when you have equal, or closely equal skilled teams it is anyones game, so Brazil could beat Germany, then Germany could beat Brazil. But as for San Marino, it wasn't there day, even if they are just one of those minnow teams that never improve. and for Podolski, he is getting in-form, and when he is in-form he deserves the hype he gets, but he is young and inconsisent, but will improve, and I think by the end of his career he will be as successful, if not more successful then Gerd Müller, Jürgen Klinsmann, or Rudi Völler, I hope.

Don't tell me Germans are better then Argentinians..simply false..

I'd say both teams are at the same level although Germany performed way better at the last World Cups.

TBH He kind of reminds me of Torres...
That's not necessarily a good thing. :(

Nah, he's not up there yet. At the moment Klose easily tops all of those guys anyway.

yea klose is one of the best strikers if not best at the moment. he has a high work rate and he is also creative when it comes to play making. i guess that makes him a centre forward?

I wish if they both chose to play for Poland :(

They probabaly wouldnt have developed to be so great playing in poland. the bundesliga and germany have shaped them into what they are now. The polish might disagree with this. :jambo:

That's not necessarily a good thing. :(


Nah, he's not up there yet. At the moment Klose easily tops all of those guys anyway.

:D, indeed it is not a good thing. Podolski is young and has the right body shape for a striker so he could turn about to be very good but for now kind of reminds of Torres.

Klose is really a top class striker, I dont consider him a forward eventhough he can set up his partner/does offer his team more than just the regular striker would. Gol tv is starting to show German games from now on and I am starting to really see how good he is.

i think klose could fit into just about any team in the world at the moment
