The demise of Germany

[Francis Benali (on loan)]

Tired of this German penalty shoot-out greatness myth. This one is a beaut...two minutes in...

https://youtu.be/UN4dxnEyH2k

Keeper Uwe Kamps can't watch. Olaf Janßen, Jürgen Klinsmann and Wolfram Wuttke can't shoot. Weak.

That after Uli Hoeneß Chris Waddled his kick in the 1976 European Champs final and Antonín Panenka made a wally of Sepp Maier.

Two defeats. That's a worst record that Brazil and Forest. Garbage.

Remind me again, how many major trophies have England won?

And how many major trophies have Germany won?

Ja? Natürlich.

With pleasure. England and Germany have ecah won one World Cup.

And European Championship wins?

And the successes of the former East and former West Germany?

Germany has won one. England would have won this one. Level pegging.

You don't see Jordan Pickford doing Croatian nationalist karaoke.

In the same manner that you don’t see Toni Kroos making sectarian flute-playing gestures, I suspect?

"Neuer is currently on holiday in Croatia with his goalkeeping coach Toni Tapalovic."

Steady on sailor.

Another from the series of German penalty shoot-out ineptitude.

Was that before or after they thumped them at the world cup?

After

Scraped a draw in Switzerland and lying in third behind Ukraine. After avoiding relegation on a technicality, looking a bit out of their depth?

Probably have been better in the long run to have gone down and regrouped.

Gosh, I'd forgotten all about the all-conquering Germans. How is that possible?

Love this German team. Like they’re finally repaying their debt.
