The Germans score late! Technical director Oliver Bierhoff is leaving the DFB, finally - at least four years and two messed up tournaments too late, but after 18 years he finally, finally leaves!

Great match the one between Morocco and Spain.

I can't say if it's Morocco who is playing good or if it's Spain who is not so good as many say they are.

It's positive-as long you aren't from Spain that is.

Portugal were excellent last night and must now be a serious contender for the competition.

Spot the difference:

The Spanish coach was kicked.

The German coach is allowed to stay. The DFB announces his utmost trust into him.



No alternatives, okay. Then nevertheless try a new shot and risk a miss. After such deasaster, one cannot continue just as if nothing has happened. The coach ist responsible for how he sets up his team! Of course he is! He is the coach.

I predict: in two years at the European Cup in Germany, the German team will again "underperform". Because nothing changes at the DFB.

For me it seems like Germany has gone down the drain after Miroslav Klose and some other player left after 2014 World Cup.
They have Müller and some other playing in the offensive-Maybe it's me who lack knowledge. It was a pleasure to see Miroslav Klose in action.

Made a search and Müller was the German with highest goal score in 2014.
Must have remembered very wrong.

Germany will come good again but drastic and innovative measures will be needed.

... since 2016. and 2018. and 2020. like done back then, it will be done 2022. And the result in 2024 will be accordingly.



Mind you, the DFB said about the trainer who is responsible for this latest mess that he has their unlimited trust. And like yearsd they say that "we have plenty of quality". It just doe snot show in results.



And Flick? Bitterly cries about his buddy Bierhoff - another one of these special guys I am so very very fond of having been shown to the door - two tournaments and several years too late.



Of the last ten tournament matches, Germany has won just three. But the crew "has all opur trust". And it has "plenty of quality".


It goes like this since years now! Reminds damn well of our German politics. The parallels are stunning.

The team from Croatia did something wrong-Instead of rushing to give the goalkeeper a hug-They should instead have given this Brazilian player a hug.

It was him who missed the goal.
