@KloppStyle Congratz for advancing to the knockout stage! Argentina has seemingly a pretty easy bracket. I feel like they will win the next two rounds for sure. :)
We could make it against Paraguay, but our perfomance against Ecuador was laughably bad, so I'm not even sure of that. But the next match would probably be against France, one of the strongest teams if not the strongest in the competition. 😄
Unfortunately, you were right... Paraguay went through.
It's strange that Germany hasn't been able to achieve much in the last three World Cups, despite having so many individually talented players.
I happened to wake up early and caught the penalty shootout by chance. And that penalty by Tah... I can't remember the last time I saw such a poor penalty kick 😅
We basically gotten worse match after match. Too many bad passes and ball losses. So much ball possession and shots on the goal but nothing came from it. I also miss clever players on the defense like Lahm and Hummels. That one goal could have gone through on another day/with a different referee though, but it is what it is. I'm not mad about it. The mentality wasn’t really there, the team play not good enough. I would be surprised if France doesn’t win in the next round, doesn’t really matter if it's Paraguay or us.
