UEFA Euro 2012 Poland-Ukraine: Germans Glowing with Anticipation

[Syt]

If only there was a German word for schadenfreude.

I didn't watch the game, but in Vienna you usually hear when goals are scored against the German team because there's a collective cheer/jeer as if Austria had just won the tournament.

For the finals, I think Spain is the favorite in terms of pre-championship predictions, but considering what Italy has shown so far Spain may prove too defensive.

Btw, funny to see two teams from the group stage meet again, and they are not from the "group of death" either. 

This has really been the championship of surprises. Only if Spain wins it may be seen as somewhat predictable in the end.

Do list the surprises please. Dutch being shite? Well yeah that was one. Polacks and Russians lazy-ing away their chance to proceed from their group? Hardly. Italy defeating Germany? Not one bit.

I think I'll be cheering for Mario and Pirlo in the final.

Me too since I wil be in Italy a week later

Btw, considering this resort I am in right now is full of Krauts, what's German for "Your tears are delicious"?

Well I don't know German but google translate gave me this:

Ich möchte Ihre Füße in meinen Mund stecken

[The Larch]
