England- Germany What happened?

The thing is England believe there own hype and are massively over rated. Did you see Germeny's first goal, crikey absolute basic defending. the whole England side are scum.

I have no idea i am a bit shell shocked. England played terrible. How when trailing 4 - 1 can England bring on Emile Heskey. Why ?

Hi Sarah! All your reasons appear logical and I would like to add one - it was not England's day, the luck was not in their favor, the luck was with German team, so they won. German, I believe, has nonetheless, a very competitive team.

Germany taught England a lesson in football today. I think Joachim Loew goes one level up in my books. I thought he did not have the technical nous to tackle Fabio Capello, but he proved me wrong. He setup his team to run their way to victory with pace and showed up the slower English players, who at times looked like they could not cope with the pace. Of course, there was the disallowed goal and the shots that came back off the bar, but make no mistake about it, Germany would still have won the match!! Fantastic match and great football by the germans. Cheers! Ram

I think England and Germany are similar team and they are in the similar level. However, there is an interesting fact. That is it seems that England usually wins in the less important matches. And Germany usually wins in the important matches. I love China

once england beat germany 5-1 just think it was a pay back we cant tell theyll be able to beat england always but in the match i felt rooney was lazy lol he was not sprinting at all as if he lost interest to play and then in the late game germany was toying with england by just passing the ball here and there WE CANT SAY WHAT MAY HAPPEN

Hello, Sarahruthbeth. Germany don't always beat England - we have the advantage of two world wars and one world cup, after all. The problem was, England believed their own hype. They weren't up to the job. Germany aren't either - they'll go out to Argentina. We have to face the fact that our players are not committed to their country. Treason is still a capital offence in England - perhaps if we behead Rooney as an example, the rest of the team will get their act together in time for the European Championships. Or maybe not.

England out of fifa 2010.. Germany played so nicely.. 4-1 ...wowwwww
