Its rather sad to watch three great teams England, Argentina and my personal dahlings Brazil, get outta the world cup. Its very sad. And to top it all up, the South Americans are nowhere in the picture now. And this is the first time in over two decades that a South American team will not be part of the final four. Europeans are shining this time.
I watched the Germany - Argentina match at the Trident, Gurgaon with some great whisky, mouth watering snacks and some real cool looking marine engineers! And one of them was a Brazilian, who would have killed himself, had Argentina won that match. Thank God! He did not die on us! But yeah, penalty shoot outs was awesome. But suddenly I felt as though Argentina had the worst goalie ever!
Anyway, that over, over to the England Portugal match. Wow..this was something I really loved watching. A red card, high voltage penalty shoot outs, Beckham's injury. It was a match very well played, and it was tough to take a side. I was kinda ok with anyone winning here. But yeah, I had to take a side, and I chose England. They lost ultimately. And what a way to exit the captaincy, Beckham actually stepped down as England skipper!
Now thats done. Saturday night was a disaster! It was a long long night for me especially. I was all geared up to watch the Brazil France match post mid night. I had a few friends over, ordered some kebabs, a few drinks, and it was a party! A party for what??? To see Brazil lose.
In my personal opinion, it was an excellent match. But I lost the bet. Thats what I can say. Lets look forward to an all-European semis now. Let me go with the Germans now...hmmm...anyone here???
