    There hasn't been a goal in 240 minutes of play (England/Italy, Portugal/Spain). I just pray that changes today. I think you'll lose a lot of the casual audience for the final if it's another boring 0-0 (yes, I recognize that there are very good games that finish 0-0 but these last 2 do not qualify).

    I have no idea how Yung-T and AroundTheWorld are going to complete this entire day ending with watching the NBA Draft.

    Man this brings back good memories. I was in Germany in 2008 during the last Euro when Spain played Germany in the finals. Just crazy insane fun atmosphere.

    Confederations cup is not considered a major tournament. It's more of a set of warmup scrimmages than anything.

    Italians looking really impressive early. Nice goal by Mario.

    They do? They scored a goal. But they are being destroyed. Germany is much better. And they should have gotten a penalty, and a red card for pierlo

    What game are you watching? Italy has had as many great looks as Germany. The shots at goal are equal.

    Germany had two very nearly goals. Italy had one shot from long distance which wasn't that dangerous.

    There is a difference between a shot at goal, and a real chance. Germany is much better. But Italy just scored the one goal so far.

    Disagree. Italy had two very nice shots on goal which forced great saves from Neuer before Mario's goal.

    Oh, I get it. When it comes to Germany or Holland it's "skill".

    When it happens for every other team it's "luck"

    You guys sing the same tune.

    Lol trust me I have nothing good to say about the dutch this tournament.

    The germans are just playing great soccer. And they are the better team with more chances this game. I just do not like the counter soccer Italy is playing .

    I do not call it luck, it is a skill. Just not a skill I appreciate as much as the way germany and Spain are playing.

    Wow while I posted that Italy scored a .great goal. It will be very difficult for germany, especially mentally.
