    That was the most absurd penalty shoot out that I can ever think of. All of those nerves, and whatever the eff Zaza was thinking. As it turns out I've located his heat map...





    Really glad Germany won obviously. Italy or France (assuming they don't piss the bed) in the final would have been awful. I would have been all-in on pulling for the winner of Portugal/Wales in the final if that were the case.

    Zaza best penalty kicker specialist ever, man of the century, MVP extraordinary

    Well, there was that Brazil one is... hm, I forget, the Copa América maybe? Everyone kept slipping and the penalty spot was just a piece of mud. Atleast I think Brazil was involed, eh.

    I totally saw Özil's miss coming from a mile away. What's really important though: does anyone have any idea if Zaza normally takes his spot kicks in that ridiculous fashion?

    Speaking of the French, how the hell is Giroud supposed to win the golden boot what with Deschamps freaking subbing him off all the time!? He totally had four or five in him tonight. ((((((((

    Michael Ballack, he scores free-kicks.
    He's got black hair, and he's german.
    Michael Ballack, trains in paddocks.
    in his spare time, HE FARMS HADDOCKS!
    Watch me play Super C, guys!!

    Apparently so... (never had the opportunity to use that smiley before)

    Spoiler warning:



    Would rather watch this sort of penalty shoot out.

    Tsk, that was a matter of goal average, minor thing. Ok, it was in Euros since 2000. Not the kind of thing I try to memorize

    (Benzema>)Griezmann>>>Giroud. Thats's why

    Hard luck Wales. They will return home as heroes, and deservedly so.

    Totally, heroes is what they are. Historic performance regardless of the result today. It's impressive what a group of people can do when they believe in what they are doing. I hope this gives them enough motivation to go even further and qualify for the final phase of the World Cup. That would be most awesome.

    And congrats to Portugal, their experience was key today. And yet another final for Cristiano, would be impressive to win the Champions League and the Eurocup the same year being decisive for both, his club and his national team.

    In other news, Messi was handed 21 month prison sentence for tax fraud today. Another kind of hero, I guess

    If you want to dodge taxes, do so in Spain apparently.

    Congrats to Portugal.
