Yesterday’s wars are today’s football games. Nationalism and passion boils over when football teams battle for the national pride. Although I don’t like football very much I prefer this form of nationalism over wars and other bloody conflicts.
Today is a tragedy in the making: either Germany or Austria will be kicked out of the tournament. In both cases a national disaster.
Since neither nation likes each other very much a war of words already started last week when it was clear that the German team was in deep trouble after it’s shitty game against Croatia.

Now the mighty German Fußball Nation has to win against tiny Austria - which has been not bad so far in this tournament.
Personally: I don’t care! May the best team win - although I would love to see Austria win, which would result in the bigger tragedy. I think that would be much more entertaining …
So far I think Oranje is the best team - they have played the best games so far and played the most convincing football.
