Football
 

I was in the garden a while ago and suddenly most of my neighbours disappeared. And so did my daughter.The reason? A football match on the telly.So please tell me, what's so attractive about a bunch of guys running after a ball? Unless one of them is Beckham, of course.:love:

I didn't see the match but I'm proud to announce that:


Spain beat Germany in Euro final

Spain claimed their first major title in 44 years with a 1-0 win over Germany in Sunday's European Championship final in Vienna. Fernando Torres scored the only goal of the game, sliding the ball past German keeper Jens Lehmann after 33 minutes. full story

Now let's hope the world will go back to normal, because the street is still deserted, and so is the forum...

You beat me to it, Gemma. I watched the match (though I promised not to) and I wanted to be the one to announce the well deserved victory.:applause:
We just popped a bottle of my husband´s favourite champagne...:D:D

I didn't watched the match (I'm a stiff intellectual) but I knew when the only goal was achieved (my neighbours made such a noise... and didn't stopped yet).
I hope this sarampión passed by as soon as possible. Once in twenty four years is not too much. I'll get over it.

Do you know how to say sarampión in English?
A. mumps
B. measles
C. chicken-pox

....:rolleyes:

Once in forty-four years... If you stick around for another forty-four years, you might actually come to love football, but you´ll need to loosen up a bit.:D

Congrats to the Spaniards on the win and the title! :soccer:

By the way, I would call it a soccer game, not a football match. :)

Correct and colourful.You deserve :star::star::star:.

My liitle girl was told the same thing, she called me this morning asking if she´s a spaniard now:D, and that since she didn´t play, she told her friend that the congratulations should be for the footballers who actually played...
I´ll say thank you very much, David, on behalf of Spain, since the spaniards HERE are somewhat ...:thinking:, unimpressed by the feat.:D:D

I would say, and I think Alfonso will agree with me, totally unimpressed.My :pelota: is better than:soccer:. Give me a beach ball any day!

La gente gastan o malgastan damasiado tiempo mirando a un grupo de
hombres chabacanos tirando bolas, pateando bolas, brincando, escupiendo, rascandose,peleando, tomando esteriodes y ganando millones.

You can say that again!(I love men who don't like football, and if you look like George Clooney, well, then you are perfect...)

¡De acuerdo, de acuerdo! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
Nunca he visto ni un partido entero en la vida, y no me falta nada.

Más bien me gustan los deportes de una sola persona, como la natación, o aquellos en que se juegan individuos, uno contra uno, uno contra dos, o dobles contra dobles, como el raquetból (parecido a squash para aquellos en el otro lado del charco).

Bien, otro chico guay al que no le gusta el fútbol. ¿Tú también te pareces a George Clooney?

Hey, won Spain, in the Futboll, congrutalations all the people of spain.

Ni una jota, pero a mi esposa y a mi mamá soy sapo guapo.

It´s cute meeting guys who are not crazy about football, and cute also seeing gals who do love the game. I´m one of them, though I don´t usually watch the games live( not if I can help it).:shh:

Aunque no soy muy futbolero, el magnífico juego desarrollado por España en esta Eurocopa ha hecho que este fin de semana no pudiese acercarme a Tomísimo al estar pendiente del partido y ahora tengo 30 hilos sin leer.
Magnífico partido de España y mi reconocimiento a los alemanes, que se defendieron como jabatos y supieron perder con dignidad.
A mi no me gsuta seguir un deporte, se me ahce aburrido, pero los grandes eventos me gusta seguirlos (finales NBA, Eurocopa, Champions League de balonmano, Juegos olímpicos,.. etc). Una vez hasta ví la Ryder CUP de golf, y eso que no me gusta el golf :D
Ver a jugadores al máximo nivel siempre es interesante, y aunque haya gente que piense que no, en algunos momentos es simplemente arte. En otros momentos son simplemente idiotas sobrevalorados.
Saludos :D
