Noo! Why Germany did you have a bad day yesterday?

Too many silly mistakes and too unlucky to score yourselves. For the record I think an Italian referee probably wasn't the best idea, but the penalty was a penalty. I wanted the final to be Belgium-Germany. If not I hoped for Italy. Well, at least Spain isn't a finalist. Now I hope Portugal wins, I don't like France.

What has the nationality of the ref got to do with players making mistakes? Do you think for some reason him having zero control over his own national team losing on penalties means he will be unfairly bias against the team that beat them? Question his integrity and that of the profession as a whole?

Just like Spurs fans did with a ref end of last season thinking a ref might be bias against them in a match they should easily have won when in the end they came 3rd in a 2 horse race? 



Hmm, pie.
