Beeing in the semi, i thought Sweden would put up better recistance
than they did. When you play a such good German team, everyone must
play at his top, unfortunatelly not everyone did.
Germany won because they where the better team, no question about that.
When the two German forward went so long back to fetch the balls, the
Swedish midfield was running themselves blue in the face. Germanys
passing game was outstanding, and they moved around very good. Sweden
looked a bit tence, and their third pass had a wrong address almost all
the time. I can't help feeling dissapointed. The second and third
German goal looked like give-aways, especially the third. My
congratulations to Germany for a well deserved place in the final.
I also must thank the Swedish team for making this tournament so
special. We have shown that we are a top nation i Europe, and that
this is a team to build the future on. This year we have a semi in
EURO-92, a final in the U-21 competition and a place in Barcelona. This
looks promising for the WC qualification.
Thank you, Sweden!!!

Did anyone catch Jackie Charlton little comment just before kick-off "They wont give a toss...."!!! I am not sure as to whom he was reffering..I switched off by then, he's a boring sod..!! Also I in the CIS v Holland game he couldn't say CIS and kept juggling the letters round CSI or even ICS. What a plonker...!! What team does he manage..??? tony | |||||

Jack Charlton has been embarrassing all the way through this
tournement with his senile comments, one of his classics was during
one of the Holland games he had Van-Breklen(sp) at right back, also
at the beginning of the competition he kept calling it the World Cup.
This senile old fool got paid to sit there and get everyone's name
wrong maybe he should team up with Jimmy Hill, what a couple of
ANALyst's they turned out to be........

He's not as bad as Ron Atkinson who called Brehme "Bremner" all the
way through the Germany/Sweden game.
But agreed... Charlton seems to have lost his marbles,I don't
remember him being as bad as this before.

Jack Charlton has always been very bad at names, so I don't blame senility.
Whilst he was at Newcastle, he could only remember about 3 players
names and called the rest Peter.
