I start supporting the german team if they reach the half final... I think they will stopped in the quarter final... Maybe the next round is the last...
very optimistic there Bere? 
NEVER write off Germany. they are a tourament team.
if they stay fit, and no suspensions, they surely have a great chance. home crowd advantage usually counts.
There is a big chance for Germany in this competion. But I think, the thing with the tournament team is a legend, which is cultivated by the german media and I can't understand, that this story is told now all over the world. For Example wasn't Germany's 3:2 Win over England at the WM 1970 a strength of the German Team. It was very stupid from the english coach to take the both best english players from the field after the 2:0 Lead by England to preserve them for a game, that should not take place for England.
