I'm sorry, Lucia. I know that it's small consolation; however, the tying goal--the "own goal" was going in anyway whether your defende had touched it or not (he really only touched it by a hair--and it was a beautiful, even if lucky, shot.) What I guess I'm trying to say is that it wasn't the tying goal, but the winning goal that hurts, because it was going to be tied anyway. So, <i>NOW</i> for whom to we root? I like the fact that Germany is such a young team, but I find it hard to root for them. -- The JAGged Pack

In reply to: Postrider, who will NOT, I repeat NOT get into any airplane that Harm is flying!!!
