But in the end that is exactly the way our society works. As long as you deliver, you are the HERO until a mishap, you suddenly become the BOO-MAN. Am sure the likes of Löw and Schweinsteiger know this very well and will well put this quickly behind them before one can say Jack Robinson. The press needs this “kick” so they can stay in the limelight and let’s face it, we all the need someone to point fingers to that Germany is not European Champions this year. Seriously, the German team played very well considering all the problems this team had with their first eleven players, coupled with an Italian referee, who was so blatantly PARTIAL. The French could only penetrate a well manned defence unfortunately after Boateng left the game. That shows what a very strong, coherent team Germany Löw put together. Not that I wish France this trophy, but Portugal isn’t my first choice as well; the only team that didn’t win any agame in the qualifying rounds:). But on a friendly note, I think it would do our egos well, if France that sent us out the championship, eventually wins.
