Yes and I didn't intend make a critic to the German player, on the contrary... I was just surprise by the victory's celebration of the Spanish player. To me , it's appeared excessive and a bit offensive for the German player interviewee, but probably it's just me...
I understand what you mean
Ultimately , it must know to loose but it must know also to win and so... Go Holland Go!!

No no, I wasnt thinking you wanted to critic him. And even if you wanted, you have every right to do so. The intention of my question was that I am always interested in what image our country or our players have in other countries, thats all. So whats the german players image? Are they bull-headed?

Bull-headed...uhm no. Here in Italy German player are respected like no other; their mentality, the strenght , the will to fight till the last second , the fortitude....they don't simulate. From the critics to the common people, here in Italy, there is just admiration for the German player. I don't exaggerate. After them, there are the English( one commune thought is " Football was created by English people")and Holland player. But the German are always taken like example for their will to fight until the end.

Thanks, thats interesting. Wouldnt have thought that the italian people respect the german players so much. I always thought they loved their own players most and nobody else.

Of course their players come first, but after they get eliminated they choose the good ones.

That octopus it better get wrong the final winner or should be thrown to the sharks.
They'll never stop

No no, I assure it to you, also among Ultras , I'm from Turin ...a Juventus supporter , there is a lot of respect for team like Manchester, Bayern , Barcellona , Real Madrid. Consider that there are been tragedy like Heysel Stadium (39 fans died) who marked history in a terrible way, consider that there were thousand of Italian immigrant who worked in nation like Germany and so match like Germany-Italy, in 2006 , assume a particular and special importance, but those are History facts that go beyond our talk.
