When Italy scored....our whole City just went Nuts. You could here fireworks being shot off downtown (no one here likes Germany..shhh..and they were very, very, happy when they did not win). Everyone is also sure that had the game gone into Penatly Kicking, for sure Germany would have won....and that the Italians knew that and knew this was their only chance. It was one of the best games of the whole World Cup thing....although...I really don't like soccer all that much...But what a History Maker that sucker was last night!!!!!
same here, few people were rooting for germany. I happened to be out that night walking past the biggest italian ice cream place in Vienna. the corner was full of soccer fans/hooligans. italian flags everywhere. they blocked the street (busy street, 1st district) and made all cars stop, yelled like mad and hit the hood of the cars with their hands...no damage as far as I saw though. I was just waiting for the moment a car with a german licence plate would come through, but that never happened LOLthe city was packed with cheering soccer fans after that, people got wasted everywhere in the streets. Soccer fans gone wild!!!
don´t shoot me...
....I am one of the few Austrians who hasn´t watched one single game although everybody is watching everything. I have no idea who is playing against who, and my dad just informed me the final game is today, I would have not known that. whenever there´s something about soccer on TV I switch the channel ASAP. I am just annoyed...thank god it´s over soon
