Where do I start? The linesman, for making the worst decision in football history, our overpaid, over shit footballers who played one of the worst games in football history or the 60 millions hearts that got broken yesterday?

During game I think we all went through every emotion possible. Excited, sad, angry, happy, ecstatic, raging, disappointed, heartbroken. If that goal was allowed the game we could have turned the game around but now it doesn't matter. The Germans played a much better game than us, our defence were diabolical, every time the Germans were on the break Terry was somehow upfront and it was left to Upson (who can't actually play football) to save us. We were fucked. For the two minutes when we scored and had the goal disallowed, we were great, but that was for two minutes. So for the other 88 the Germans had us.

The game left us heartbroken, desperate to introduce video replays and hating the Germans even more, but I guess being out the World Cup means we can all go back to our lives, stop pretending to be patriotic and go back to the realisation that we suck at football!

Come on Ghana!!
