Now that the season has ended, it's a perfect moment to remind ourselves of one of the great games of last century. Greece vs Germany. Two distinct teams, two very different styles. Excellent work from the ref and his assistants. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ur5fGSBsfq8&w=700]

Schopenhauer's comment sums it all up succintly: "Greeks were very lucky that day. We were in far from our usual form, and even then the goal was clearly offside as Marx claimed. I am pretty sure that we could beat them in another game, which unfortunately never took place again. And this actually vindicates my general thoughts on life: one should keep his desires at minimum and try to avoid trouble and hence suffering."

 

What a fine figure of a man. Schmeichel's intimidating physique (he wears an XXXL shirt and stands 6ft 4 tall) and attacking threat gave him a presence beyond that of mere mortal goalies. He also scored 11 goals, a great feat for a keeper, and had a habit of racing into the oppositions box for penalties when his team was behind. He is the most capped player for the Danish national team, with 129 games and a goal between 1987 and 2001. Apart from Euro 92, he played for his nation at the 1998 FIFA World Cup and three additional European Championship tournaments. He captained the team in 30 matches.

Today, he is regarded as one of the greatest goalkeepers ever. And I washed my hair with the wrong shampoo this morning, so today I look a bit like him. I'm a bit taller though.
