goodbye germany

It still breaks my heart to see them finish in third place, as opposed to the top spot I envisioned but they played a good third-place match against the worthy Uruguayans (bar Luis Suarez, I might have done the same if I were you but your comments thereafter made me want to hit you).

It was nice to see the players come together one more to do what they do so well; fingers crossed that you will all lift the trophy in four years!
