Yesterday something historical

[jonathanfis]

Happened. Sweden receipted Germany with 4-4 on their home arena.

Sweden was under with 3-0 after the first halftime. Then Mesut Ã-zil scored a goal and made Germany have 4-0. Everyone thought it was over for Sweden. They all knew that Germany is one of the best football national teams in the world. Then a miracle happened. Sweden kicked in their first goal against Germany through Zlatan Ibrahimovic with a header at the 61st minute. Sweden still knew that they couldn't win but they had reduced the score. Then at the 64th minute Mikael Lustig made 2-4 to Sweden. The Swedish people gained hope and faith again. Then at the 76th minute Johan Elmander scored 3-4 for Sweden. The Swedes knew they could receipt Germany. And then the miracle happened. 2 minutes in off added time Rasmus Elm kicked in 4-4 to Sweden. The Swedes jumped up and down of pride and joy for their soccer team. That's the first time in 104 years Germany has lost a home game to another team.

I don't know anything about soccer/football, but how does ending the game with the same score count as a loss?

Sports aren't history man.

I didn't say it was a loss. It was the first time in 104 years a away team beat Germany at their arena in Berlin.

They used to be bad, but they're on a roll with their new coach.

That's the first time in 104 years Germany has lost a home game to another team.

And anyway, if you say they beat them, that would imply that Germany lost.

Shame on them, though. Sloppy defending in the last 30 minutes of the game. I'm looking forward to see the Germans fight the Dutch at Amsterdam Arena next month.

Will be a very interesting match. I hope!

The Olympics transcend mere sport.

I thought you were talking about the Presidential debate, which I think is probably more important than sports. I almost thought you were being sarcastic, but it seems like you're serious with all the discussion you left.

Thanks for copying and pasting the sports section into NG

Cool. I don't really follow football though. Or as I call it in my country, Soccer.

England is the 6th best team according to this! England is great especially Rooney and Walcott and of course Joe Hart

What's amazing is that Germany is the 3rd best soccer team in the world while sweden is at number 17

I was expecting something about the Presidential debate.

Or something actually worth mentioning.

So the Munich Massacre that happened in 1972 is not history then?
Okay, didn't realize you were a Historian.

Don't put words in my mouth. Also the Munich Massacre wasn't a sporting event, it took place at one.
