Germany 4 Portugal 0- it was a huge, huge shocker in the sense that we never expected Germany to thrash Portugal that thoroughly!!!! They’re both good teams so I expected maybe a draw or a 2-1. This???? Whoa- they’re on fire.

I just found it a bit funny because Spain and Portugal are both perceived to be strong teams that, to everyone’s surprise, were practically beaten up in the opening matches :D (“Germanics” because Dutch is a Germanic language).
