[quote] BLOEMFONTEIN, South Africa (AP -- Germany reached the World Cup quarterfinals Sunday by beating England 4-1 in a match that will be remembered for the goal not awarded to Frank Lampard. Thomas Mueller finished two quick counterattacks within four minutes in the second half to sink England's hopes of beating Germany at the World Cup for the first time since the 1966 final. That England win at Wembley 44 years ago included a similar goal off the crossbar that is still disputed to this day, with many Germans believing the ball never crossed the line. Now, England fans will have something to complain about for decades to come. Miroslav Klose and Lukas Podolski gave Germany a 2-0 lead before Matthew Upson pulled a goal back for England in the 37th minute. Lampard then had his legitimate goal not awarded in the 38th. More Coverage: Germany vs. England Live | Video: Frank Lampard Shot Not Awarded Complete World Cup Coverage | World Cup Scores | World Cup TV Schedule Lampard sent a hard shot from outside the area off the underside of the crossbar. The ball bounced down, and television replays showed it had crossed the goal line. The ball then bounced back up off the crossbar again and landed outside the goal area. Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer collected the ball as England shouted for a goal, but Uruguayan referee Jorge Larrionda motioned for play to continue. Had the goal been awarded, it could have changed the course of the match. Klose scored his 50th goal in 99 games for Germany in the 20th minute, his 12th World Cup goal, by outmuscling Upson to a bouncing ball off a goal kick. Podolski struck Germany's second 12 minutes later, slotting the ball through James' legs and exposing the weak England defense yet again. Upson headed in a cross from Steven Gerrard to make it 2-1. Mueller scored on the counterattack in the 67th minute, having started the move after a long clearance by Jerome Boateng. His shot hit the hand of England goalkeeper David James and went inside the post. Three minutes later, Mueller scored again after a break on the left side by Mesut Oezil. Lineups: Germany: Manuel Neuer, Philipp Lahm, Per Mertesacker, Arne Friedrich, Jerome Boateng, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Sami Khedira, Thomas Mueller (Piotr Trochowski, 72), Mesut Oezil (Stefa Kiessling, 83), Lukas Podolski, Miroslav Klose (Mario Gomez, 72). England: David James, Glen Johnson (Shaun Wright-Phillips, 87) John Terry, Matthew Upson, Ashley Cole, James Milner (Joe Cole, 64), Gareth Barry, Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, Wayne Rooney, Jermain Defoe (Emile Heskey, 71).[/quote] [img]http://d.yimg.com/i/ng/ne/skynews/20100625/12/1491284280-psychic-octopus-makes-england-prediction.jpg[/img] All heil glorious Octopus overlord Paul

I think the Germans lost WWII because they didn't have Paul.

Would be 4-2 if the ref wasn't blind.

Funny thing: after this match, all the flags that had been hung out windows, strapped onto cars, and so on in England rapidly began to disappear.

The Oracletopus knows all.

Oh my god. I could make a lot of money off this octopus. Now, time to get my spy gear.
If that goal was allowed it could have changed the game, slim chance but still ref needs firing
