One wonders what really came off the 2010 Deutsche squad?

They played the game in clinical form and in sheer delight as well packing in all those non-school boy goals in the highest level of tournament. The Germans had actually come a long way to South Africa and to win at all cost.

Before all that, let me take you to another trip away from World Cup. Lets go Deutscheland- the only country I know that calls itself Fatherland.

This is a country full of mighty old castles  castles and more castles. On top of that, they have the Autobahn - high speed highway - one of the best speedways in the world. This is the only place I know where you get to see the likes of Lamborghini and Porches zoom past you at more then 250 kmh. This is no kid's play. And the autobahns are cemented not tarred.

If you need to know, it was Hitler's idea to have the autobahn built in Germany. Why?  Hitler wanted his massive army mobilised to any part of Germany in a swift. So he got some road engineers and came up with the Autobahn. It was in early 1939-40 when the Autobahns were built/constructed and it had stayed till now.  Sadly, the genius who actually came up with the idea died in a plane crash - and right so crashing into the Autobahn while it was still under construction.

The Germans are a proud stock. Again it was Hitler who made every German stand out and stay "Ich bin Deutscher."( I'm German) proudly. He made every German stand tall and be accounted for. The way of life is almost clockwork at times. One wonders what ticks them at all. And the Germans HATE the English. Another tickling story I believe.

Having spent some time in Germany myself, and having travelled Europe and Scandinavia and all, all I can say is this - Germany is one country no other nation in all Europe can come close. They are almost next to perfection.

Deutscheland  ...  Deutscheland ...  Deutscheland....
