For the decades Serbs have sufferred from apathy and poor-spiritedness every time they succeeded in placing themselves at the World Championship. Serbs also used to get hypnotised every time they played against Germany, Argentina and Holland. They are not as bad as their spirit is traditionally low. I bet it is going to be 4:1 for Germany in the next round. Even if Serbs would lead 2:0 against Germany in 15 minutes till the end of the game, it will be enough of time for Germany to reverse the trend and to finally celebrate with 3:2, or 4:2. That is a tradition and that has happenned so many times in the past. Serbs simply use to become frightened in the last 15 minutes of the game, they then stop running and helplessly begin to direct their eyes at the watch crying for the end of the match to come. Being a Serb, I always feel so shamefull when watching our national football team on great tournaments. That displays all the nation in a very bad light.
