I dont get how u can say that Croatia or teams like us that have come to quarter finals without loosing a game, we didnt even lost in quarters, lack flair and creativity to win the tittle?
Using that logic only the Euro winner has both and that is simply not true.
We all know that after group stages u only got 1 chance or u re out so the main factor becomes luck, thats why often worse team passes through like the case was yesterday or like the case was when Turkey beat Croatia.

well the worst team on the day did go through yesterday, but only because on the day, Germany - technically a better team, and ranked better didn't play to their ranking level... turkey were lucky and had they got to teh final they would have done so against the odds and ranking - they will rank higher when the world rankings get done next time....
sometimes the worse playing team wins through - and usually the worse team is with the lower ranking, but in yesterday's case Turkey lost - it doesn't seem fair, but thats football... and Germany have the winning mentality and WILL to win - Turkey showed that in two previous games, but their luck and determination ran out - thats why teams like Germany win and teams like England end up losing all the time....
