Ma setasc ionchos illi anchi ahna phir-redattioni tal-Bollettin niddedicau phtit hin lill-avveniment tas-sena' illi ghaddei bhalissa geuua l-Alemania. Ma chellniesc hin sabiesc niddocumentau chull attioni ieu avveniment sficalcisticu chif sctacna ghasc il-hin hua baghal u ahna ma nithalltusc ma tali annimali.

Icholli nirraconta pero' storia li tuassal element iehor f'dauna il-pagini illi ilhom iirraccuntau l'isteiier taghHa fuc seba' snin issa. Philfatt ched nitchellem duar isc-scadenfreude illi issemmiet fil-pagini altrui tal-blogosphera nostrana - b'mod spicchevoli fil-pagni tal-kurat. Dina isc-schadenfreude hiia propriament descrittioni ta' dak illi ihossu certa nies mita id-donna bendata tolcot lil haddiehor. Is-Sur Schadenfreude huwa philfatt n-namrat mistur tad-donna bendata ghaliesc iorgazzma bil-cauui chull mita timmaniphesta ruhha. Il-pronjozi ta' prezenza Schadenfreudiana huma dahc sadomasochisticu u anchi sadicu, espressioniiet bhal nghidu ahna "Hudha ma sacaich" u anchi "Hecc Haccech ia baghal" u aphariet ohra "in this line of thought". M'hemmsc sci nghidu illi l-prezenza tas-sur Schadenfreunde ma tghin scein lill-vittma predestinata al-isfi*a illi taf ucholl tirricori ghat-tried and tested method ta' "hadt ghaliia".

Thanks to this ghandna genii bhal Buster Keaton, Laurel and Hardy (l-ohscon u l-irchic) u George Pullicino.

Sadattant - back in the city - ilbierah fl-occasioni tal-loghba Argentina Falldownfornothings vs Mehico Exbrazilians, Gakbu Sfigho rehilha ghal ghand Edmond Bugettu-san Buhagiar sabiesc l-euuel iilaghbu phtit pleisteiscin imbaghad imorru iarau il-loghba fid-dimora tat-Tube - post very anglo saxon. Minhabba li l-loghba chienet "foregone conclusion" schond l-iSfigho u anchi li minhabba li l-Proeveolution Soccer beda iihrasc iddecideu li imorru biss iarau it-tieni half.

Philphatt uaslu geuua tube semi-desert pero scopreu li r-rizultat chien uihed avvincenti phein anchi l-iscuadra tal-Volpi chienu ched iaghtu loghba lil-mishutin pretendenti tal-Islas Malvinas. Bein Sprite u iehor iz-zeug cumpanii fil-loghob iddiscuteu il-pregii ta' Zinha (bhala zeug fens tal-brezil ma setghux ma jindunausc li chien "a cut above the rest") u l-gosti tal-inglizi. Kien f'mument discuisitoriu bhal dan illi l-eroi nostrani sabu ruiehhom circondati minn grupp ta' fenns inglizi lebsin gearijiet tal-Leicester u collha bil-pinta regolamentari f'ideihom.

Dawna l-inglizi (Fosthom uihed li fuc daru fil-kitt chellu michtub "NANDO") mid-dehra chienu in transit ghal Stuttgart fein l-ghada (n.dr. Illum) chellhom ilaghbu Baked Beans Utd. Minhabba nuccas ta' nies geuua il-bar, ic-curmalia 'Ngliza ma setghusc ma judurusc fuc Bugettu-san u Gakbu sabiesc iinterpellauhom duar divertimenti varii li setghu isibu geuua Letzeburgu. Nella serie si salvi chi puo' spiegainilhom li Lutzburg ma hisc ezattament Ibitha ieu Palma de Maioooca u li haun ialchu f'nofsilleilissiegha. Ma hadusc gost.

Imbaghad sacseuna ma min inzommu. GHidnilhom Brasil. U fehemuna. Imbaghad stacseuna iecch ghandniesc ghal-calbna l-Argentina. Tainihom harsa "which goes back" minn zmien il-familja Drummond u ghidnilhom "Cosa stai dicendo Willis?" Ovvjament ma fehemu scein pero dahculna ghasc sports.

Chien ph'dan il-mument li inaghqad maghna s-siniur Shadenfreude. IL-conversattioni marret sci haga hecc. BB (fenns minn Albjun) GE (Gakbu ieu BugettuSan):

BB: Yeah! We will watch Eng-e-land tomorrow against Ec-ua-dor (ma nafsc ghaliesc ighidu isem it-timijiet chollha hecc) in Stuttgart. Then if we win (haunhecc innutaina li l-pagani inglizi ma ghamlu l-ebda siniali ta' scaramantia)we have tickets for the quarter final.

GE: (ghainein ta' ghawdxi u bormliz miftuhin berah - the deal is on) What happens if (siniali ta' scarmantia ancora 0) you lose?

BB: Well then we come back to Luxembourg and try to sell our tickets. I'm not going to watch Ecuador in no quarter final.

Haunhecc tinhtieg pauza. Ph'dan il-mument il-Conventioni Internattionali ta' Fenns u Fenatics tal-Fitboll tehtieg sinjali ta' simpatia. GS u Bugettu San chellhom minimament iuru li iifmu dach li ched ighidu l-Inglaterrizi u iaqblu mal-pian cavalleresc taghhom li iehilsu mill-bilietti li iistghu biss ifaccruhomfl-isfortuna ta' Spilungonecrouch and co. Izda... b'vuci uahda, unanimament, neminem contram, ad hoc u anchi en masse qalu flimkien:

GE: Do you want my number? Erm Just in case you know. Just in case you lose. You can phone us and we will buy the tickets.

U b'hecc l-Ghawdxi u l-Bormliz hargu il-vera uicc scaccall tal-futboll. Your loss is my gain ecc ecc. L-inglizi ghall-euuel inhasdu. Iccalmainihom bi frazi tipo "Not that we want you to lose" (haunhecc irrimarcaina haphna crossedfingers uara dar Bugettu San u Gakbu Sfigho) but you know... U fl-ahhar cedeu. Hadu n-numru ta' Bugettu San u ghandhom icemplulna iecch allaharesdeiiem iigri l-impossibli u ighaddu l-Ecuador.
