Exactly right... the pain of losing the semifinal is a distant memory...and your last game is a victory

No doubt the memory of losing a final last a lot longer... and look at Germany how many finals they have lost... On the other hand, they have been Champions 3 times...

Like Loki said... they get up and fight again... which is the true sign of a champion.

who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows great enthusiasms,
the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while
DARING GREATLY
so that his place shall never be
with those timid souls
who know neither victory or defeat.
