Never say die

A match between 2 resilient teams... can't say the same about StarHub. Turkey draws first blood but Germany equalize then disaster strikes... StarHub loses the transmission with the score at 1-1. When the signal was restored, the freaking score was 2-2!!! I missed 2 goals... ~!@#$%^&*. Philip Lahm soon scores in the 89th minute to give Germany a 3-2 lead then the signal is lost again. WTF!!!
Transmission resumes but the game is over. the German players are celebrating on the pitch with the Turks nowhere in sight. Is StarHub going to do a partial refund for the cock-up? StarHub realised their mistake and decided to make it up by replaying the segment of the game that was missed. I watched Klose give Germany a 2-1 lead and saw Turkey fight back in the 86th minute. The Turks must have thought they had done it again but scoring late in the game. But it was not to be as Germany gave them a taste of their own medicine by killing them off in the 89th minute. The Turks' luck had run out even though they outplayed the Germans.
