Most Germans would prefer watching their team contesting the World Cup final than having sex with their partners, a survey here has revealed¹ on Thursday.

上周四公布的一项调查显示，多数德国人愿为观看本国球队争夺世界杯冠军的决赛而舍弃做爱。

Supporters of the German football team wave flags as they cheer on their team during a 2010 World Cup qualifier match in 2009.

Should Joachim Loew's side reach the final in Johannesburg（约翰尼斯堡） on July 11, a potential night of passion³ would be shown the red card by most Germans in favour of the chance to see their team in action on television.

In a survey for the Reader's Digest⁴ magazine, only five percent of those questioned would prefer a night between the sheets with their loved one to watching Germany contest the World Cup final.

And only an emergency would stop 52 percent watching the final live, while a fifth of all those surveyed said not even that excuse would prevent them being glued to（顶住不放） the television, should Germany reach the final.

But 38 percent of those questioned said they were not interested in football.

However, Germany's success on the field can turn up the heat in the nation's bedrooms: there were a flood of new-born babies here nine months after the national side finished third at the World Cup four years ago.
