Yeah, I want The Netherlands to be champions, but if they go against Germany in the finals it will be very tough for them.

 ^ Even though England have made a strong claim to the title - I would probably make the French Team in its entirety, my 'Nightmare Team' for forgetting that the point of the World Cup is not an ego thing

                          Juan            K.-P. Boateng                             Klose   

                                    Maicon                  Snejder




A few of my favourites didn't catch the first 11 but I felt like mentioning them: Iniesta, Podolski, Gyan, Tevez, Suazo, Donovan, Suarez, etc.

What's your dream team?



And now my nightmare team:


                                         Evra                            Ribery

                              Cannavarro                    C.Ronaldo           Rooney
Green
                                                              Gerrard                                      Torres
                              Vidic
                                     
                                          Sagna                          Messi


On the bench: Kaka (he had a few good moments but way to few for such a superstar wannabe), Gallas (and most of the French team), Eto'o, Kalou, etc.

I hope I'm not cursing them (I did predict Brazil would triumph) but I really hope Uruguay win now. It would be amazing for a country of three million to lift the trophy and unlike the brave but negative Paraguay they are actually good to watch.

Having said all that Germany seem to be obviously the best team so they are probably favourites.

Maybe, maybe not. We'll never know thanks to the incompetence of FIFA and the ridiculous Sepp Blatter.

I hope Spain thrash Germany and I don't even like Spain!

I am hoping Uruguay thrash the Netherlands but that won't happen without Suárez, however good Forlán is.  If they can sneak a win without him then he hopefully will be back for the final where they'll beat Spain. Big smile

And I missed the end of the Paraguay vs. Spain game.  I saw the two penalties and then had to go out.  That was amazing though!

By the way, Paraguay should have been asked to retake that penalty.

Yes, Chris, hats off to Paraguay.  Spain played well and looked pretty but never had many real chances.  Germany should dismantle them.

After witnessing the end of the Ghana-Uruguay match, I thought I would be hard pressed to see that kind of drama again but the proceedings in the 2nd half of Paraguay-Spain may have been even more crazy.

If Spain and Holland go the finals, there will be a new champion, the first since France 98. 
I thought Paraguay played an awesome game.
 
My wishes now:
Germany 3- Spain 0
Uraguay 0 - Netherlands 3
