Hello Erik, you're a connoisseur of the italian football vocabulary!

Hope Italy will play good games...our team seems to be not very strong, but frequently lucky. And no one can't go far only being lucky!

Brazil almost never won in Europe; I think Germany or Italy.

My vote goes to Brazil as well, Adriano and Ronaldinho are currently the two best strikers in the world... and with Kaka playing just behind them they're going to be hard to stop.

The only thing I'm a little uncertain about regarding the Brazilian team, is the defence/goalkeeper.
Goalkeepers have always been a weak spot for Brazil, and even though Dida is the best they've had in a long time, he's still prone to make bad mistakes.

As for the defence, both Cafu and Roberto Carlos have lost some of their former ability, so it will be interesting to see how they perform.

Only a few months for the Soccer World Cup in Germany.

According to newspaper polls favourites are Germany (host) and Brazil (present champion) but surprises may happen.

My vote is obvious!
