What will also confuse you will be that there is more than one nation playing in a team competition!

France (Algeria A team) vs Germany should be a real battle!

Germany weren't very convincing today, picking a winner of this tournament is a crapshoot everyone has faults

This World Cup has so many upsets... Who thinks a new champion will be crowned here? Colombia looks really good. Belgium looks good and maybe even the US..... I just don't want Brazil to win it.

I don't want Germany to win it as they've already won too many
I don't want Brazil to win it as they are a limited one player team with too much hype
I don't want Argentina to win it because I still haven't forgotten the hand of god
I don't want Holland to win it because - Robben

I'm in two minds about the USA, I live in the USA and cheer the team but their fans would make it insufferable for an Englishman living here.

I'd take France as they have 3 Newcastle players in their line-up (yes I'm still counting Cabaye)
I'd take Belgium for Univers Zero, Aranis & Present
I'd take Colombia as they just seem to be having fun
I'd take Costa Rica but it ain't gonna happen

I hope so then England can boast they held the World Champions to a draw! (We've got b*gger all else to boast about). Ouch
Despite the fact that for some reason I find Neuer incredibly irritating, he was brilliant acting as sweeper behind the exposed German defence last night.
