<p>Ghana should have won. I’ll be more than happy to see Uruguay be crushed by the Netherlands.</p>
<p>^A lot of other people feel that way too.</p>
<p>First, the Netherlands’ win really wasn’t that much of an upset if it was one at all.</p>
<p>Second, Germany will lose to Argentina. </p>
<p>Third, why is everyone saying Spain won’t make it out of the semis? They are a world class team with outstanding talent and easily the best midfield in the world. They play a style that makes it difficult for the opposing team to get the ball back once they have lost possession and David Villa is showing why he is among the world’s elite strikers. They are more than capable of taking on Argentina and winning the World Cup.</p>
<p>My bracket is on fire. The Netherlands are now showing my friends why I picked them to win it all. I feel like Germany’s got the best bid to the finals, but if anyone else makes it then Netherlands wins it all.</p>
<p>There’s going to be a lot of pressure on Spain. Same goes for the Netherlands. </p>
<p>I wouldn’t count out Germany.</p>
<p>I’m getting a Luis Suarez jersey ASAP.</p>
<p>Let’s go Uruguay!!!</p>
<p>(They’ve been my number 3 team all the way. Behind the U.S. and Mexico.)</p>
<p>^ same here.</p>
<p>WOW what a beautiful two consecutive goals from Germany.</p>
<p>Killer game. Germany will probably win the World Cup.</p>
<p>well whoever wins Spain v Germany will win the world cup that’s for sure.</p>
<p>go teamwork!</p>
<p>Tevez reminds me of the Tasmanian devil, you know that cartoon character. Seriously, just look at how he plays.</p>
<p>Alexi Lalas predicted that no South American team would make it to the semifinal stage and everyone thought he was crazy. He was so close to being right at the end. If only Ghana had held on…</p>
<p>Any single one of the 4 teams in the semis will be able to win the whole thing. Germany have certainly surprised me though. Im still going to be rooting for Holland all the way though, they finally beat brazil and I feel like they really deserve a WC by now.</p>
<p>The Germans are going to win it against the Dutch.</p>
<p>That’s odd because Spain will beat Germany</p>
<p>That’s odd because Germany is a better TEAM.</p>
<p>Dutch delight! Dutch delirium!
I can’t wait for the Germany-Spain game. I have a feeling Germany’s gonna win.</p>
<p>If Spain keeps playing the way they have been this WC, they won’t beat Germany – the Germans have been playing extremely well as a TEAM – Spain hasn’t (where are Xavi, Torres, Iniesta, etc?). They’ve been lucky to have David Villa pull tricks out of his sleeve. He’ll have trouble penetrating a well-organized German defense.</p>
<p>^^except that nearly all the teams Spain have faced so far have had strong defenses, so thats not much of an issue i don’t think. And Iniesta has been doing great…
I feel like it will depend on who gets the first goal. Germany has gotten the first goal in the past two games, which has allowed them to focus on a strong counterattack (because the other team would be pulling everyone up for an attack) against teams who have had weak defenses. If Spain can manage to prevent an early German goal then they definitely have a better chance especially since their defense is stronger than England/Argentina, and if Spain can manage to get the first goal I think they have a decent chance. It would be interesting to see how the Germans deal with catching up, since they won’t be able to rely completely on the counterattack. Whatever happens, I hope it will at least be a closer game than the last two German games.</p>
<p>La furia roja!!!</p>
<p>^yep! team spain for the world cup! woo hoo :D</p>
