World Cup 2010 - one thread to rule them all

[Enmos]

A few words about Germany, so far the team of the tournament.

I agree. Germany shouldn't have any trouble with Spain if the matches of today are any indication of how either team will play.

I feel that Paraguay deserved more..

I am for Germany winning FIFA as of now.

The standings after the Quarter finals:

- Blue scores are represent 3 points for predicting the correct winner or draw.
- Red scores represent the above 3 points plus the additional 10 points for predicting the correct score.

The ranking in the 'hall of fame' remains unchanged.




The matches of the Semi Finals:

(July 6th) Uruguay - Netherlands

(July 7th) Germany - Spain


NOTE: If you think a team will win by means of penalty shoot-out put the score like this: 1 - 1p.

Well, not so much this year.

 

[Enmos]

Well, not so much this year.

I was pleasantly surprised by Paraguay today though. I was hoping they would win in the end. But alas.. Spain won, slightly undeserved in my opinion.

No I am American. From the good ole' Sunshine State. But I am aprox. 80% German through bloodlines. I am just very proud of my heritage.

Uruguay Netherlands 1:3

Germany Spain ..... uhmmm, don´t know , we already had too many great matches, it can´t continue this way.
spain doesn´t always look like a challenge, but they are pretty pretty good. without müller, it will even more difficult. so ... i´ll wait, what our octopus will predict :shrug:

Don't worry it will be stopped by Netherlands, but Spain -especially this Spain- is not a match for Germany.

spain doesn´t always look like a challenge, but they are pretty pretty good.

Even Paraguay was about to stop them, Spain has consumed all its power while Germany has improved since the beginning of this tournament. And against your "already had too many great matches, it can't continue this way", I have another theory: These matches have provided greater self confidence for Germany.

without müller, it will even more difficult.

You don't have Muller, but Spain has "only" David Villa. Do you see the difference?

so ... i´ll wait, what our octopus will predict :shrug:

Yeah, but this Octupus is obsessed with red and yellow colours; it will go for Spain this time and will necessarily fail...

 

[Anti-Flag]

Still think Spain will win it.
