Casillas this cup reminds me a lot of Oliver Kahn from Germany in 2002. Very tough GK that was one of the big reasons the team is able to advance to the finals and only gave up 1-2 goals before the Finals.
A lot of praise going to Villa and Spain's attackers but their defense and GK are the hidden reasons they finally are winning. Same for the Netherlands since now they are focused on winning than their usual collapsing style. |

Anyone who hopes the Netherlands wins the final has no soul. The first world cup in Africa, held in South Africa, to be won by a country who colonized them and held them under apartheid for years sounds like a bad joke

Can't see Holland beating Spain, though having said that was sure the Germans would win tonight by kick off time.

Casillas has had a poor World Cup compared to his usual standard.
Well done to the Germans for their showing, will be a force at the next Euros. |

Knew Germany's bubble would burst tonight. 8 goals in 2 games was just too good. They've overachieved and can go home proud.
Spain were my pick before the cup started and I think they'll go all the way. It's gonna be a fantastic final, 2 similar teams in this cup really. They've bumbled along not really looking very impressive but getting the job done, then turning it on when they have to. Great to see these 2 teams finally playing like champions after years of disappointment. |

I love how the Germans want to fry Paul the Octopus now, and the Spanish prime minister is fighting to save it.

Have a 6 point lead going into the Uruguay Germany game. 3rd place is 6 pts and the championship is 10 points. Going to gamble and take Uruguay in my World Cup pick em and go for the win right now instead of trying to guess tommorow.

Watching this game proves Spain gets away with a lot of stuff that generates fouls or cards by the other team/teams (mostly pulling and tugging but rarely called as fouls).

gg for an Everton player getting sent off.

No but the reason the Dutch players were fuming was the previous play by Netherlands could have been a free kick based on how if Spain fell it was called as a foul and the missed corner kick from Sneijder's free kick.
Spain might also own the record for least amount of goals scored by a cup winner (8 goals in 7 games). |
