Who Will Win the World Cup?

[ConcernedParent]

I knew Spain was going to win over Germany and am real certain they will beat the Dutch.

I initially rooted for the Netherlands because I have some ties to the country, but after witnessing Van Bommel's thuggery, Van Persie's whining, etc... I'm throwing my support behind Spain. Spain also has the prettier players

...and their dark red jersey is not as bright as the orange! Subtle, understated, classic. My choice for the WC!

Who's going to play it? Certainly you don't mean the Dutch?

We spaniards, with the help of the holy inquisition again.

Stomping on a leg or two and getting away with it is a part of total football.

Don't be too sad when you lose.

That's what I'm talking about. La Oranje!

Agreed, could be one of the all time great finals. Holland are leaky at the back, but will score goals. No keeper on the planet could have saved von bronchorsts strike or Robbens header. I really now have no idea who will win. Probably going to come down to a mistake on the day or a wonder goal. Possibly a penalty shoot out? Now that would be exciting.

No certainly not the team who invented it.

I'm sure the Dutchmen can defeat Spain in the upcoming match for third place, though, if Spain goes easy on it, or maybe even takes to the field with their second-string side, which would actually be a great success for such a - well, how shall I put it - modest and unfortunate country...
