ME TOO! Well I mean I'm part German but I'm still rooting for the Netherlands! It would be such a cool story for them if they can hold on for two more games and pull this off

I think it's gonna be Germany v Netherlands with hopefully Germany winning, but I'd like Spain to win (maybe cause I was there for a month in May/June)!

And you only won because you were given a goal that obviously was none.
Now come and say this time you weren't given a goal that obviously was one but who knows if things had been different if this goal had counted...We still scored 2 more goals.

and in the end it's still just a game isn't it?

What bothers me about the Germany/England match is that Capello could have had a much better squad. Leaving off the likes of Joe Hart, Adam Johnson, Peter Crouch, and Michael Dawson was a huge mistake. We were left with a bunch of overpaid prima donnas that looked like they couldn't care less. They don't deserve to wear the Three Lions.

If Germany were the last team on the planet, and the future of football would lie in their hands...I'd still spit on them.

The Netherlands for the win, obviously.

The Dutch have always managed to produce some of my all-time favorite players. I would love to see them finally win the World Cup.


The same goes for Spain as well, actually.

I´m sorry, Spain had their moment in the sun two years ago... I believe it´s our turn now. But yeah, I´d rather lose to Spain than to Germany.

Oh, Spain is definitely my second choice by quite a long way. Since England is a constant disappointment, the Netherlands is my team in major tournaments. I can't stand the thought of Germany winning, ever. At this point I would go for North Korea over them.

What's so bad about Germany winning that it's better than North Korea winning?

I'd like to see Germany or the Netherlands win. I know you guys have a big rivalry between each other (the way England thinks they have with Germany ) but I'd be happy to see either of those teams win.

Having said that, I have little-to-no interest in football so I guess I don't really care.

I'll watch but the games are continually ruined by those mind numbing vuvuzelas. They have even spread to the US and were seen/heard at an Angels game.
