The Germans sure do look tough to beat. Who woulda thought they were going to dominate the Argentinians? Another surprise are the Dutch. It look liked a few weeks ago that the South American teams would dominate, but they are starting to fall by the way side.

The Paraguay and Spain match suddenly bursts into life! Paraguay miss a penalty at one end, Spain go straight up the other end and get a penalty of their own. Alonso scores it just to be made to take it again, when it was saved and in the scramble for the rebound Fabregas was fouled for what should have been another penalty except the ref didnt see it.

The ref should have given a red card for the Spanish penalty but didnt. He disallowed Alonso's goal but didnt make Paraguay take their penalty again for the exact same offence. He's not having a good night!

Amazing stuff though.

I hope it's a Holland vs Germany final with Holland winning the tournament.

Aside from the fact the Dutch hate the Germans even more than the English & there's a shitload of bad blood between them it'll make for a really entertaining game.

And I think the Dutch deserve a world cup win for what they've given to the game throughout history.

I'm hoping it would Holland and Spain with Holland winning also. I think they were overlooked for the entire tournament. I love the underdogs though they have to be the favorites against Uruguay.

Agree on all accounts. A week ago I was pulling for a South American final of any sort- but Netherlands/Deutschland would be great as well...

The Dutch would look to put right their defeat in 1974.

I'll second this post. It's my sentiments verbatim.

All I can say is... Australia v Germany 0-4 (with only 10 players)
Argentina v Germany 0-4 (Full 11 whole match)

I'm deducing, with my astounding logical inteligence that Australia are therefore better than Argentina.

England > Australia > Argentina.
