I agree! Just like neither team should have won the CL this year

Do people realize how ironic the final is? It's the two biggest chokers in International football ever squaring off for all the beans. Based on the history of the two teams, the score should end knotted at -3.

Sneider won't find the space he craves in "the hole" against Spain, as the Spanish are surely going to overcrowd the midfield, but Robben should find it fairly easier to play the Spanish. He's going to be up against Capdevilla one on one a lot, especially that the Spanish have no real left winger that will track back and help Capdevilla. I think that might work in Hollands favor, Robben could do them a lot of damage.

I love it how people hate Spain so much

The most annoying football national team I have ever seen play

 

[Yamen]

Holland will win.

wait for paul

 

[Red]

I feel sorry for Germany, because they have played the best football of the tournament, but Spain were certainly the better team tonight.

I can see what you're saying from a big team perspective, but I simply find it more intriguing that a new winner will be crowned. Unless it's your team, I don't know why one would want repeat winners.



Why wasn't this asked last time around? Italy wasn't impressive and France was simply a one-man team. But I don't recall people complaining about those facts.

I was not around the last World Cup.

To be fair though watching Zidane was a joy so atleast you had something to look forward too because there is not one Spanish player that is anywhere near Zidane. Atleast the Germany-Italy semi final was entertaining not like this drab I witnessed today.

You don't enjoy watching those tiny men pass the ball back and forth?

 

[Oggy]

But a good one though.

One of my friend bet huge many on Spain only because Paul said Spain will win

That's another reason why it's interesting. Oh, the suspense of seeing who will choke more.

Aside from the head butt, the final last time was fairly rubbish as well.

It isn't so much fun when there aren't people on the other side of the spectrum. Does nobody like this Spanish team??


Will make for some dull atmosphere on here in the final.

 

[king Ale]

Holland won't play the final against the hosts this time. They must win then

Aaron, I preferred the way Germans played throughout the tournament.

But this happens almost every year, just look at Argentina in 2006.

 

[CalcioJuventus]

Btw, Arsene Wenger has been saying that Spain will win the WC from the start in Al-Jazeera, after each game they play poorly and the reporter asks him, do you still think they're good enough, after every game he has the same answer: They will you'll see.

Looks like he might be right.

Hopefully not though. HUP ORANJE!!!

I told ppl that too then they lost the firt game and i felt like a retard. but I think they deserve it and I was hoping they beat Germany.

I hope Casillas and Stekelenburg have a contest of who can give up the most own goals in 90 minutes.

That said I actually like Spain and Holland.

That's because many people here actually liked one of the teams in that final(fanboys as you'd call them). This time, there are a couple of Dutch fans(Ken and Martin) and maybe a few Spanish fans. I'm sure that if this was a Barca forum, people here would be creaming their pants at the Final 2 teams.

I agree! Just like neither team should have won the CL this year

I don't agree with that. I do feel that Inter deserved to win it. They had a really good team led by a good coach. It's just that we didn't want them to win it.

 

[Nicholas]

The final was yes. However Zidane was a joy to watch all the tournament same with Cannavaro. SPain and Holland have scraped through games neither with an outstanding player in their ranks. Granted Sneijder and Villa have both scored goals but neither have been as to watch.

Brazil vs Germany would of been the best final this year.

I don't like Holland either but I prefer them to win this time. It's a win-win/lose-lose situation for me
