Brazil is going to play the final against Argentina.

It's been obvious since the first week of the competition.

They haven't lost a competitive game in Brazil in nearly 40 years. As "pathetic" as they may seem, they still have that record to protect, a vociferous home crowd and most likely the match officials by their side. And also let's not forget that Germany has developed a bit of a reputation in the last few years of being chokers in the semi final stage of competition.

The loss of Neymar is a blessing in disguise IMO, because now the attacking midfielders and strikers will see this as opportunity to prove to their country that they can win without their star player. I expect Fred to score.

If they do win I can only see it with that, which is even more pathetic.

As for Neymar, I see your point, but I disagree. Simply because all those players looked quite lost, even with Neymar there. I don't think anything will change after so many matches.

We'll see how it goes tonight. I know Germany usually chokes at this stage, but I'm gonna be surprised tbh if they go out tonight.

You could've made a fortune if you thought it was obvious. Actually, you still can. If it's obvious then it's easy money.

I'm not a betting man, Dušan.

No but seriously, the odds were clearly in Brazil and Argentina's favour from the start. No European team has won in South America.

Watch Neymar dive in the stands and get a penalty.

It doesn't mean there won't be European finalist.

Oh and Dusan, I really do hope I am wrong and we see a Germany V Netherlands final Fuck Brazil and Arg, both hateable teams.

Finally, thank you!

At least it doesn't feel horrible to read that.

Germany and Netherlands are among the three most hateable teams ever imo.

Germany have become tolerable.

Brazil, Argentina and Spain

Not compared to Brazil.

I always liked Brazil, but not this team.

At the moment I find Spain the most disgusting. Holland was almost always irritating for me.

I like Germany, though. Maybe not when they pretend to be Barca.

germans? some of the most boring people ever

Brazil, Argentina and Spain

Spain only as of recently. They have always been chokers on every major tournament before their golden generation. Similar to Holland, qualifying easily for every tournament, only to crumble at the very first obstacle on their way. Probably we'll see more of that Spain from now on. Agreed on Brazil, and I'd add England to that list. Don't mind Argies that much.

You'd be surprised.
