World Cup - part 6

Interesting.... I got 2 right & 2 wrong predictions...

Uruguay v Ghana
Even tough Uruguay wins (as predicted), but I'm rooting for Ghana through out the match... I'm sad because they deserve to be in the semi instead of Uruguay... but then again, they did not capitalise on the opportunity they had... to me, this boiled down to experience...

Holland v Brazil
Brazil played well in the first half... but they start losing focus after playing with 10 men and paid the price... Congrats Holland...

Argentina v Germany
Both my favorite team & I had mixed feeling on the result... As mentioned in my earlier posting...this game will depend on how they perform during the game itself as I rate 50% - 50%... Germany played exceptionally well by mark-out Messi & employed a fast moving game... as a result, Argentina caught back pedalling most of the time... the score line is expected in such circumstances... Sorry Messi, you're still in the league of Maradona...

Spain v Paraguay
Nothing much to say, it went as predicted...


So now we gonna see Uruguay v Holland and Germany v Spain... Instead of possibility of seeing all Latin team in the final, we may end up seeing all Europe team final...

My pick, Uruguay v Holland... I would love to see Uruguay win but my bet will be on Holland based on quarter final performance... Uruguay fate will depend on how Diago Forlan perform...

Germany v Spain, it will be Germany if they can keep up with the kind of performance displayed against Argentina... Spain is a good team but it will be tough for them due to their dependency on few individuals as compared to Germany team work...

Anyway, the ball is round and anything can happen...Let's see...
