World Cup Finally Starts: One Winner
So the charade of the group stages is finally over and the crap teams have been punted so that we're left with the real beginning of the World Cup at the Quarter Finals stage.
Looking at the teams so far, we have the following QF outline:
Germany V Argentina
Undoubtedly the team of the tournament is Germany who have ruthlessly disposed of dud teams such as Poland and obliterated a Larsson inspired Sweden.
Then you have the Argies who were made to look ordinary by the Mexicans after looking invincible in the group stages.
Result: Germany win.
Italy V Ukraine
The Ukraine are crap. Italy are doing the inverse of what they do and will implode after exploding. Neither of these teams deserve to be in the semi finals, but if you were to take the flukiness that is Italy, you've guaranteed they'll get through winning on penalties after 0-0 AET.
Situation: Italy progress.
England V Portugal
England should fear Deco, if he gets the red card rescinded. This observer thinks he should be forgiven even though he is a diving, cheating swine. But, Portugal should fear a resurgent and inspired Beckham who looks like he realizes this is the final big shot. Add in the devestating Wayne Rooney, the world's best player, and you've got a recipe that will sweep Portugal away.
Verdict: England win.
Brazil/Ghana V France/Spain
Brazil will beat Ghana because they're Brazil. Spain will beat France because France are pathetic. Spain could be the tournament dark horses but that's said every tournament then they self-destruct, and this one will be no different. Brazil would beat Spain seven days a week.
Outcome: Brazil win.
This basically gives a semi-final setup to drool over:
Germany V Italy
England V Brazil
Germany V Italy is straightforward as Italy are a poor team. The Polish strikers Germany play upfront are the best there are (exluding Crouch, Rooney, and Owen). Klose is supreme and Poladski is awesome. They are duff at the back but Italy are woeful.
Verdict: Germany progress.
It would take a brave man to bet against Brazil at any point in time, and I'm not one who meekly follows the crowds. Ronaldinho is the instrument of doom with which Brazil will fail. I'm on record highlighting his trickery and ability are great entertainment for a circus but when the real deal starts he's posted missing, as most recently exposed in the CL Final. Ronaldinho had the opportunity to prove us wrong by signing for Man Utd but didn't, and he knows he wouldn't cut it against the best in the best league in the world. When Ronaldinho can't perform then neither can Brazil.
England have such power and immense talent that team spirit is the thing which will bring these things together to beat Brazil. Not only that, but, with all things being equal, statistically it is time for Brazil to screw up and this is their time.
Outcome: England win.
Final: England V Germany
The pressure will be on Germany to such an extent that Germany will finally crack. Rooney hat-trick and another 40 years of hearing about nothing else.
It's England's trophy.
