Karpman said: So Brazil 2014, won't be surprised if Spain takes that one as well, especially since quite a few of their player are still young and can improve, but the same can be said about Germany's squad. On the others side some teams are going to have a complete change due to the age of players like Italy, no Buffon or Pirlo. Buffon will play, that's 1, but you're most probably right about Pirlo ok, 2014 - won't be Spain's win I can guarantee it will be Brasil anyway, they have everything you know what I'm talking about if you watched their last 5-10 games at least they're definitely improving and it will be no surprise if Brasil wins |

Legendre said: Jack_Rav said: 4-0. What boring football, eh? (!) Sarcasm aside. It was boring for me. It's the same reason I don't like watching the first round of a tennis tournament where Federer or Djokovic, etc. stomp their opponents. Why in the world would I want to watch a game where the other team offers up little competition? In short, 4-0 is a stomp, and I don't like watching stomps. It's amazing to watch from a purely objective standpoint though, as I'm sure that quote was referencing. This Spanish team is among the best ever depending on who you ask, and if you are a fan of Spain, then surely it is amazing to watch. I agree with almost everything y ou said there.. :) |

No one should calling that right now. |

No surprise with that guy being anticipated as the next world class player, that is probably the only thing I love about Spain, their teamwork, always able to find a player and the passes Xavi/Iniesta sometimes give are good, but the slow, patient football is its downside (to watch, anyway) Would love to see a Brasil vs Spain final though, probably is going to come too, Messi isn't that amazing for Argentine. well, Missi is quite good but the fanboys are plain stupid for saying that "hurr durr he doens't have anybody to play with and he plays as a playmaker" - nope. stop this shit: Zidane '98, Zidane '06 - and shut the fuck up (obviously not meant for you, just saying) anyway on topic - Brasil will most probably win, but they have to take Ronaldinho as well. No nostalgiafag, it's just: that guy's got the experience, that guy can inspire a team, which neither of their players can do that right now |

| I think Argentina will have a strong out this time, provided nothing major happens to their key players. Messi's been ridiculous lately (for Argentina, not just Barca), and Aguero/Higuin have both been steadily improving. I know their defense is shaky, but I think their attack will be enough to see them go far. Also, Neymar has a lot to prove before anyone should start considering him as one of the best. |

| Great. Now we'll have casuals competing to suck up their asses in shallow admiration for another two years. Justified, sure, but hella annoying. Italy was the better team in the first half and it was unfair that Spain got two goals even if they made such good use of the opportunities they got. The second half was a mess and Italy just stopped trying halfway in. Not too difficult for Spain to score when they're playing versus static objects. |

Italy was the better team in like 20-25 minutes of the first half, in the first 15 minutes it barely appeared and in the last 10 minutes it sort of disappeared again. |
| All I have to say is that I was expecting a much stronger Italy. 4-0 was too much. Boring. Portugal should have been in the finals, they played so awesome. Worldcup 2014...my predictions: QuarterFinals: Brazil, Spain, France or England & Portugal. Anyway Ill be rooting for Germany and Portugal XP |

| Italy the better team um wut o_O no doubt they're good and they had their chances but they couldn't capitalize on some opportunities and the way Spain was playing, it was only a matter of time before they started scoring. |
