Who do you think is going to win? I think Germany might win.
Always a top team, my favorite team to win but I have not followed football in a while
I heard they won 2nd place last year.
WC finals are played every four years, there are only two teams that have made it to all championships, Brasil and Germany, THE best teams. funny thing they never met each other in a WC Championship game until Korea/Japan in 2002 Brasil taking home the prized solid gold trophy (or so it's believed; champion gets a copy to keep 'til the next final, the original is well kept at FIFA HQ)
Last cup, held in Germany, they were favored to win it by a storm; home advantage, an awesome squad but the Italians took revenge; back in 1990, Italy hosted the cup and were left on the road, Germany took the prized title, controversy there since the referee (Mexican Edgardo Codezal ? was pushed to favor the Germans or else...) Argentinians brag about that penalty since they went home second place but when it comes to 1986 and the "hand of god" (notice lowercase) that everyone saw but the refs, they are well, so Argentinians...
BTW the French squad made it there by a similar hand of god but this god is named Henry, don't believe me? ask the Irish
Next cup will be held in Brasil, not to mention the Olympics !!!
Time for single or by then divorced, separated, etc. etc. etc. plan for a trip, the trip of a lifetime.
You book departure 2012 and return date 2014
