quarter final
in quarter final there are 5 former world champions (germany 3 times, italy 3 times, argentina 2 times, england once and france once) and 1 reigning champion (brazil 5 times).. 2 new potential teams are portugal and ukraine.. germany will play against argentina and italy play ukraine tomorrow, prediction: germany and italy win and will meet in the semifinal.. england will play against portugal and brazil play france: prediction england and brazil win and will play against each other in the 2nd semifinal.. interesting games to watch in quarter final would be germany vs argentina and brazil vs france.. not only that it is europe vs latin america but also both historical games bring back the memory of world cup finals.. 1990 final, germany played argentina and won its 3rd world champion..in 1998 final, brazil played france and lost 3-0 to give the trophy to zidance’s team as france 1st title as world champion.. this year 2006, my prediction says that last year final will be repeated and this time germany will beat the champion brazil and gain its 4th world champion.. it won’t be easy as brazil comes with an incredibly strong team and highly talented individuals: ronaldo, ronaldinho, ze roberto, roberto carlos and cafu.. but germany with ballack in the middle, lahm and schneider in the sideline, klose and podolski in front, shows highly remarkable play and really attractive to watch.. will see, may the best team win and hopefully it’ll be germany.. viva germany..
