Is it a good thing? Spain won? Why we have to be happy with them? =.=

because it's good to see the best team win

Brazil is a team with BEST players, not best team.

Brazil has the best players? you serious?

so Lucio is better than Puyol? Kaka is better than Xavi + Iniesta? Robinho is better than Villa? Gilberto Silva is better than Alonso? Julio Cesar is better than Iker Casillas?

On the other hand, I do think Brazil's teamwork is much better than teams like England or Argentina.  But their players just suck so bad.

Don't know if it's because I am really tired that day, I felt the game is kinda boring...

Those who find this game boring better go back to watch NBA or NHL.  Football/soccer is not just about scoring.

Had Germany not tanked / threw their gloves in with the match against Spain, I'd definitely say the German team was much, much better than the Spaniards. Given the way the game was played, I really question whether that game was a fix up or not...

Rigged? Spain was way superior in every position.  Only noobs would think that Germany had any chance against Spain.  Soccer is not about how many goals you can score.

They weren't defending right. They weren't controlling the ball in the mid field, and they most certainly weren't shooting.

Do you really believe that Germany just had an off day? It's all about who you are playing up against.  Germany can play Spain 100 times and they will still lose 85 to 90 of them.  A lot of people who supported Germany simply looked at the results of their earlier games and deduced that they would crash Spain the same way but they had absolutely no idea how the spanish players are way more organized and technically superior.  That's how they lose money on their bets.

So in your opinion, I suppose the German victory against Argentina was just one of their "lucky days ...

Did you even see how Messi, Higuaine and Tevez played vs. Villa Xavi and Iniesta? Other than Messi, if you think Higuaine and Tevez are better than any of Villa, Xavi and Iniesta, that's just sad.

The way Germany played against Spain was EXACTLY THE SAME as how they played against Argentina, minus the absense of Mueller.  It's just that Argentina and Spain are two different teams.

The average age of the Argentine defense is 30 while the average age of Spain is 27.  That's half of the story.
