Been wanting to post about the World Cup, but somehow keep forgetting... Going to watch the match early tomorrow morning, Germany vs Spain.. The two teams are so evenly matched i dun noe who would win.. Feel both have a good reason to lose..
Germany
Have been on form.. 8 goals in the last 2 games against the likes of England and Argentina...
Swift counter-attacking play effectively sealed their fate, but i feel that this tactic could actually backfire against Germany.. Spain DOMINATE possession, they are going to find it hard to gain the ball.. Furthermore, England and Argentina are not in the class of Spain.. England was never convincing throughout the W.C.. Rooney was a wasted slot, Barry was not fully fit, Wright-phillips provided nil contribution... Terry was more interested in gaining captaincy then defending... To put it together, England were never ready.. Germany just FINISHED them.. Argentina, on the other hand, was a favourite after the first few matches.. Few managed to actually spot that they had a relatively easy route.. But, i feel and know Argentina was weak... They attacked all the way against teams and chalked up big wins.. They did not meet any world class strikeforce till Germany.. Also, no one managed to actually realise that Argentina defence was WEAK.. No big names killed them effectively... Otamendi instead of Zanetti.. Wat was Maradona thinking... Argentina played with 4 people, Mascherano, Messi, Tevez and Higuain...
Spain
World no. 1.. Favourites to win... Can dominate possession and have many players with that killer pass.. But currently not on form... Unconvincing victories against all teams, and scraping out wins.. Not the Spain we noe.. Failure to take chance may result in elimination, especially against a team like Germany.. Keep Villa away from the ball and Spain look toothless.. Drop Torres away, Busquets too!! Frabegas and Navas in, and Spain may finally look like European champions
Think Spain may win by putting in the performance of the tournament..
Sian la, dun wan study for test tomorrow le.. Physics i pass happy, math got 1 mark i celebrate....
Geog ah... I dun noe.... Walk one step see one step.... Lucky no training tomorrow for me cause i got GEOG... Very tired.. Fatigue level to the MAX!!! Totally no motivation, no inspiration...
If only i could turn back the clock....................... I would take my chances....... Not let it slip away just like that........................ I promise I will............. If only you will wait..............
Love,
