i dont have a good feeling bout the korea vs germany game

If the final is played between Turkey and Germany this would be the most terrible final ever,two crappy teams!
So IMO Brazil or Korea may win this world cup,doesn't mather which one,two teams that played well during the world cup so both deserve to win

It would be a shame if Germany won the World Cup playing such boring football. I hope Brazil wins for the sake of the game! And they are getting critizised for playing boring too, but you cant compare with Germany. I´d even rather see Turkey win than them.

Where do you get off saying that the U.S. is an unskilled team? The U.S. beat Portugal too and we beat Korea if it wasn't for Agoos in the final minutes. We beat Germany too if it was not for their goalie, Kahn. I think they have proven themselves this year. They don't have a lot of experience and they still made it that far. Donovan, McBride and Mathis are going to be premier players. Korea will do well against Germany and I believe they have a shot at beating them, but I think Brazil will win it.

shame???? wtf.....soccer isnt all about offence ...there is also defense and the midfield battle and also goalie.....germany has all 3 of them....they have simply the best defence in the cup ...best goaly...and a strong midfield...... just cuz you dont have players like rivoldo and ronaldo that can mayb run down the field ,,,sorry to say soccer usually isnt that way soccer is played tactical and usually low scoring ...and that wins games ....Germany deserves to win this cup as much as every other team ...for you guys who say it would be a shame for them to win cuz they wouldnt deserve it well you guys obviously dont know what soccer is about or have played it its not about how many goals are shot its about controling

Hehe... I knew Id get flamed for saying that.. I think i need to explain a bit more..

Of course I know that football isnt all about offence. I come from Sweden for christ sake. And defence have always been our national teams strength. But that doesn´t mean I like it.
I, personally, appreciate attacking football a lot more than teams concentrating on defence. This World Cup has seen many the of European footballing superpowers go straight out of the tournament for concentrating on defence. Germany has succeded in their defensive tactics and have gone all the way to the final, although with a great deal of luck and much because their superb keeper Oliver Kahn. The games agains Paraguay and especially against USA was not really safe wins even the most german of football enthusiasts has to admit (like Kaiser Franz said).

I like to watch football beeing played with flair, technique and pace. Teams like Brazil, Argentina and France (not just talking about this WC) are entertaining to watch. I haven´t been entertained one single game by Germany, although I have to admit I missed their opening game. THIS is why I wouldn´t enjoy seeing them win the tournament. I think attacking and daring football should be rewarded, especially in this day and age where more and more teams seems to be focusing on defence.

Germany will have a hard time in the final without Ballack, who I really admire btw.

wow, being halftime, turkey vs. brazil is one of the best games i've ever seen! i hope turkey wins caz their level of play is amazing!

edit: well, brazil had more shots on goal and more opportunities while turkish players didn't shoot that often but rather tried to create a more dangerous situation. anyway, turkey showed some great level of playing, proving that they deserved to be in the semifinals unlike *cough* korea *cough*
