Yeah the penalty shootout was pretty nerve racking haha. Tomorrow I reckon Netherlands will triumph over Mexico and Costa Rica will beat Greece (Both by close margins)

I think Germany to go through to the final. They're too tight, and Brazil might struggle to create significant scoring opportunities.

Whoever wins out of Germany vs Brazil will go on to win it all IMO.

Missing Thiago Silva will hurt Brazil more than missing Neymar. But in a way I like the shape of Brazil without Neymar. Oscar will play the number 10 role (no idea why he has been deployed out wide by Scolari) and Willian/Bernard can replace Neymar out wide. Dante will replace Silva.

Germany didn't have the best game against France. Need to be more clinical in front of goal. I hope Germany win for the sake of Europe but it will be a close contest.

In Italian football, it is tradition to always take note of who is the referee. The ref of Brazil vs Germany will be the one who wrongly sent off Marchisio (straight red) and ignored the Suarez bite in the Uruguay game. So I wouldn't be surprised if we see some BS to protect Brazil. Hopefully Nicola Rizzoli or Howard Webb officiate the final.

I think we will likely see a German and Argentine final. Personally, i'd love to see a Brazil-Argentina final just for entertainment value (and i guess giving South America the stage for a tournament in South America).

A lot of people are still giving Robben shit for diving (including commentators) but lets be honest, he's not the only person to do simulation in these games (although i do have a soft spot for the dutch).

I think all the games here are going to be rather low scoring. I'm out of betting for the world cup after my run but for people i know who still are, they're really going for under 3 goals.
