I think Germany will lose the final now.

    Brazil were really bad in defence without Silva, and have had no significant presence in midfield or upfront throughout the tournament is the way that I have seen it. Too much reliance on Neymar. Germany are obviously good, but not seven goals good enough to hand out the same to whoever they meet in the final.

    In the last sixteen World cup finals, seven out of eight winners have been won by the team that had the best GD in the group stages (the other eight were tied). Germany have five and Argentina have three. Holland have seven. And if they win through tonight, will most likely be the longer 2nd fav which would tempt me to back them.

      Surely losing the game would have been worse

        On a more serious note I think it will fire them up to complete the job.

          Dont see it that way myself. They have basically had a practice match it was so simple, have been able to give key players a bit of a rest also and they get an extra days rest anyway.

          Argentina and Holland could well go to pens imo and be a really hotly contested match with no love lost.

          Germany are far too professional to get complacent because they thrashed Brazil. They kow like everyone how bad Brazil's performance was and their defence was non existent. They know the final opposition will be chalk and cheese no matter who they face.
