Netherlands vs. Spain. WORLD CUP FINAL 11/07/2010
Who's backing who then?
Here's a stat hopefully not posted before:
If the Dutch win, Sneijder will have won 4 trophies in 67 days:
- Serie A
- Coppa Italia
- Champions League
- World Cup
Not bad at all, eh?!

I think it would've been a cracking game if Germany had won the semi-final.
I'm not too sure now.

Not that I care one bit, but I think Holland will win.
I believe it will be the first time a European side has won the World Cup outside of Europe ?

I hope Spain lose, and are crushed in the most humiliating fashion.

Paul the octopus has predicted a win for Spain and Germany to beat Uruguay in the 3rd/4th Place Play-Off.

Great news. The money is as good as in the bank, then :D
(actually the laws of probability would suggest a Holland win :( )

I reckon and hope that Spain will win as Holland looked very insecure at times against Uruguay and their stars are more pompous, arrogant and tend to dive more.
Up the Spain!

Are you referring to the "the tossing a coin" principle where each event is unaffected by previous events?

Update:- Lucy, another octopus, this time in Portsmouth, has predicted a Dutch win! The tentacles are out for the battle of these two British molluscs (Paul was hatched in Weymouth).

My thoughts today have begun to dwell on what the atmosphere must be like in Madrid or Amsterdam this afternoon. We can only envy them from afar, and enjoy the spectacle as neutrals.
I hope the match is everything it could be, with the wealth of talent on display.
I think it will be Torres and Raina rather than Kuyt and Babel returning to Liverpool with with winners medals. It could be a classic match, so long as the atmosphere doesn't get the better of the players.

Its a world cup final. Therefore it will be drab and boring and decided on penalties/crap goal.
I hope im wrong.

What the hell is Howard Webb doing? Holland's game plan is to to kick the crap out of Spain and Webb is allowing it.
They could easily be playing with 9 after half an hour.

Agreed. But how Van Bommel has stayed on after 4 fouls that are clearly bookable is a bit of a joke. As they have said on the tv, it's only because it is the World Cup Final. Still no excuse though.

Spain = absolute class.
Absolutely brilliant football and the best team in the world by an absolute country mile.
Superb team. That is how football should be played.

One team tried to play football, the other just tried to stop them.
What a pity these highly paid sportsmen let themselves down in the biggest game of all.

If the Dutch had won, it would have been the death of the beautiful game.

Howard Webb was the real loser. Not the best performance, albeit in difficult circumstances. Directly responsible for the winner. :wink:
