    Well, word on the street used to be Brazil being the favorite. But if you go by their mediocre performances throughout the tournament, except for flashes of brilliance during the Japan match, I don't see how you can seriously view them as favorites. You're right, though, they ain't gonna win the Cup.

    I wouldn't be too sure of Germany winning against Argentina. The Albicelestes are on a role as well and their bench is incredible and more than a little daunting, especially when they're putting in goal magnets like Tevez and Messi into the game during the second half. And Germany has, so far, not played anyone well matched to them.

    Should be a great match on Friday, but it's going to be Argentina all the way.

    don't cry for yourself argentina! That will be a helluva game and a battle of two very different sides that are high quality. Germany is looking pretty strong as well and I am confident that they can shut down Argentina's offense long enough to sneak in a goal.
