I am very disappointed. The world cup turned into euro

The positive side is that I'm now free to support Germany. They do have an impressive team, making football look both exciting and easy. I just didn't want a european to win.

Win or lose, there's going to be a party in Amsterdam... Those who live there in houseboats: especially if we win, I'd remove the boat before it's too late!

Looking forward to today's game.

I like both teams so I can't choose, they both have a beautiful style.

That's really worrying On the other hand, he was wrong two years ago, so here's hope he's wrong again.

They are given almost the same odds, with the tiniest edge for Spain.

I will root for the Germans, because of a personal inclination toward that country, and because the new team is so fresh and vibrant, surprising.

Spain has a more established game, very classy. In spite of the class they still use sledge hammers in the contrasts. Ahhhhh! Frisson de vielle fille.

Ouch! Spain scored at 70-80th minute, as usual.

So the psychic octopus was right again!

Congratulations to Spain; commiserations to Germany (who provided some of the best moments of the tournament).

For the final, I'm going orange (sorry to any Spanish members - it's that Northern European loyalty thing).

I could only watch the second half of the match, but I'm very happy since Spain played well, and the goal was a pure work of Spanish furia.

Congrats to Spain! Well deserved. Spain was the better team tonight. I would have loved to watch Netherlands : Germany next Sunday, too bad. Well, I think I'll just root for the Oranjes instead.

yeahh, I have a great final to watch sunday. In the Netherlands we have a song:

those germans are very silent, oh oh they are very silent.

Great to sing after all the comments in the press today in Germany.

Oh, I don't think we'll be all silent next Sunday. I, for one, will root for the Netherlands as loud as I can. Fingers crossed for an orange victory!
