For patriotic reasons, I'd like to vote USA but I think it's unlikely for the men. So, for ethnic reasons, Italy or England, and I like Italian food better.
There is only one real World Cup, and Rugby sure as hell aint it...
Must be the Field Hockey then. The championship has just finished in The Hague. I notice the Dutch women are world champions again along with the Aussie men. Both finals were Netherlands v Australia!

I thought the world cup was in 2015.....the one where you run around for 80 minutes pretending NOT to be injured as opposed to the one where you run around for ninety minutes pretending to BE injured

I have never understood why people who dislike the sport have to waste their time in a thread about the sport and attempt to ruin it for those that enjoy the sport. Same story in every forum.
And on to the topic...
Great dominating performance by Germany today.
Great start for the USA as well.

Can't complain about an early goal. Now, defend it or keep attacking, I'm not up on the U.S. playing style.

Wow, now that was a German Blitzkrieg and well done USA!
Great job from the Mannschaft. Showed those pesty Portugese how to play a game of football.
I'm voting for the Germans against the Dutch in the final. May the best team win.

Glad Belgium will not go home empty handed. Good second half.

I'm thinking Brazil is not as good as everyone wants them to be.
After the 1st week of play I think the 3 teams with the best shot are Germany, Netherlands and Italy.

Yea, I read an article online that said FIFA is desperate for Brazil to win. I'm not saying fix, but I think for the negative P.R. image Brazil is getting away from the games.

FIFA wants Brazil to win because of ticket sales, to overcome the bad publicity and because they are afraid of riots.
It was obviously true in how they called Brazil's first game.
As a team though Brazil is not very good this year. I hope FIFA does not make a farce out of it.
Brazil were poor today. Didn't seem to be any desire from them, especially Fred...
Wouldn't mind if the German's win as I have them in our sweepstakes so I'd win £50. Be nice to see the Dutch win though as they haven't won it before.

Me too David. I was just looking around to find predictions of who would win and for the first time, I found out how much it cost Brazil to host this. I can now understand the protests.
