Netherlands is in; Spain and Germany will face off for a spot in the final.

The Ducth pull off a victory and now wait for their rival between Germany and Spain.


They came as not favorite to win much, they won and they still weren't favorite to anyone besides the nation of Uruguay and now they finally get stooped by the dutch. Uruguay fell 3-2 to Netherlands today. The un-defeated Netherlands win them a place in the final of the World Cup this year, but who will they play against Spain or Germany?

SPAIN: La furia Roja has all the weapons to win the game. However they have not  proven it against Portugal or Paraguay in the knockout stage. Will Fernando Torres finally score for Spain? In point of view Vicente del bosque needs to make Barcelona's PEDRO the starter for this encounter. In the middle he should add Fabregas and not move the defense because they have been having a good World Cup. If XAVI can find the forwards and David Villa play on the wings than I think Spain has a good chance on being on the final.

	Paraguay	0	:	1	Spain					-
	Spain	1	:	0	Portugal					-
	Chile	1	:	2	Spain					-
	Spain	2	:	0	Honduras					-
	Spain	0	:	1	Switzerland

Spains activity in the world cup 2010
GERMANY: The Germans were a favorite to make it to semi finals but can they make it to the Final? or will they settle for a 3rd place seat again like in 2006 when they were the home team. Germany doesn't really needs to do anything the formation they used against Argentina was perfect and if Thomas Muller can lead the young Germans into a good game it could Germany in the final against Netherlands.

	Argentina	0	:	4	Germany					-
	Germany	4	:	1	England					-
	Ghana	0	:	1	Germany					-
	Germany	0	:	1	Serbia					-
	Germany	4	:	0	Australia					-

Germany's participation in the world cup 2010

Can KLOSE lead the Germans into another final?

4 remaining 1 champion

 The Dutch were able to beat favorite Brazil Uruguay shouldn't be a problem or at least what statistics prove to be.


The 2010 World Cup is coming to an end, and only Germany, Spain, Uruguay, and Netherlands made it to the semi-finals. While the semi's don't kick off until the 6'th & 7th of July predictions or to be more clerical statistic overall winner of the cup is being spread all over the world. Will it be the favorite Spain to make it to the final, against an unstoppable Netherlands. Well to tell you the truth that's what it was looking like as soon as the knockout stage had begun. The German squad however is looking dangerous meanwhile on the other side people are doubting the Uruguayans to pull of a victory or even capture a 3rd place spot. However its anybody's game. Ghana already shocked the world getting as far as they could.

If you ask me I think Uruguay is not much  a potential and especially now without starter Luis Suarez who got a red card in the game against Ghana. Preventing him to play against the Dutch. Since Uruguay will be battling for 3rd place they need to have in mind their going up against the 2 strongest countries in this tournament Germany or Spain.

A funny Vuvuzuela add

Cameroon out of world cup

Cameroon gets nailed 2-1 by Denmark and is now eliminated from the World Cup

In group E Cameroon is the first team to face elimination from the world cup, as the Denmark squad aced the 2nd goal on Cameroon in the 2nd half to finish Cameroons participation. Netherlands leads the group with 6 points and is basically already qualified with Japan, Denmark behind with 3 points each.

Nobody thought it would have Cameroon to be eliminated first but that's soccer, and now it comes to
Japan vs Denmark. Winner of that game goes to the next round against group F first place winner which could be Italy, Paraguay, Slovakia, New Zealand. 

For the Cameroons they play Netherlands to finish off their participation in the world cup but it won't seem to matter if they win or loose.

Portugal's Ronaldo vs. Ivory Coast's Didier Drogba

The Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo is ready for the encounter against Ivory Coast for a group G show down

Cristiano Ronaldo has been turning heads before jumping to Real Madrid in 2008-2009, but can Ronaldo demonstrate the world his ability representing his country Portugal in Group G.


The Portuguese are not a favor to win the group as they are in group with one of the best and most favorite to win the world cup Brazil/


PREDICTION

 For today's game I select the Portuguese to win this match 1-0. Brazil however faces tomorrow the underdog of the group N. Korea which has no key players. For the Brazilians its an easy opportunity to sit on the first place chair today, but only if Brazil takes North Korea serious, once they get over confident the Koreans can score on the Brazilians.




 Portugal's activity before the cup

	International Friendly Games	Portugal vs. Mozambique	3:0
	International Friendly Games	Portugal vs. Cameroon	3:1
	International Friendly Games	Portugal vs. Cape Verde	0:0
	International Friendly Games	Portugal vs. China	2:0

Ivory Coast's activity before the cup

	International Friendly Games	Japan vs. Ivory Coast	0:2
	International Friendly Games	Paraguay vs. Ivory Coast	2:2
	International Friendly Games	South Korea vs. Ivory Coast	2:0

 Didier Drogba has scored many goals for Chelsea, in the Premier League (England) but can he do it for his country Ivory Coast in the World Cup 2010 against a difficult group Brazil, Portugal, and  North Korea.

Italy barely ties it, Paraguay satisfied

Italy's Daniele De Rossi ties the game against Paraguay for a final score of 1-1 ;group F

Paraguay shocked a lot of fans scoring against the champions Italy in the second period on a free-kick but Italy in the end walked out with a 1-1 tie.

Group F consists of Italy, Paraguay, Slovakia, and New Zealand. Tomorrow the Slovakian's will play against New Zealand and since neither Italy or Paraguay were able to win the chair for first place in group F waits. Will it be Slovakia or New Zealand. This is a very close game as both teams are ranked just about the same.

Unlike group C where Algeria's hopes for coming back are slim group F is anybody's chance for advancing to the next round especially since Italy is not playing at their best.

Many sports reporters say its because most of Italy's players are old, and don't play the same anymore. They have the experience true but it's not the same I agree. Take a look at Germany on Sundays victory; Most of the squad is below the age of 25. because I believe resistance wins matches not just experience.


In my point of view Italy passes to the next round 1st place, but could get eliminated in the first round unless they step it up.

Algeria needs a miracle to over pass England, USA with today's lost.

1-0 victory for the Slovenian; upset Algeria, and gives Slovenia not just a win, but the first place seat in group C


Algeria’s goalkeeper Faouzi Chaouchi is the latest goalkeeper to not be able to grab on to the ball during a game against Slovenia, when Slovenia's striker Robert Koren  kicked the ball from not far from the goal area which slipped right out of Chaouchi hands giving Slovenia the 1-0 victory over the Algerian's. This was the only goal of a 1-0 loss at Peter Mokaba Stadium 6/13/2010.

Is it the soccer ball's fault or both England's & Algeria's keeper fault? England's Robert Green made a similar mistake Saturday against the United States, when he had bad control of the ball.
After the game of Algeria and Slovenia, keeper Chaouchi put his face on the ground and tears shattered his face.

 Robert Koren makes the only goal in the encounter, which gives Slovenia the 1-0 victory.

Not only did Slovenia win their first world cup  match today, but are now sitting in first place of group C. The Slovenians are on top of England, USA, and Algeria on the very bottom.

The Algerians are practically eliminated already as they're next opponents are USA, and England.
