World Cup Fever is here. We are finally at the Semi Finals and what a great tourament it had been. I was sad with the demise of Netherlands but I was glad that it was done by the Portugese. At least they play much more attractive football than England. Let's just say that I didn't shed a single tear when they went out on penalties. I was just pissed that it took so long. The EPL is an exciting league but England always have a tendency to choose the wrong coach. I think the best they had in the past 2 decades were Sir Bobby Robson and Terry Venables. Sven was crap and this current team played like rubbish. Enough said.
I am surprised by the performance of France and to a lesser degree, Germany. France had defy critics so far with an old team but seems like red wine, they get better when they age. Zidane was simply breathtaking in the match against Brazil. Brazil went out on a whimper which is kinda sad when you look back on the talents that they had. Argentina was also a team that was damn unlucky to be knocked out. They were simply screwed by their own manager when it matter the most. Got a feeling that Germany or Italy might go all the way. Anyway, all four teams stand an equal chance. I will be rooting for Portugal. They play attacking football and another reason is I betted on them to win the World Cup when the odds were on $20. ;)
You can take a picture of something you see. In the future where will I be?
