As the World Cup reaches its final phase, the excitement grows exponentially. The quarter finals are about to start in a couple of hours. Of the eight teams 6 are European and 2 giants from South America. The ties give an indication of tremendous action about to begin. In the past 56 matches we have seen some amazing goals being scored, some great performances and some heart-breaking exits. Of the teams that couldnt manage to make it to the "viertelfinale", I personally miss Austrailia, Ghana, Czech Republic who definitely deserved much better deal. However since only 8 teams can be selected we have the best of them. Now lets see, how these teams fare from here.
As the 1st quarter finals kicks off, there will be intense competition between the two most promising teams in the tournament so far. It will be a pity that only one of them will make it further. Both Germany and Argentina have scored plenty of goals so far. Will the host nation take advantage of its home conditions or not, will the German supporters in Berlin see their team in finals or not, only time will say. Among the other heroes battling for glory, we have Brazil meeting their nemesis Zidane and his France in Frankfurt. A repeat of the 98 finals is anybody´s guess. Its too difficult to say at this moment, but after seeing the performance and composure of Le Blues against the Spaniards, Ronaldo and Co are not going to have an easy song. England have an advantage against a depleted Portugal. The Azzuris are surely looking ahead for their Semi-finals, but can Shevschenko upset their plans? I am keeping my fingers crossed!
