the FINAL everybody in Germany has been dreaming of
is now VERY LIKELY to happen
I predicted that IF Germany beat Argentina in the QF
they would end up winning the Cup outright
irrespective of whether they had to play against Brazil or Holland in the final or had to play Spain in the Semis (or not)
------------------
from a German perspective this is a DREAM FINAL
we still want REVENGE for 1988 when Holland beat us in the Final of the European Cup in MUNICH
on OUR TURF
the Dutch still want REVENGE for 1974
when the MANNSCHAFT beat them in the Final of the World Cup, having previously OUTPLAYED them as well
to BUNDESLIGA fans this is a DREAM COME TRUE as well
ALL 24 MANNSCHAFT players earn their money in the BUNDESLIGA
so do the TWO KEY Oranje players: von Bommel and von Robben
von der Vaart, von Matthijsen, von Jong and many others also have Bundesliga experience
ditto von Marwijk
I said it before
Robben was 100% unimpressed by Oranje's victory against Brazil, just saying
" we did not come to South Africa to beat Brazil, we came here to become World Champions"
and yes, he said it in GERMAN as well
the international lingua FRANCA or rather lingua GERMANICA
when von Bommel was recently asked by German TV what he made of GERMAN FLAIR compared to the more defensive and laboured performances of Oranje he just said that the football they currently play was the football with which Germany had won all their tites in the past
and then he SMILED
Germany A vs Germany B
may the BETTER Germany win
