i go with the germans.
they attacking option and cohensiveness will beat the spanish.
reason:
german strong in the air. but the spanish defensive partnership of puyol and pique will be expose( spanish weakest link).
attacking spanish on the left hand side. ramos is good defender, german will avoid attacking from the right ahnd side and concentrate their effort on the left.
german height superioty. spain has no threat from the air. the german midfield marshall by the hardworking 3-3-2-2 will provide defensive cover and stifle spanish superioty in midfield creativeness.
Buy german win!!!
Germans are riding high after two big wins and so mentally I would say the Germans have an edge.Anyway ways I want to see a repeat of 1974 final with the dutch winning this time.
Paul the octopus picked spain to win...
both the dutch and german are playing good cohesion football.
spanish although has many creative player lack the cohesiveness and a good defensive midfielder. i still believe the difference between this spain side and 2 years ago is marcos senna. he is replace by basquet. which although younger will find it hard to fight with schwasteinger too big to handle.

Calamari is served!
german to win.
Guys, guess the final score for this match.
German 1 : Spain 0
germany 4 spain 0
so what is Paul's the octopus prediction on spain germany match?
after the austraila..england n argentina match..now everyone favour germany to win the wc... see the odds at sgpool also know liao... when a ship gets too heavy.. it might sink...
germany is very strong but i still got a feeling spain might get lucky.
hmm.
actually england and argentina are overhyped as potential favourites for the world cup. argentina had an inexperienced coach and england, as usual, fail to sparkle at the world cup. Germany's secret weapon are their young players like ozil, muller, khedira and not many have heard of them before this world cup. I still fancy spain to beat germany because they have both experienced and young players as well, like iniesta, pique and fabregas.
and if im not wrong...germany keeper have not been really tested right.. argentina match the finish all so light... lol.
spain they been firing alot ( on target and off ) ... but always end up in 1 or 2 goal only. who knows this match they hit it right .
can be dangerous..
next world cup germany will be very strong but this world cup, spain will be the victors
hopefully...looks like only u n me think otherwise...not easy .. becos .... spain defence is cmi especially with that pique ...slow n blur...the more he play the worst he gets.
always f up.. in barce also like that in spain also like that... i still dont understand why and how he can pull that para player until like that.. gosh.~

Paul's didn't predict that he will end up in the pot after his prediction came true There are so many Argentine out there waiting to cook him.

poor Paul
Germany 2-2 Spain
Extra time 3-2 Germany
so paul and mani predict which side?
haha... and why nobody cares about another match.. lol.
No more surprise for me...my heart cannot take it. The final must be Germany vs Holland. Anything less than that, and I'm going to skip the final
nobody want to see URUGUAY in the finals men...well except the bookies n sgpool maybe..
and their odds rocket from $3+ to now $5.20 wow..
holland pls dont disapoint.. LOL if not ... hoho
since 2006 world cup was won by Italy, so 2010 the world cup not won by a south american team meh? it has been this trend since 1962.
Germany's Mueller is not in the coming match. Might be a big turning point.
If everything is correct, the final will be German vs Holland.
as i've said in earlier thread, the spanish can hold the ball for 89 mins but once they lose the ball for even a min they can expect destruction to be coming. a nice game to catch imo, will surely worth to stay up.
Spain Vs Uruguay final for me :x
