            Germany made a huge mistake by relying on the counter attack. They allowed Spain to control most of the game and hoped to catch them on a counter attack but Spain prepped for it.

            I don't think Holland will make the same mistake. Should be a great final.

            I do think I was the only one to pick Holland as surprise winner of the World Cup at the beginning of this thread

              I don't think even Thomas picked the Dutch to win it all

                      It would be akin to me predicting the U.S. would win the world cup....only difference is the Netherlands had a very real shot from the very beginning; the U.S. had a very remote chance.

                      I still would have liked to have seen the U.S. beat Ghana, Uruguay and face the Netherlands in the semi-finals.

                      The U.S. did well winning their group, just wish they would have made a bit of a run as they should have in the knockout stage.

                      Routing for Holland all the way!!!

                          Holland has been in WC finals before...they have the pedigree...USA does not (neither does Mexico).

                          Not even close...we shouldn't even mentioned those countries in the same sentence.

                              I don't think I'll remember what you just said...in FOUR years from now...a lot of things change in FOUR years.

                                Truly, anyone could win. There are so many intangibles, and in a single-elimination final you never know what might happen. I'm still going for the Netherlands.
