Well deserved win for a superb Spain today. Germany with too many unforced errors, something that hasn't happened before in the tourney...

If Spain plays like today, Netherlands will also have a really hard time. But probably Robben will do better than Podolski today...

In a serious attempt to claim the most trivial remark of the century:

Any team clinching the WC final can win it.

Having said that:

Go Holland Go!

I'm not sure if there were many mistakes so much, more there didn't seem to be much urgency/ideas until the end and the majority of the forward motion came from Jansen down the left.

Spain haven't lit anything up with their form but they've stumbled into the final. Hopefully the final will be a cracker as, on the whole, the quality of this world cup has been a little disapointing.

There will definately be a first time world cup winner

Finals are always boring for the neutral spectator.

Considering the playing styles of both the Netherlands and Spain, the final will be an incredibly dull, low scoring affair.

But if we win, I don't care about that at all..

I wholeheartedly agree! Spain played very well, and the German players made many mistakes because they were under huge pressure.

Oh, 89 minutes of boredom for 2x 30 seconds of Robben doing magic is well worth it......

You mean you actually like seeing Robben flop to the grass as soon as an opponent is even in his zipcode?
