    Interesting, Spain was linked to bribery charges pre-world cup for them to win. Spain wins the World Cup.

    I hadn't heard anything regarding bribing of this World Cup, though there was speculation that the Spanish FA was involved in bribery as they pushed to host the 2018 World Cup, though there hasn't been anything concrete to suggest it's true.

    Where's your source from?

    Well Howard Webb is certainly one man they didn't bribe, judging by his reluctance to send any of the Dutch off.
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    Congratulation are due I think. Great for Sara Carbonero (Nemo's mom as some say), cause she can't be blamed for a possible Spanish elimination now.

    The Spanish game bored me all the time. It's frustrating to see that honoured with a World Cup. However I admit their fantastic technical abilities and their kind of collective intelligence, something the German team is aiming at too.

    Oh what were we thinking the squid had spoken, he got a sadistic touch 2 minutes...

    But Spain deserved to win they played better and cleaner so here goes VIVA ESPANOL we had an easy start and whole lot of luck getting there, but no final's material yet.

    Spain played better and they deserved to win.
    Still it is a pitty that the referee makes 2 gross mistakes back-to-back that lead to the spanish goal...like I said they deserved to win but not like that....that goal just ain´t kosher.

    I am very glad the Ducth didn't win that, they should have had at least three red cards. Disgusting to watch.

    I only participated in the bracket prediction... guessing the actual scores of a match is woefully beyond me. :P
