Despite the huge win over Brazil, I don’t think it will be as high of a scoring game as that. Both will play defensively and conservatively for the vast majority of the game. Goals will come from mistakes, and neither will make many.

I’ll say Germany 1-0

Sounds good. But I am not going into this with high hopes. I think it will be a pretty boring, tense game - God save us from a penalty shoot out. I am afraid the Germans will be convinced they have it, whether they know it or not, then get out there and get dispirited when Argentina really pushes and harasses them. Hopefully, they’ll show up focused with a lot of intensity, plus a little luck. I’ve had a lot of fun watching them so far, after Italy fell off. Argentina vs. Netherlands just about killed me. Dreadful. Let’s hope for a good game at least with no bad calls. And a German win. 😉

Here’s a little known fact for all of you. Did you know the Vatican has actually had an international soccer/football team??

They have and every time they play, they play Monaco. See above. They don’t play many games but they did play this year.

Other than the above webpage, I haven’t found much information on the Vatican Soccer Team.
 
I bet the conspiracy nuts are just going crazy over this. 😃

Go Germany!

Nice call on the score! You wouldn’t by chance have tomorrow’s lotto numbers, would ya?

Nope. That score got me $40 in our office pool. With my new found riches, I have little care for such piddling’s as the Lotto
