Must say that brazil's defence is looking a bit shakey but their attacking capabilities are just too great. So I will say that they will make it fa sho....

I believe that Brazil will take it, but they better start organizing their defense better. An upset could be in the making.

Their offense is too potent for someone to upset them I think. Yea, their defense is average but their offense is so good that they'd just go down and score again. Germany would be a great match against them in the final though

All European line up for the semis now after France's surprise win over Brazil on Saturday. Of all the remaining teams, (Germany, Italy, Portugal and France) only the Germans have performed consitently well. France have picked up since the group stages and now face a tough game against the cheating Portguese coached by the Brazilian "big Phil" Scolari.

Germany to win. Home advantage should be crucial at this stage.

Wow - what a game .... and so much for the home team!

At this stage of the game, and given the remaining teams, I'm pulling for France. (Of course, they still have to get past Portugal today to win the right to face the Italians in the final....)

france italy final. Who would have thought. Man this is the craziest world cup. At the begining no one would have thought that france and italy will be the ones playing for the cup. There is no way I would have ever believed anyone who would have told me this a week ago.

Italy to win now.

This is a crazy World Cup. I thought for sure it would be a Germany/Brazil Final. With these teams I'd have to say Italy will win it also. If they do, that would give the US some more support since they did tie Italy earlier.
