Without that failed penalty from Ghana all my predictions for yesterday's games would havwe been wrong. Still, I can't see how Spain can fail to reach the semifinals.
I'm off now to watch Germany - Argentine with friends. What speaks for Germany is - that Argentine has won one ('86 final) out of five encounters with Germany during world cups. What speaks for Argentine is - that Argentine has won most of all games with Germany - that Argentine has by far the best individual player among the 22 we'll see soon - that Argentine has won the recent friendly match in Germany (and the 1:0 was only a poor indication of Argentine's superiority) - that Germany comes this year with weak penalty shooters
Whatever happens, please let that be a game without a colossal referee blunder or at least that he makes his major blunder in midfield play where it doesn't matter.
