Germans deserve second place, not Holland

Editor,

I want to make a few predictions. Firstly, Holland will be trounced by Spain. Its greatest moment was fluking Brazil and I think that they’ve outdone themselves by getting to the final.

While the final will not be full of goals, ball possession percentages will be totally biased towards the Spanish and, as we have learnt, if you don’t have the ball you can’t score. If you don’t score, you can’t win.

I was willing to bet that the Germans would have spanked the Orange in the final if they met. Honestly, I feel as if we saw the ‘real’ final in the semi-finals when Spain played Germany.

Its just too bad that Germany is playing for third place and not first or second. They deserved it, not Holland.
