Fox334 Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 I've been entirely unimpressed with Brazil so far, while Colombia has been stellar. I think Colombia will end the host's sufferings party. France - Germany is a toss-up as far as I'm concerned. Germany has played better opposition but France has performed incredibly well. I'm giving a slight edge to France on this one. By all logic the Netherlands should walk over Costa Rica. Of course there hasn't been much logic so far (see: Costa Rica) but I'm sticking with the Dutch. Argentina - Belgium is the other toss-up, IMO. Both teams look to have played bellow their potential so far, despite winning all four games. I'm going to go with Belgium simply because I want them to win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Rols Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 My predictions for the semi-finals: Colombia vs. Germany Costa Rica vs. Belgium That's my wish list too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faster Posted July 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 I want Colombia vs. Germany and Netherlands vs. Belgium. The Dutch vs. the Belgians would be an awesome struggle of the Lowlands. And well I do have Belgium in this pool thing. Plus it would represent a 75% of a new champion. If not Germany I would love a new not Greece-like champion. F-ck it. I am picking with my heart and saying Germany will beat France. Likely in penalties in a tight, close sporadically paced game. As long as I have been following football and Germany they seem to have issues dealing with African teams. And I just hate Benzema. The Martin St. Louis of football (Valbuena) is going to be physically overcome by the stronger, bigger Germans and Neuer is going to be the difference. LDOG I just don't know what to make of Argentina. I don't think they are as good as they were in 2006 or 2010. Messi is just so substantially better. I want Belgium to win. I have seen more promise from Belgium than Argentina but in a tight game Messi is the more likely to over the brilliance to get the win. No Argentine player as looked good without the aid of Messi. 4 Belgians have looked good from their own play. In all reality will will be sitting here talking about an Argentina-Netherlands semi-final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony E Loves Architecture Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 I reckon it will be: Quarter-Finals: Brazil 1-3 Colombia at the Stadium Castelao, Fortaleza. France 2-4 Germany at the Maracana Stadium, Rio De Janeiro. Holland 3-1 Costa Rica at the Arena Fonte Nova, Salvador. Argentina 3-2 Belgium at the National Stadium, Brasilia. I reckon Germany will Win the 2014 Fifa World Cup, Holland will come Second, France will come Third and Colombia will come Fourth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
