Everything is set for Sunday South Africa 2010, closing the curtain with a new champion , a champion from the point of view, is renewed competition in recent years had seen as Germany, Brazil, Italy, France and Argentina in the finals from 1970 to 2006.
And although not named in Uruguay and England, is because since the 70's these teams have been present in the final stage of the competition where Germany stands out with three consecutive finals (82-86-90) and Brazil equally with three successive finals (94-98-2002), Spain and Holland will resign on Sunday in Johannesburg who is the best in the world, and although the story notes that Spain dominated the fighting between them, nothing is clear in a World Cup, where the pools came down and the surprises did not wait.
Spain to ratify their good time
For several years, has been ranked Furia Roja as a selection to play a final at a World Cup was always the favorite and went to the tables in the head when he fell in the second round or quarter-finals in the memory are the tears and the sorrow of Andoni Zubizarreta, Fernando Hierro, Raul, Fernando Morrientes, Emilio Butragueño, Joseph Guardiola and company. Iberian selection experiment a new change in his philosophy of play, and preceded by a cradle in the best league in the world, had not tasted the honey of winning the World Cup.
The first big chance came two years ago in Austria and Switzerland in the Euro where the Catalans responded to favoritism and won in a tight encounter Germany 1 to 0. The process had started it then coach Luis Aragones had worked, put aside as the emblematic case of Raul and bet for the young talents of several English clubs, the Euro resulted in a memorable, and although Aragones leave, the Federation English Football Vicente del Bosque contract and this continued with the pattern of its predecessor and the results were an unbeaten qualifying for South Africa, first place in the FIFA ranking and its first final in search of winning the title is missing in their showcases.
This generation gold reminiscent of the years 80 and 90, which is both hope and could not achieve the proposed goal, Del Bosque compiled a team looking for team play and put aside for individual differences, took advantage and wear down the opponent for his game and never lost control of it, the only trouble is that selection may have been their defeat in the opening game against Switzerland.
David Villa, Andres Iniesta and Xavi were the main focus of the scheme of Vicente del Bosque, without forgetting what was done by Capdevila, Pique, Ramos and Puyol in defense and security solvency and Iker Casillas in net.
Villa who signed with Barcelona Football Club before the start of the world is experiencing its best with five goals and seeks to be consecrated as the top scorer of the tournament and leaving behind his nearest rival Dutch Sneidjer Wesley matched with who walks into goals. The English team has achieved in its seven goals in six games, five of which are de Villa, only two parties have not scored and has been to Switzerland and in the semifinal against Germany will obviously be the main axis of attack and If Fernando Torres ends will be difficult to wake up this duo in the attack without forgetting that accompany Iniesta and Xavi.
options that Spain be crowned are enormous, in the last two years has been the most centimetraje selection has had on the media, that has raised expectations for his play and there is no doubt that times will not stop this power, Spain was to become the new star in the world, what was once Brazil, Germany, Italy, why not? perhaps not the red fury.
total football reborn
Johan Cruyff, regarded as the best player in the Netherlands revolutionized football in the 1974 World Cup in Germany, such striking allowed to call as the Clockwork Orange Netherlands, a team with an option to become a power, and it was two consecutive finals in 1974 and 1978 where they fall against Germany and Argentina, from where the Dutch football was extinguished and were the closest access to a final was in 1998 when Brazil, eliminated in a penalty shootout in the World won the fourth place behind France, Brazil and Croatia.
That generation that was formed from ending Cruyff and Frank De Boer, Patrick Kliuvert and company, was reborn in Sneidjer, Van Bommel, Robben, Van Persie, Kutt and company, is until now the only team that has lost so far this World Cup, so the chances of being the favorite in the final are high, but his opponent also comes with head held high and a favorite from the start of the World.
Holland had no such luck, no one did anything for the Europeans, were known to be a seasoned team with several stars at a good level, but since the last world have been on the road against teams that end have been involved in the final. Thirty-two years have passed since the last game he played Holland against Argentina in the World Cup final in 1978 in the River Plate stadium.
The feeling of taking off the label of "perennial" loser or "favorite to encourage" the tournament is about to end, the troops of Bert Van Marwijk, who leads the Dutch since the last Euro has just fallen into a commitment in twenty-eight times , so all areas have been screened and have grown weaker in the construction of attacking football and counterattack.
novice Dueling
Spain and the Netherlands staged an unprecedented final, who won his name written World Cup winners in joining Uruguay, France, Brazil, Germany, Italy, Argentina and England. The last rookie to win a final and it was France in 1998. It is also cup brings curious fact that they are European champions for the second consecutive tournament will be crowned for the first time outside the continent, the only team that was crowned in different continents was Brazil in 1958 in Europe, 1962 and 2002 America Oceania , he was about to touch the sky on the African continent, and also Europe and America who were matched with nine cups each, is now the old continent who dominate the competition 10 crowns by 9.
From 1930 to 1934, teams did not face debutants instances of the end of a World Cup, obviously because 1930 was the first World Cup and had a starring Argentina and Uruguay, in 1934 it would behoove the turn of Czechoslovakia and Italy meet in the maximum shock, since in each edition of the World Cup final starring in a championship team against a rookie or two championship teams as was the case in Italy and France in 2006.
duels in history two teams have met nine times, with Spain being the best has left standing with four victories, the Netherlands has three and both are tied for eleventh pair occasions.
Remember that these selections were the only ones of the 32 who were in South Africa who qualified undefeated, remembering what has been achieved by Brazil in 1970, majoring in Mexico and Germany in 1982, when the World Spain went undefeated and their only defeat in the final against Italy.
