I think Rahul dravid will do a good job as a goal keeper, because he has the technique to keep the ball within himself, the ball won't go anywhere. Dravid rocks (I think he is the only guy who can beat sunny's 60over 36 no record)

If you think u were being sarcastically humorous then, i guess u need to get a LIFE .
Everyone is talking about Germany that they will crush Spain like England and Argentina but believe me Spain is going to win ! I think Germans will miss the creativity and goal scoring abilities of Thomas Muller coz he has been inspirational throughout the world cup in not only scoring goals but also making brilliant moves for strikers like Podolski and Klose. Mesut Ozil will be alone in midfield and I think Bastian Schweinsteiger have to leave his job as a defensive midfielder to make good moves for Germany and help Ozil and Sami Khedira. Schweinsteiger is a HART of German team and without him German defense will totally rely on Mertesacker, who is the best defender in the world now but can't stop magical Villa-Xavi-Iniesta trio alone. He needs Schweinsteiger as a defensive midfielder (which he has been doing in this world cup) but without Schweinsteiger's creativity Germany also can't score goals, so Germans also needs him upfront!!!! What a dilemma for Germany !! So I think Germans will miss Thomas Muller badly and they will definitely loss 2-1 on Wednesday !

GOOD ANALYSIS ... ONLY ONE THING U MISS IS THAT ... UPTILL NOW ... SPAIN HAVE SCORED 6 GOALS IN TOTAL .. OUT OF WHICH VILLA SCORED 5 GOALS .. THEY ARE RELYING VERY HEAVILY ON VILLA ... AND ONCE THEY ARE GOAL DOWN IN FIRST HALF ( WHICH IS NOT HAPPENED IN PREVIOUS MATCHES WITH SPAIN ) ... IT WILL BE DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO COME BACK AGAIN ...

same thing goes with Germans too....and you must see one aspect also that Xavi and Iniesta was behind evry Villa's goal and Muller was a keyman in German scoring machine !

yes , muller absence is very imp factor ..still Germans have at least 4 other potential scorer including klose , podlski .. once Villa is marked well by german defense ,,,don't think ... other than villa ... anyone have skills to penetrate german defense ... other very imp factor ... is who will score first goal .. if germans do it ... german will surely seal the match ...which they are doing all the time ...

but they r susceptible against pressure as Serbia match has shown ! If Spain scores then it will b test of character for Germans. Also they will b in big dilemma for Schweinsteiger,who is there HART in midfield, to play him as a defensive midfielder or attacking midfielder. As far as there defense is concern Mertesacker is only world class defender they have thats why to support him coach Jokim Low played Schweinsteiger as a defensive midfielder in this world cup. Klose and Podolski are strikers not move creator like Muller. They want regular good moves and supply of good balls to score goals. Here they will miss Muller. Ozil is still a kid in this big match, he has just started his career although he is highly talented. So Jokim Low has to take a risk to leave the defense on Mertesacker alone and put Schweinsteiger upfront to 'CREATE' moves and here the Spaniards will take the game away from Germany coz they have all the players available and fit and you must remember that the Spanish midfilders Xavi and Iniesta are quite capable of scoring....n u r forgetting Torres who is due to score and now the stage is set for Torres to show his class !

WHEN WE SEE KLOSE PLAYING LIKE THIS ... IT REMINDS MCGRATH PLAYING HIS FINAL WORLD CUP IN 2007 ... KLOSE IS MOST DESERVING AND HATS OFF TO HIM FOR ALWAYS AWAY FROM STARDOM ... ALWAYS PLAYS HIS BEST FOR HIS COUNTRY NOT FOR CLUB ....
The Paraguayan team deserves respect for their efforts in todays game.
One of the cleanest defences of this world cup went down today to a moment of chaos...However what I have seen of their Spirit today, the Paraguayan National team, Lovingly called the Albirroja, wold be a force to reckon with in the future...
They behaved like gentlemen and Played like lions...typical of the Paraguay I know :)
VAMOS PARAGUAY....VAMOS ALBIRROJA!!
And yes....Good Luck to Spain as they go in to face the German Blitzkrieg!
