The World Cup semifinal is tonight and the Italian press have forced FIFA to reconsider video showing a ?punch? thrown by Thorsten Frings against Argentina... the result is a late decided suspension of Frings just in time for the semi... Munich has been crazy since i woke up this morning... can't say I am a supporter of Frings, as I am still bitter about his (not whistled) handball against the US in the 2002 worldcup quarterfinal (vs USA).
On the one hand, i would like to see the Germans beat the Italians as this will make the final that much more exciting and my wife that much happier... on the other hand, an Italian win guarantees a nice reply for the next 4 years directed at every German who gives me a hard time about the lackluster US performance. ("at least we were good enough to tie the Italians... with only 9 players as well")
My prediction is 2-1 for Germany in extra time.
I have a funny feeling that Portugal is going to slip into the final after tomorrow's semifinal... Deco will return to the lineup and the Portuguese defense has really played well. My prediction is that Christian Ronaldo will score early, leading to a 1-0 Portugal win.
