Jan Roskott joins in before Netherlands plays its biggest match since 1974 and may be this time they'll go all the way. Jan has a positive feeling about Netherlands's but is holding back the celebration until the final whistle has been blown. Both teams in the finals, Netherlands and Spain, are well matched against each other. Both have an attacking midfield and a strong defense. So it might all come down to the strategy that the coach's adopt on the day.

Football World Cup 2010 - Germany - Spain Review
Written by Aditya MhatreArunava joins in to review the games post semi final of the Football world cup 2010. The young german team finally went down 1-0 to a goal scored by the Spanish defender but whats next for the German team? The game saw a very different German team. They lacked what got them into the Semi finals - the sting in their play or it probably was Mueller's absence?

Was there any good reason why they had to give us one more reason to cringe at love stories? Sure, I hate luv storys makes for a decent date flick, but it's not perfect and neither is it the kind of imperfect which is out and out enjoyable.
