Soccer World Cup 2006: What is your favorite team? - Who will win the cup?

Hey,

lets talk about the soccer  cup, your favorite team and your opinion about the possible cup winner.

I support Germany and England (a lot more Germany but also a bit England). But I don't really think that both of them have only few chances to win the cup. 

My tip is Brasil…what is yours?

Ok first of all I  live in Germany, so i think – of course – that Germany has got a chance…  But my favorite team is Brasil and I think they will win again this year.

Hi,

How could it be different this year? Brasil has the most impressive team. I think that the others teams will fight for the second and third step of the podium, unless ronaldhino hurts in the next few days… and misses the competition.

To me, the challengers are: Tchequie, Spain and Argentina.

Read-actor, are you planning to watch some matches at the stadium? If yes, wich one(s)?

I'd like to watch a match in the stadium, but the tickets are too expensive and it's very hard to get one.You have to have much luck. If I had a ticket, then it would be nice to have one for a german match.

I guess I'm going to watch some matches on a big screen somewhere with many people. That will be nice too.

Most of the matches I'm going to watch on TV with friends, beer and chipsTongue out

Of course, it's one of the best way to watch a football world's cup match… I'll do the same with my friends. It'll be cheaper too. By the way, I find it's ashamed to charge a ticket for the stadium as the organisers do… It's awfully expensive… But it's not typically german, it's anywhere like this, as soon as a big event goes on (olympic games, football european championship, ...) . Too bad. I think that everybody, wathever his standard of living is, should be allowed to go to the stadium and should enjoy a great moment of football for a modest price… But I'm definitely dreaming!

Hi Rita,

 

Where and who will you watch the brazilian matches with? Are there in Brazil some nice places that you recommend in order to encourage your national team?

Is the brazilian nation confident in it's team?

Brazil is really the best strong team, but i think the contest will have some variables and be very violent. German is the host. The host advantage will lead them into fight-off. If they have good situation, maybe the cup will be held by them.

Germany can win of course but i don't think the same. Last world cup we won only against bad or middle good teams. but this year we have changed our goal keeper (oliver kahn was much better) and we have to play against better teams so i think we haven't got a chance!!!
