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?

Brazil won the world cup in 1994. Before that, he had won this title for the last time in 1970.

If you add up: 1970 + 1994 = 3964

Argentina won the world cup for the last time in 1986. Before that only in 1978.

And 1978 + 1986 = 3964

Germany, though, won the world cup in 1990. Before that, Germany won in 1974.

Look: 1990 + 1974 = 3964

This could lead us to guess the winner of the World Cup in 2002, since it should be the winner of the 1962 World Cup (In fact 3964 – 2002 = 1962).

And Brazil won the world cup in 1962! (And, in fact, Brazil won the 2002 WC)

This numerology seems to work…

And now, who would be the winner of the 2006 world cup?

Let's see, 3964 – 2006 = 1958

And who won in 1958?....

Oh, Brazil did!!!

so winner wil be brazil

Hai Rita Reis ,

 I was so tense when the game between Argentina and Ivory Coast. Because the possession of Ivory Coast is greater than Argentina. And i was sooooo tense because of Carlos Tevez and Lionel Missi are missing in the team. But anyhow without these two kingkong Argentina has won the match. Hail to Argentina…....................

The first weekend of the world cup is over and we had some nice matches. We already had two surprises – Sweden vs. Trinidad Tobago and Ecuador vs. Polen. England was also very weak. I suggested, that they would play faster and score more goals. 

Argentina vs. Ivory Coast was the closest match. Both deserved victory and the team with more luck won. But the group is very hard to play and we will see who goes further. My prediction is: Argentina and Netherlands – but maybe we will have another big surprise. I'm not 100% sure. Serbia and Ivory Coast are both very good teams. 

I'm a bit disappointed about the german defense. I hope they will improve their play in the next match against Polen. It will be difficult to play against a team witch is close to the edge. My prediction: GER 3 : POL 1
