Well, it's no question which nation Becks is rooting for. After spending some great years at Real Madrid, he understands how important this trophy would mean for a country that has had complete teams every tournament, but failed to live up to the hype. No one can question Spain's intentions. Their defence has steppedup as one goal has been enough to win in several matches. Scary results to get for Spain, but they have held their own very well and has not broke under pressure after that shock loss to Switzerland in the opening group stage match. Very composed led by players like Carles Puyol, Xavi, and Iker Casillas, they never looked stronger and more united. But one thing is for sure, I said before the Germany match, but was proved wrong. This is absolute. One goal will not cut it this outing.
Netherlands have been known throughout history to have a standout offense, almost able to score at will with players in history like Cruyff and former manager Marco Van Basten. This year is no different with Arjen Robben, Robin Van Persie and Wesley Sneijder..but they defence has always been the Netherlands' achilles heel. Not anymore. Defence has been stable as all players contribute to getting back and aiding the back line. A team effort and good rotational marking can disguise a suspect D..can that be said about the Netherlands however? Sunday will prove everything and answer all the questions. Is Spain the best in the World? Can the Netherlands win without defence? No more secrets.. |
