There are lots of reasons that countries produce great footballers. Sadly one of the main reasons is grinding poverty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarybubbles 1,173 Posted November 27, 2022 Germany are very lucky. If Japan had beaten Costa Rica, they were virtually out of the competition unless they beat Spain. Now they are probably just about favourite to go through, even if they lose to Spain, with one win and two defeats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've just put 50 at 14/1 on them to win the WC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shefcanary 1,260 Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) These two sides can't keep up the pressing all game, it's frightening how they are nullifying each other. Phenomenal work rates from the front players of both sides. Edited November 27, 2022 by shefcanary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 3,929 Posted November 27, 2022 Germany are lacking a couple of yards of pace to be effective, and some of their older heads are definitely on the way down. No disrespect to Füllkrug as he's having a good season at Bremen, but he's not exactly an outstanding Bundesliga striker, and especially compared to the likes of Klose and Gomez before him.
