I honestly think it will be Germany and Spain in the finals.
I take nothing away from Russia and Turkey, they are solid teams.
And who knows I may be wrong, but I just feel G & S are just too
strong.
They should be good matches either way though and I'm really
excited to watch them. It kind of sucks having to wait a few days
for the matches, I'm so used to having this tourney on daily.
Make no mistake, no team has "nothing" to lose.
Every team has something to lose, most notably pride and that
is a very strong factor. You don't want to be the guy who lets
down your entire country.
Like the players who missed those PK's, that has to be one of
the worst feelings on earth.
Every team will be nervous, but some have been in these situations
before as a team and others haven't.
