The passion and excitement that is the signature of the World Cup finals will be with us for the next month -- so who will win the prestigious competition?
Brazil - The obvious favourites with a gang of talent and high expectations.
Germany - The host country got off to a good start yesterday with a 4-2 win over Costa Rica.
England - Escaped with a 1-0 win over Paraguay in their first match.
Argentina?
Portugal?
Italy?
France?
Spain?
Netherlands?
The underdogs? The upsets?
Let's hear from the football fanatics across the globe.

my favourite is Brazil ...they are the best entertainers in the field ...esp Ronaldinho
I like argentina too ...among the other teams i like individual players but as a team none matches Brazil 
i like the determination of the South Korean and japanese teams !
I am also going to root for the german team but as my friend from Munich said
" if the germans are going to loose the world cup its only because they are trying to be good hosts"
cheers
Anu

Good on you B0o ! and I agree with you, perhaps it is my Australian Patriotism shining through - but I will be glued to the television this evening when Australia play - may the force be with them!
I love the vibe, and watching the fanatics, and the awesome positive environment which comes with the good game of footy!!!!!!!!
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!

Brazil should guard against complacency. In such a tournament as world cup history doe'n't as there is no team so far that has retained the World Cup.

Actually, Brazil have been champions for a record five times in:
1958, 1962, 1970, 1994, 2002.
