Review of the 2010 FIFA World Cup; By SC(+)PE :D

This years world cup was a very surprising one.

Many of the heavyweights like Italy and France were knocked out in the first round, South Africa became the first host nation team in history to not make the second round, the Jabulani ball has been heavily criticized and has been compared to a supermarket ball, and the referee's have made many mistakes which means that FIFA will be considering Video Technology.

I was disappointed this year. I had hoped that Europe would dominate once again, but after the group stages, South America was dominating for the first time in a while. But it wasn't just this. Many teams were playing really bad. The climate was very different to places like Europe and it was taking its toll on everyone.

After a matter of days, it came down to 4 teams... Germany, Spain, Uruguay and Netherlands. With the Netherlands as hot favorites to win this World Cup, and Germany just behind them, it seemed that everyone knew who would be in the final.

The Netherlands beat Uruguay 3-2 despite a come back, sending them into their 3rd World Cup Final.

To everyones surprise (except that psychic octopus) Spain was able to beat Germany 1-0 after a beautiful header by Puyol send the Germans packing.

Germany was able to settle for 3rd place for the second consecutive time, but they will be heartbroken that they couldn't get any further.

The Final is on tomorrow at 4am. Both Spain and Netherlands have never won a World Cup, and this was Spain's first ever World Cup Final.

My bet is that Spain will win this World Cup (not because of the octopus) but the Netherlands will not go down without a fight, meaning that this is a tough one to pick.

I will end my review when the Final is played, and I will rate how I think the World Cup was.

The World Cup is now over, and Spain are the new World Champions in 2010. Was I surprised? No. Everyone expected Spain to win and that was the outcome.

In the end, the world cup wasn't a disaster. It was actually very entertaining and very successful for South Africa as a nation.

I rate the 2010 FIFA World Cup: 8/10

Ahahaha! The psychic octopus, it's guessed six times and all of them have been correct.

There has to be something about that octopus, cause 6 out of 6?? That's pretty good for an octopus.

I'm recording the grand final on my PS3. :)

And I hope Spain will win!!

I always thought they were a strong team, but it seems this is their first final.

The World Cup was alright, but not the best. I really didn't like the group stages, it was so boring, although I have to admit it did get a lot better in the knockout stages.

Glad Spain won it, Holland played like crapola in the final.

The final was not as entertaining...wait let me rephrase that, it was pretty unentertaining as world cup finals go, for me anyway. Spain really did dominate the game throughout, though I must admit a lot of the referee decisions were more favourable to Spain.

I rate it a 6.9/10 - A lot of blatant poor refereeing, and a few bland games, though the Germany and Argentina games saved it through their scoring rampages.
