World Cup

So Im really not a huge soccer fan, I follow baseball a little closer and football only the Packers, but the World Cup in Germany is defiantly something worth following. I couldn't believe what I heard today when my friend told me that France defeated Brazil. Ive been supporting the German team from the start and hoped the Italians would get pretty far too. My sister however was rooting for a team from Latin America to win but after the shocking results of today her hopes have been dashed. Brazil was the power house coming in to the World Cup and many people thought they would take it. But that is all lost now after France beat the Brazilians 1-0. Itd be kind of cool if Portugal won but they play really dirty. No matter what, Im still rooting for Germany, and if they loose I want Italy to take it. The more upsetting factor is that on the fourth Germany and Italy play each other, I like both teams and as usual I have to work so I won't be able to watch it!!! Sometimes I wonder why I still have that job. True I still want Germany to win but thats a tough choice because over all I think Italy is the better team. With Brazil out of the picture the World Cup has opened up a lot more leaving virtually anyone with an opportunity to win. My sister has decided she doesn't care anymore becasue some European power house is going to win because Soccer is a European sport. I personally like the Europeans.
