Brazil has been sent home by the great French team under the command of Zidanne, just 15 minutes ago! The French team defeated the HOT Favourite side 1-0 in the Quarter finals of the FIFA Worlcup 2006.For me its a good news as i strongly favour both the German and Italian teams,both these European teams are my favourite but i mostly favour Italy much and am very much willing that this Worldcup goes to Italy,on the other side Germany is also in my hot lists. Since Brazil is out of the tournament,i dont think that for Germany or Italy, France will be a very tough competitior, though the French team did very well to defeat the World champions but they are not as good as the German forwards and the Italian defenders! Remember to say one thing, Italians have not conceeded even a single goal so far from the opposing players and teams, the only goal scored against them was the own goal in the match against USA,and that is the only goal scored against them , rest the Italian defence is as good as the walls of Troy and that will be a tough job for the Germans to strike down there walls.Best of luck to Italy and to Germany,besides we expect a good gameplay from Portugal and France.
