The final match is just an hour away. I'm freaking tired today, but I must - I MUST stay awake till the end of the game, it's the final match for goodness sake!
It's 1:45 a.m. now, I'm hungry and tired - but I must stay awake. O.O

Yaaaaawn...
The players will be going out in a while. The match is about to start!! The anthem songs will play in a while, can't wait for the kick off!
The match has started!
Shoot! Spain almost scored from a free kick! Darn it! It's as if I'm watching the Spain-Germany match all over again. Sigh~
Go Oranje!!!
What a great chance the Oranje missed! Argggh!
No score in the first half. Lots of yellow card is given in this match..
SPAIN WON!!
Sorry birdy, you predicted wrong!!!!

Spain vs Nedherlands Prediction
Tomorrow (July 12, 2.30 a.m. Malaysian time) will be the time where people from all over the world would sit in front of their telly to watch the final match of the World Cup 2010. It can be seen that Spain is the favourite team in this match. Even the so-called octopus psychic predicted the Spaniards would win the World cup.
So far, I watched few of the videos on how the octopus predict the next upcoming match - it always goes to the nearest box. If it is on the right side of the aquarium, it'll pick the box on the right. That's all I'm saying, I'm a bit skeptical on this matter. hurm~~
Anyways, it seems like after the wide-spread news on this psychic octopus, many people claimed that their pet could predict the match as well! Another wide spread news on a psychic pet comes from a neigbouring country - Singapore. The owner claimed that like the octopus, his parakeet predicted that Spain would win the semi-final match against Germany.
What is interesting tho, is that for the final match, while the octopus predicted the Spaniards, the parakeet predicted the Dutch to win the World Cup! This is a match I gotta watch with eyes wide open through out the game.

The bird or the octopus? We'll see it tomorrow - who has the better psychic powers.
The final match between Spain and Netherlands was indeed a game that no one should have missed. Was is fated that the Netherlands were to lose on this match? Although there were many incredible chances for the Netherlands to score a goal or two, it just seemed that despite how hard they tried, it was not meant to be.
The last minute goal by Iniesta (116' a.e.t) was indeed incredible. It happened at the right moment where everyone expected there will be penalty kicks, but instead a sure victory for the Spaniard that left no time for the Dutch to even the score. It was a perfect timing.
I am happy that for once Spain won a World Cup title and they deserved it! And it's hard to say this but here goes - Paul the Octopus was correct. Sigh.

Germany vs Uruguay
It sucks to watch the Germans playing for the 3rd place title against the Uruguay. I was hoping that the Germans would get into the final stage. It was predicted by the so-called psychic Octopus, Paul that in today's match, the Germans would win. In a way I'm hoping its prediction to be wrong, but at the same time I want the Germans to at least get a place in this FIFA 2010. Sigh.
8 more minutes till the game starts.
This match would be the last time that I'll see my Klose in World Cup. Sigh, hope he'll score few goals today in his last World Cup.
The Uruguay team is singing their anthem song now. And now it's the German's anthem. WooHoo, they are wearing their black jersey! Wish I could own that jersey, I bet it'll look great on me, LOL!
The game will start any minute now. Shoot, my Klose won't be playing in today's match!!
Whistle blows - The match kicks off.
10 minutes into the match - Friedrich almost scored a goal for the Germans! I hope Uruguay will win since Klose is not playing in this match. Please let the octopus be wrong!!
19 minutes - Thomas Mueller scored a goal for Germany! Damn!
28 minutes - Edinson Cavani scores for Uruguay!!! YAY~
When I woke up, the first thing my friend said to me was "Octopus is never wrong" with a smirk on her face. Damn you octopus!
Anyways, the final score for the match was German 3 Uruguay 2.
51' - Diego Forlan (Uruguay)
56' - Marcell Jansen (Germany)
82' - Sami Khedira (Germany)

Brazil vs Netherlands
This I might say is the most unpredictable match ever!
Personally, I was hoping for the Brazilian team to win over the Dutch. With players like Kaka, Luis Fabiano, Lucio and Robinho just to name a few; there was no way that this team was going home in this quarter-final match.
I was glad to watch that after 10 minutes of the first half, Robinho scored Brazil's first goal. I was confident that somehow Brazil would score another two or three goals after that. But 13 minutes after the second half, everything changed with Felipe Melo's own goal. The Brazilian team, it seems has lost their confidence and composure in the game. It was of course the second goal of the Dutch team by Sneijder on the 68th minute and Felipe Melo's red card that dimmed the chances for the Brazilian's team to regain back its dominance in the match.
Final Score:
Brazil 1 Netherlands 2
SiGh...
Another favourite team of mine is out, now I'm putting all my hopes in the Argentinians!

Argentina vs Germany
Germany sure kicked those English asses in yesterday's match. Those Englishmen didn't have the chance from the start, going against a team like GERMANY! Germany is one of my favourite team in the FIFA World Cup. Tho many of my friends don't like this team, I find them really inspiring, they way they play and their confidence.
The Argentina vs Mexico match was somehow predictable, there was no way Argentina gonna lose this match. This team is my current favourite. I like Argentina only starting from this World Cup. If you asked me who's playing for Argentina before the World Cup, I can only name Messi (because I saw him in the Astro commercials =__=).
Anyhoo, both of these super teams are gonna meet in the next match which is on the 3rd of July (10 p.m. Malaysian time). I can't wait to watch the match. If I have to choose between both teams, I would probably go with Argentina.
Go Argentina!
3 minutes into the game, and Germany scored! Tho Germany is one of my favourite team, in this match I am hoping that the Argentinians will win! I'm at the edge of my seat watching this match.
The Argentinians had 55% possession of the ball as of the 1st half, and they had many opportunities to even the score, but the German's defense was just too good! I think I might get a heart attack watching this match!
Ah~~ I just died when the Argentinian's goal was offside.
No more score from Germans please!!

._. Half time now ._.
The 2nd half of the game proved to be more nail-biting then it was in the 1st half. I'm still hoping that the Argentinians will even the score.
Oh no.. My Klose scored (68').. 2 for Germany. I'm torn apart.. ah~~
Ah~ one more score for the Germans by Friedrich (74')
Another score from my Klose (89')
Another goodbye to a team I hoped to win. Disappointed for two days in a row. Lucky for me I did not bet on this match. I sure would have bet for the Argentinians..
Spain vs Paraguay? Think I'll sleep on this one

Portugal vs Brazil
Tonight will be THE match!
Portugal vs Brazil - I wonder how will this match end.
With Kaka on the bench tonight, can Brazil win the match? Brazil's match with Korea DPR ended with 2-1 score, while Portugal's match with Korea DPR a week later resulted in a 7-0 score. Will Christiano Ronaldo get his second goal in the FIFA 2010 against the Brazilian team? Will the Brazilian team pull out a trick in this match to surprise us all?
I just can't wait for tonight's match!
12 hours to go!
I must say, this was not the game that I've been anticipating on. I was quite disappointed to watch that many chances were missed in this match. And I don't understand what's with all the yellow cards during the 1st half? A total of 7 yellow cards in the 1st half. Surprisingly, no yellow cards were given in the 2nd half. I'm not sure what is wrong with the referee.
As the game entered the 2nd half, I was too tired to watch. No goals, no surprises.. *yawnnn*
FINAL SCORE:
Portugal 0 Brazil 0
All in all, I'm glad both team managed to enter Round 16.
Hopefully Spain's match with Chile will be much better than this one. Looking forward to Spain!!!

Portugal vs Korea DPR
This is the most amazing game in the FIFA 2010 so far!
I nearly fell asleep watching it during the first half, but come second half, I was sitting at the edge of my seat watching Portugal had their goal frenzy! After assisting few goals and few attempts, Ronaldo finally scored his first goal in the FIFA 2010.
Go Portugal!
Can't wait to watch Portugal vs Brazil!
Final Score:
Portugal 7 Korea DPR 0

Portugal vs Cote D'Ivoire
This was one of the matches I've been anticipating to watch.
The match for me was tiring, with Cote D'Ivoire on the attacking side while Portugal was more on defensive side. I was really looking forward for the Portugal team to attack and score at least 2 goals. But throughout the game, it can be seen that the Cote D'Ivoire was really attacking with all they have and their defense was tremendous too.
Final Score
Portugal 0 ; Cote D'Ivoire 0
I'm looking forward for the next game, Brazil vs Korea DPR. I don't know what to expect, but I'm hoping Brazil will score just like the German team did.
BRAZIL!!

Japan vs Cameroon
It is currently the half time of the game. Japan scored 1 goal through Honda, it was a a smooth goal indeed. Throughout the first-half, Japan seemed really defensive whenever Cameroon is on the Japan's side of the field. After scoring the first goal, Japan seemed more pumped up and confident.
The second half has began.
9 minutes after the second half, Cameroon had a really great opportunity to even the score. It seems like in the second half, Cameroon is taking every opportunity to even the score. The game seems more tight in the second half, so far few attempts were made by Cameroon to get a tie score.
I hope Japan would score another 1 goal. Go Japaaaaaaaaaaan!!!

Germany vs Australia
Yet another match to tune in to.
Germany has been a favourite of mine since I first watch the World Cup, that was like 8 years ago. Amongst my favourites were Michael Ballack, Miroslav Klose and Oliver Kahn.
But this year, only one of my favourites will be in the German squad - Miroslav Klose. I hope he won't disappoint me..
Go Germany Go!!

England vs USA
Ah, the match that everyone has been anticipated on in Group C of the World Cup - England vs USA.
My friends and I were all in the same team, England. And since we all chose England, we bet amongst ourselves how many goals will England score. I wanted to watch the match but my eyes were too heavy. I woke up at 4 am and my friend told me;
"England scored 1 goal!"
I was like, "Whaaaaat? I won the bet??!"
"Yeah.. Ugh.."
Hahahhaah, I continued sleeping with smiles on my face thinking 'bout the money I won. Hahaha..

South Africa vs Mexico
Ah, the World Cup has started, with the opening game - South Africa vs Mexico.
Before the game started, I made a bet with my friends, I bet South Africa would win the match. I only started watching the match few minutes before half time after I got off from work. That time both team haven't scored any goals yet.
I was at the edge of my seat watching the match 'cause Mexico looked strong and they were attacking more times than South Africa was. When South Africa scored its first goal, I was over excited and felt relieved.
Then, the unexpected thing happened - Mexico scored a tie goal.
*sigh*
I'm hoping France will win in the next match. I want to watch, but I'm bushed.. I hope I'll be able to wake up 2.30 a.m. today... =_=
