This surprisingly makes me feel a lot better

It comforts me a bit too, but just the idea of the fantastic team that beat Germany a few days ago comforts me a lot more!

Torres hopefully fully fit

I'm going to be blunt. I honestly believe he hasn't been fully fit for about 15 months now.

Also if Spain wins than New Zealand would be the only team who were unbeaten. That would be an amazing fact like Scotland at 74.

ITV call it Holland.

BBC call it ' The Netherlands'.

I personally opt for ' The Netherworld', to please both broadcasters.

isn't the Netherlands the correct name? Holland is like a nickname, no? I may be wrong.

I still want Holland to win.

A) They're more the 'underdog' team. At least from what I understand.
B) They beat Brazil, that's quite an achievement. Add 20 points to their Gamerscore.
C) I have a Holland flag in my room from years ago.
D) Spain spent a full 90 minutes on the field with Ronaldo and he survived, that's unforgivable.

Well, it was the BBC that called it 'Holland', and since they don't generally use nicknames...

The Netherlands is our official name, because it's the kingdom of the Netherlands. Holland was just another name, but used more often because it's easier to say.

And the Netherworld...no..just no...

The octopus predicted everything right 2 years ago as well, besides 1 match and 1 match only, guess which one.
Anyways, anyone getting hyped by an octopus "predicting" who wins a match should get checked out.

Though my opinion still stands that the one who plays the best should win.
