Why Spain will win World Cup 2010

Spain up until a few months ago was ranked #1 in the world. This is not by chance or favor, but because of performance. The European Champions have been one of the most consistent sides in the world for the last couple years.

Germany is playing well, but they do not have the collective experience to win a World cup Semi Finals against Spain. The hunger of the Spanish team along with their collective experience will have a profound effect on the Semi finals tomorrow.

Andres Iniesta, Carlos Puyol, Alonzo and the other Barca guys work very well together and they know how to grind out games. This will therefore be a conservative game, which is out of character but necessary. It will by no means be dull however, since both the Germans and the Spanish have complete teams. The team that concedes first will have the more difficult task of winning. Thus we will see a half pitch game, meaning that the end to end flow will be curtailed in pace and reach.

Villa Vs Torres is a non issue. Villa is the man in form and Torres is not his usual self so he will most likely start off the bench. Failing this he will be withdrawn if the advantage is not significant for Spain after the first hour.

In the final analysis, Spain will grind out the victory. There is a strong possibility it will go to the extreme, not only due to the strength of the Germans but the fact that the game will be ultra conservative the Best Team will win.
