These 2 matches are the hardest for me to predict of all the previous matches...

Final:
Argentina-Germany: 3-2 GO FOR BROKE!

Semi-final:
Brazil-Netherlands: 1-0

I think Brazil still has something to prove, while the Netherlands doesn't really care about 3rd place.

Germany-Argentina: 2-1. Ger. wins.

Question: can I vote for Argentina in the match prediction and still have Germany in the main winner prediction ?

Brazil - Netherlands: 1 - 3
Germany - Argentina: 2 - 0

Brazil - Netherlands: 0 - 5

Ouch, if that happens it will be very painful to watch... EDIT: And if Argentina should win the final, it would be extra painful for me to watch this entry :

Yes I am. But I want to sleep that night... I'm dead serious :)
No party please. I've had enough of the 2 previous games of Argentina. Almost impossible to go out and buy food...
Go Germany!

I definitely had a lot of fun! I know DennisN had a lot of fun too
Thanks micromass for the massive effort you put into the league! You will have a lot of free time now

Is it possible to have the statistics for the predictions ? And if possible, the ones had the deadlines not been considered.

Thank you Götzilla!

I just wonder one thing, since I don't know much about the rules of football. At minute 57 Neuer clattered Higuain in the goal keeper zone, did that deserve a penalty like the Argentinian people are claiming?
I doubt it because Neuer played the ball (and removed it) while Higuain didn't even touch the ball.

I think it was a foul. Although he got the ball, he clearly leapt into Higuain - if Neuer was an outfield player it would certainly have been given against him, but goalies get too much protection.

Thanks for running the competition, micro. I shall come back fighting in two years ;)

Thank you! And thanks to everyone for making this into a very fun and addictive thread!
I definitely had a lot of fun! It is more than a month since this thread started, a long game! I think it was exciting even until the end.

And a special, big thanks to micromass for his huge effort in managing the contest and the thread, great work!

Same here. It was really interesting once I decided to start playing. I've already set up a reminder to play again 4 years from now.
