Dream final: A final contested between 2 teams that comming into the tournament were the awesome and given the setup of the tournament, would reach the final of the tournament! I dunno about ya' ll but in my opinion, a dream final would' ve been France/Argentina versus Italy! Let' s pick two randomn teams and see if they matched up to the definition of a DREAM FINAL...I dunno let me think now, right of the top of my head...ahm...lets select Brazil and Germany!
On course for the final: yes, but then again so were a whole host of others
Comming in they were not awesome: OH NO this is bad...the posibility of a dream final is fading......faded!
If you said at the start of the finals, that a dream would be between a certain pair of teams, those 2 would most certainly not be GERMANY or BRAZIL !
Look at it this way:
What is a dream final??
Two good teams playing each other? I take it that's what you are thinking. In Fact, that's what we all think!!
But, the difference, you go by what you hear, not by what you see! FRANCE ARGENTINA and ITALY certainly did not impress me at this World Cup. The only thing that impressed me was the Media and how they were raving on about how good these 3 teams are! They are not that good, that's why they didn't go all the way! 2 of these teams left after only 3 games! Another, after only 4!
How can you call a FRANCE/ARGENTINA/ITALY final a DREAM FINAL?? You certainly could before the WC started, but now?? I mean come-on! None of these teams are that Fantastic, they all left early, leaving 16-8 teams BETTER than them (according to the way that the WC is run)
FRANCE/ARGENTINA/ITALY It would be like a MID-LADDER clash between Blackburn and Southampton!
(Actually it would be better than that, but you get my point)
They might have been good in their qualifying games, but so what, its the WC that counts most! If you dominate qualifying and do absolutely Carlos in the WC, what are you remembered for???
It might not have been the DREAM final when the World Cup started, and for some it might not even be the dream final now, But what would be? Most of the good teams were eliminated early, by "LOWER" class teams. You have to accept that the rest of the World is GETTING BETTER and CATCHING UP with the Europeans and the South Americans! What might have been your dream final before the World Cup would have to have changed in one way, especially with the upsets that this WC has provided!
Think about it.......
