Refs have been diabolically pro Brasil all tournament.

Yep, they've had a lot go in favour of them, in particular that Penalty vs Croatia.

 

Its always better when the host nation stays in the tournament though, but i do get the feeling that "the powers" really do want a Brazil win in the final.

 

Looking forward to the Semis now; each promises to be a cracker.

 

I still stand that this is by far the best World Cup i've seen; its been fantastic

The conspiracy theorist in me can't help but think that FIFA will have done everything in their power to get a Brazil vs Argentina final.

Hope the Germans and the Dutch spoil the party.

Worth pointing out that the only hosts to get to a final in 26 years are the French. The World Cup final doesn't need the hosts in it, the World Cup as a whole however, does seem to need the hosts to get quite far though. Can see the Germans winning, especially against Brazil without Neymar, but also just as significantly, Thiago Silva.

 

Germany v Holland is the equivalent of Argentina v. Brazil for the nations concerned though.
