What to Expect from Friday Jul, 04 2014 World Cup Matches

Friday Jul, 04 2014 World Cup Matches

Brazil Vs. Columbia

This match will see two of the stars of the world cup face each other; Rodriguez vs. Neymar. Some say the Columbian side are playing like the Brazilian sides of old. That might not be such a good thing, since the romantic samba sides did not win a world cup for 24 years (1970-1994). Brazil's style is  different these days: stronger defensively, even play long balls. Notwithstanding they have a whole nation behind them, giving the team much need impetus. It seems that the Columbians have it all to do. But it's the unpredictability of football is what makes it fun.

Prediction: Brazil 1 vs. Columbia 1

Man to watch: Neymar

France 1 Vs Germany 2 

This is a match that could be decided by penalty shoot-out. If the news from the German camp of some players sick with flu, then France might have an advantage. Both teams struggled to dispatch their quarter-final opponents. The number of close games in this world cup have shown that the gap between teams are small margins. The winner of this  match will be decided by who makes less mistakes. France will make more. 

Prediction: France 1 Vs Germany 2
