Third Semi Finalist

The Third Semi Finalist would be the first team qualifying for the semi final match to be played on July 7th. It would be one of the following 4 teams.

1. Argentina : This is a very tough quarter of teams with big reputation fighting it out with eachother. Argentina certainly are my favourite to move on to the Semis from this quarter. They have a very good style of quick and small perfect passes much like the other South American teams. Messi is getting into form and creating a lot of spaces for his teammates to score goals. They have reached the Knockout stage with a clean sheet winning all 3 matches in their group and would certainly want to carry on that momentum. Their match against Mexico is not gonna be a cake walk for them. Their next match would be something worth watching. Be it either the clinical Germany or England, it certainly is one of the battles to look out for.
2. Germany : Very clinical. Good physical presence. Very strong defense. Attacking and young strikers. They would come hard against the lackluster England. Klose will be back from his suspension to strengthen their forward line. Their match against England would be exciting to watch. If they reach the Quarter Finals, their match against Argentina [ hopefully ] would be a treat to watch.
3. England : Look very tired. Lack luster in their group game matches. Sneaked in to the Knockout stage through some lucky goals. But, on their day, they can certainly make the opposition pay. Ferdinand in their defense is being missed a lot. They need to improve on strengthening their defense. Rooney needs to learn from his counterpart Klose and also the likes of Ronaldo and Messi, to create spaces for others to score goals.
4. Mexico : The lesser ranked team in this quarter. Will have to fight the mighty Argentina first to move any further. It would be the biggest upset of this World Cup if they can win against Argentina. They sometimes play rough when cornered and might break the free flow passes that Argentina are used to. Would be interesting to see how much they can resist the Argentinian attack. If they move to Quarter Finals, they will certainly be hoping for the gods to be smiling for some more time on them :)
