History Is Just About To Be Made

In every World Cup, something almost always happened that noted by the historian. This year’s World Cup has no exception, as two countries in the finale tonight were never win any World Cup title just yet. So yeah, whoever wins the game tonight, it’s going to be a huge achievement for them and their country.
Let’s start with Netherlands. This country was never become one of the top favorites to win, not that they aren’t good, but more like when we talk about World Cup, for some reasons we were stuck with those Spanish or Castilian speaking countries such as Brazil, Argentina, Spain, or even Italy who won the cup previously. Netherlands in the other hand was some kind of left behind. Some of the believers were of course still support them, but they are not in the top picks. Yes, they have Wesley Sneijder who was shined in Inter Milan last season, Arjen Robben who played brilliantly in Bayern Munich and adopted the title as the flying Dutchman because of how fast he was as a winger, and (hate to admit) Robin van Persie of Arsenal who could be the key of the team success tonight, but they were considered lucky to be in the final so far as the tough game that they faced so far was only the quarter final where they beat Brazil 2-1.
Spain has a different story. Since they won the Euro Cup on 2008, this team was unstoppable. They were in their zone of football comforts at the moment. Their self esteems were on the top of the world, hence their confidence in this year’s World Cup. I mean, come on…with the number one goalkeeper in the world like Iker Casillas, the best midfielders such as Iniesta, Alonzo, and Xavi who were always provide great passing to their sharp and super cute striker, David Villa, Spain was on the top of their performances so far. True that they were never scored more than 1 goal in every game they've been, but they served us so many fun games to watch. Yeah, am not ashamed to tell you guys that since my team Argentina got beat 4-0 by Germany, I banned any Gringo to be my top pick in this year’s World Cup. Despite on how I love Klaas Jan Huntelaar and how I considered him as one of the greatest players in football, but NAH…am all about La Furia Roja.
Tonight’s game is not only about the team battle for the cup, but also an individual battle between two great strikers in the world to win the top scorer title. Yeah, Sneijder and Villa are the top scorers so far which produced 5 goals each so far for their teams. My hope, of course, is on Villa’s shoulder as am all about ‘El Guaje’ and his teammates for tonight’s confrontation, but I can not lie to you guys that am actually kind of worry. I mean, the game will always be a game, so we can not close our eyes over a lucky factor that Netherlands had these whole times being. They beat Brazil, one of the greatest teams in the world which no one ever predicted. It was like a fight between David against Goliath, and David won. In other words, it’s impossible. They went their way through to the final almost without any boundaries. So yeah, will the fortune goddess stick with them tonight? Hmm, I surely hope not but there is nothing impossible so far for the Oranje team. So, do I lose my faith on Spain? Not at all. But, yeah…I will prepare myself for any unlucky circumstances.
