Thinking about who I want to see in the semis.
Looking at the 4 Quarter-finals matches, BRA-NED and GER-ARG can make a great semi final line up on their own, URU-GHA and ESP-PAR are less marquee matchups but as it stands we are in store for four footballing epics as long as FIFA don't start burglarizing teams, again.

Who do I want in the semis?
The prospect of Spain vs Argentina is too mouthwatering to ignore but on the other hand I don't like what happened in the Mexico match so I'm forced to support Germany in that match, although the prospect of ESP-ARG in the semis is to good to ignore. I don't know, If Argentina win the first game then I want Spain to challenge them in the next round, but if Germany win a Spanish victory would set up a repeat of the Euro 08 final which is great in itself but I like the way Paraguay have played so I might support them against Spain. I dunno.
PAR-ARG also would make a good game but it seems highly unlikely to me at the moment, also it wouldn't be as good as ARG-ESP or ESP-GER. I guess I can't really decide.

Same thing with the possible BRA-URU semi final matchup, it seems unlikely because even though it's possible to have 4 south american teams in the semis I think that some of them aren't going to make it. URU and PAR are the likely ones to miss out but judging by the way they have been playing anything is possible.

Holland have a good chance with this almost being a home fixture for them in South Africa so if they can't beat Brazil now, they never will.

I guess for the footballing neutrals and for the drama effect I would like to see... .... ...

I will have to watch the Quarter-finals first in order to form an opinion, I just can't decide right now because all of the teams would make a great and exciting semi final line up. I guess that all I can say with some certainty is that the least possible semi final line up would have to be...

BRA-URU and ARG-PAR

... that would make it 4 south american teams and it would make history.

We'll see which ones make it and which don't, but I would like to see a BRA-GHA semi for footballing reasons, although NED-URU would be an instant classic.

Whoever wins, let's just hope we see more of football for a change.
