    C'mon ATW. Please tell me your defense isn't the FIFA rankings.

    I fully believe that Germany might be the only team that can challenge Spain next year...but you know better than to use FIFA rankings to make your argument.

    For shame.

    FIFA-rankings are trash. But italiano, pointing out history is the same. Spain didn't win or do anything prior to EC 08 and their historical records are mediocre. Does this mean that past powerhouses should say “hey, we crushed Spain in the past, they are worse than us.“? No, because it's all about your current team, what happened in the past isn't relevant anymore.

    History and FIFA rankings are not the same, FIFA rankings are never to be taken seriously - just go look at Brazil's rank. I agree with you that history is meant to be broken but Italy beat Germany in 2012, thats as recent as you can get.

    As i said, If both teams played today Germany would be going into the game as favorites. However, I wouldnt bet against Italy.

    Agreed. Italy is always a force to be reckoned with. They play clever.

    Yes, that was amazing! Quite an exciting match, actually!

    I was wondering why they are not letting Dante play, but David Luiz isn't bad himself...
