The Germans are clinical, but I dont necessarily agree with the rest. Who are the Dutch really missing? Van der Vaart and Van Persie are the only ones I can think of.

Germany could say the same thing by not playing their Captain, Philip Lahm, leaving out Bastian Schweinsteiger and not playing Mario Gomez their top scorer.

But that the Dutch dont care? Theres a pretty long-standing rivalry between these two teams, if theres something the Dutch hate, its losing to Germany.

I'm not watching the Italy game, primarily because I dont care, I dont know why they've decided to zero in on Balotelli though. Interesting that they rested Luis Suarez and Digeo Forlan. They're not even on bench.
