Imho Spain deserves the Cup, based on the way they play the game in general; ok, they played some 'average' matches on this WC, but who plays better football? I'm not saying this as a "successupporter"... I've been playing football for more than 20 years now and that 'easy tiktak' from the Spanish, keeping the ball in the own ranks before making the move is anything but simple.
BUT to be honest, it could 've been just as well Holland or Germany (or Brazil e.g. if they didn't played a louzy 30' in the 2nd half against Holland). Details made the difference (as in every topsport).
Before the tournament I thought/hoped Argentina had a (good) chance as well... but I guess my Maradona childhood nostalgia played a rol in that subjective idea (he is definitely not on the same level as a coach).
personal disappointments: Cameroon, Serbia, Argentina, Belgium (WHY WEREN'T WE THERE?! )
surprises: Germany (not the result, the way they played), Uruguay, Chili (the way they played, not the result), Japan, ...
Holland: great tournament (the result), but I rate the generation Bergkamp, Stam, Kluivert, Cocu, VD Sar, etc... (much) higher than this team.. maybe it's the attitude .. dunno
