Pele Predicts Brazil And Spain For Possible World Cup Glory
As reported by the Daily Mirror, Brazilian footballing legend Pele has expressed his belief that Brazil and Spain are the favourites to win the World Cup, although Pele also spoke of his hope for an African finalist.
"Spain and Brazil have the best teams, but it is difficult to point to a specific team as a favourite," said the former No. 10. "I would love to see Brazil playing one of the African teams in the final. I have good knowledge of Africa and have no doubts that it will be a great World Cup this summer. It will be a good tournament, well organised and very exciting."
As for his home country's chances, Pele admitted that Brazil will have to work hard.
"Brazil will have to be at their best to win the World Cup this summer. It will be hard, but they can do it." Among others, Pele also picked England as a potential candidate, citing Fabio Capello's ability as a great coach and labelling the England squad as one with "good players, Wayne Rooney being the most dangerous".

Well, from all indications, predictions will always be Brazil to win the cup. But Pele got it wrong with Spain because from all indication, it will take a miracle for Spain to even reach the semis.

Well, no team that has ever been in Pele's prediction has won the World Cup, so I guess no Brazil, no Spain.

I was just about to say that, it's like George bush campaigning for a candidate; you know that candidate is toast automatically. So we now know that Brazil and Spain are out of contention.

Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if Germany beats Spain.
it also was surprising for many that Germany beat England and especially Argentina in such an impressing fashion.
Germany has the perfect game plane for each game and opponent and the individual skill too nowdays and I now believe no team is prepared and ready for that.
Neither Spain nor Holland!
This german team might just go all the way.
