Before the world cup I have said this World Cup is going to be VERY defensive. The reason is simple, defense wins, in every sport, and the world of soccer understands that today after Inter the best team in the world based on titles showed the world how to kill the best playing team in the world and they did it easily with perfect defense.
So far in this world cup we have seen 15 goals in 9 games. If we didn't have Germany that would be even worse. In 1998 the best World Cup I have ever seen we had 171 goals, the most EVER.
We will not see scores of 6-0, 8-1 and so on. 4-0 in VERY high to the way the teams are playing, and a World Cup without goals in just boring. Another thing is that the games that we see 0-0, 1-0 or 1-1 are bad games. There are good 0-0 are bad ones, so far we saw bad ones.
It's not all grim, Germany is playing great, South Korea and Japan are great teams, I'm sure Spain and Brazil will play well, but this isn't enough.
