    Pick England over Germany

    Mesut Özil


    Germany youngster Mesut Oezil has received some tragic news ahead of the upcoming World Cup clash against England on Sunday. German publication Bild broke the news that the attacking midfielder's grandmother has passed away on Friday, only two days ahead of the important match.

    Oezil's grandma was plagued by health problems and died during the night in a hospital in Turkish city Bolu. The midfielder was informed about the news in the German team's hotel in Pretoria.


    Pick England by 2 goals.

    What's a dead relative compared to the chance to avenge losses in two world wars? Take the Teutons.

    Bold prediction.
    This is the most hotly contested Rivalry in Europe.

    If it had any relevance at all, it would help Germany. Teams rally around their teammates and play better for them after tradegy. Not to mention that this Oezil kid will probably play his ass off and leave it all on the field in honor.

    Save your money on England. Put them on Germany and triple them.

    1) Books will have already adjusted to this news
    2) This may not affect his performance at all. I know I did not even cry when my grandmother died and still havn't - we wern't that close.
