Definitely lots of coverage, especially Löw and Klinsmann facing against each other (Germany versus USA). They used to be manager (Klinsmann) and assistant manager (Löw) for Germany.

Julian Green is writing daily for a German paper.

It's one of the greatest World Cup scandals and 25 years on Chile return Wednesday to the "crime scene" that resulted in the South American country being banned from the 1994 World Cup.

Casillas makes another error and sees Spain go down 0-2.

The level of goalkeeping throughout the tournament, save for Ochoa’s performance yesterday, has been atrocious.

The Confederation Cup Final last year was the first sign that Spain was on the downhill slide.

What was the deal with those Chilean fans storming the media center?

Yes, you did. I have an arrogant Spain fan as a coworker. A left-winger—of course he cannot be a fan of his own country. I will so torture him now…

They will try to win that one. Going home with three defeats would hurt significantly more than with one victory.
