Upsets make the world cup exciting

Upsets has played a major role in the 2010 Fifa World Cup. One of the biggest upsets of the world cup was when Serbia defeated Germany 1-0 on June 18th. France losing to Mexico 2-0 on June 17th and France losing to South Africa 2-1 on June 22nd were pretty big upsets. France and Italy, 2006 world cup's finalists, not advancing to the 2nd round in the 2010 world cup was very shocking. Brazil getting knocked out of the tournament by netherlands in the quarter-final was very upsetting and heartbreaking for the brazilian fans. Germany eliminating Argentina with a 4-0 win broke poor maradona's dreams. So those examples give people an idea of how exciting this world cup has been for people and how upsetting its been for some of the teams. Can we witness another upset in today's match, Germany vs Spain?
