No European team will win the World Cup in South Africa

Being that the South American teams only seem to win in South America and this world cup is being played in South AFRICA your argument is therefore void isn't it.

This isn't my argument. I thought it would be interesting. Since 1962, it has interchanged between Europe and South America

My mistake lol. To be fair I never realized that this was the case....

No European team has won the World Cup outside of Europe, while South American teams have.

Brazil and Argentina have won in Central America (Mexico 1970 & 1986)

Brazil have also won in North America (USA 1994) and Asia (Japan & Korea 2002)

This years World Cup will mark the first time it's been played in the Southern Hemisphere since 1978, where Argentina won at home.

Going by these facts listed above I can safely say that no European team will win this year

Never say no in football.

Holland/Netherlands is the team I got to go with. The presence of Robben and Sneijeder will tilt it. Also there group is relativley easy, although Cameroon might present challenges. However I think they can make a serious run.

[gingeralbino]

Is there anyone at the world cup that is used to playing at high altitude? Could be a big factor.

[SirTomJones]

Italy won the last world cup and the last time they won it Argentina won it the next world cup.

I seriously think no European team will win it.

Brazil or Argentina it is.

I think Ivory Coast will put portugal in third place in the group stages.
