Let me say that I disagree with you and say that although the weather in the host country of this World Cup tournament are just not conducive to European countries, for African teams (if you refer to them) can not deal with technical game of Europeans relying only on physical condition. As we know most of the leagues in Europe have - recently completed and the players still have a good physical condition.
I think the team that will have a strong team spirit,that team will win the tournament (see Greece in 2004) and in my opinion that team will be Spain.
