Whoa! Is the World Cup throwing up some surprises or what!

Can captain Michael Ballack's [ Images ] German team win the World Cup at home?

And what about Italy's return to form against Ukraine? Have the Italians played themselves into reckoning with their 3-0 victory? Can they prove to be the dark horse?
