The world's biggest sporting event of the year, the World Cup, is rocketing towards an exciting final. Semi-finals with no Brazil [Images] or Argentina! And now an all-European final.

Who are you backing?

The Azzurri?

Or Zinedine Zidane [Images] and Thierry Henry's [Images] France [Images]?

Luis Figo's boys of Portugal?
