CAMPEONES SPAIN A!!!

Well after many weeks of hard voting, it's official - There is no one hotter than El Capitán. Iker Casillas of Spain A led his troops into battle and annihilated the Rest Of the World Team 5-0 with an average winning score of 75.8%. And winning another major trophy so close to winning Euro 08 led to more scenes of jubilation on the pitch from the Spanish boys.

So thank you all for participating in the inaugural Hottie World Cup. Iker would like to dedicate this trophy to everyone who knew that this was serious.

Stay tuned for more madness coming soon....

Semifinals!

On to the Semis!

The quarterfinals were heated! Check out the results:

Ok well…Spain A dominated Brazil 5-0

But the Germans put in a good fight despite Spain B eventually taking them down 4-1.

ROW proved just a little to strong for Le French winning 3-2

And England made a strong run against Italy B winning 4-1.


The results leave us with two very exciting semi-final matchups!

1. Spain A vs. Spain B
Countryman vs. countryman! Can the legend that is Raul take on Saint Iker and his magical profile? Will Sernando and the Davids ever be the same after facing off in direct competition?

2. ROW vs. England
In the other semifinal, the mixed conglomerate of world hotties will take on England. Roque has been dominant, but how will he stand next to a pair of Golden Balls? Only you can decide.

Voting starts on Thursday 5 March at 12.01 GMT and will close Sunday at 12:01 GMT.

Thank you again for voting and doing your part in beautifying the game. Cantona salutes you.
