There were plenty of surprises with some of the giants of the sport among them favorites to lift the trophy who fell by the wayside in the group stages. Ultimately our predictions did not hold up and a new champion was crowned in Stadium Australia when Spain deservedly lifted the trophy after conquering England 1-0 in the final. Nancy was there to watch it all unfold and Chris endured some very early morning starts to watch the games from the US. So what were their takeaways and tournament favorites. Take a listen and relive some of the highlights of the tournament.
