FIFA 14’s World Cup mode predicts Germany will take it all

In addition to releasing FIFA 14’s World Cup mode on all formats, EA Sports also ran this year’s World Cup teams through its simulator to predict a big winner. Turns out, that title goes to Germany.

Germany beat Brazil 2-1 after extra time in the simulations.

Eurogamer and EA Sports gave us a written account of the final match.

“In the EA SPORTS simulation, the Final itself was an epic battle as Brazil squared off against Germany in a repeat of the 2002 World Cup Finals. The Brazilian ‘samba boys’ got off to an impressive start, overwhelming Germany with their skill, speed and free-flowing football.

Late in the match, Per Mertesacker would equalize for Germany with a towering header from a well-delivered Mesut Özil corner. Brazilian dreams of a fairytale finish were crushed in extra-time when substitute Miroslav Klose reacted first to a loose ball and scored from close range, writing himself into the history books as the FIFA World Cup’s all-time top scorer (16 goals). With the win, Germany claimed their fourth World Cup.”

Do you think FIFA 14 picked it right?
