Poo: are you happy with Robben's goal?

[alanrotoi]

That graphic jajaja

[Usrin]

CTG, your diagram is not up-to-date! Spain as the 2nd best at soccer? 

Btw, Hungary would be somewhere outside of the upper left corner of this figure. 

[alanrotoi]

Nope, sorry, that fake is only for World Cup teams

Today (although my predictions became quite crappy in the last few days):

Costa Rica - England: the land of ugly queens and kidney pudding (what a disgusting meal!) will make the group result less embarrassing with a tiny victory.

Italy - Uruguay: defensive Italians, boring draw.

Greece - Ivory Coast: defensive Greeks, boring draw.

Japan - Colombia: the South Americans are simply better, they'll win by one or two goals.

Group C is interesting. Greece can still qualify simply by winning today. Ivory Coast can qualify with a draw, but will they dare to play for a draw and risk elimination by a late goal? They know they are better than Greece. Colombia might be motivated to lose so they can play Costa Rica instead of Italy in the next round, and Japan can still qualify if they win and Greece also wins but ends up with an inferior goal difference.
My predictions: victory by force for Ivory Coast and cruise victory for the Colombian B-team.

Uruguay wins -> point or points in the prediction game.
Draw or Italy wins -> happiness, because Italy is in the last 16.

I think team preferences are a lot more important than a stupid prediction game. Uruguay made me lose another point, give some extra to Akoss Poo, but at least Uruguay will be in the knockout phase, while Italy fails. GODIN FOR PRESIDENT!

[Akoss Poo a.k.a. Zorromeister]

It was predictable... the Italian football is getting weaker... look at the Italian team 8-10 years ago... full of world star players... now only a very few... Italian club teams are sucking...

And Uruguay is the 4th place team which was given a chance by the fact that Costa Rica beat Italy...

The Italian red card was not a deserved one... it's a pity for them... but the five points are in the pocket unless the result changes...

Modification: BJ have a five point game now.

The Italian red card was not a deserved one...

It was clearly a red card.

It was clearly a red card.

Congratulations on finding the only fact which you could argue on. But you are not right.

Btw check the prediction game table and bark after that.

Italy is fallen. It means more than 100 points for me. FOREVER URUGUAY AND COSTA RICA! (Ah yes, and RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGERS, RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGERS!!! )
