i'm with you on this one.

as much as i want the europeans to get killed, it's too much for me to root against italy tho...

assuming croatia and france make it, Id like to see them face off.

Posted by sr126 on Jun-16-2006 23:22:

i think france will give us an encore. go home early w/out scoring a goal. maybe they are afraind of getting their jersy's dirty or something.

Already qualified teams:

Ecuador
Germany
England
Argentina
Holland
Portugal
Brazil
Spain
(8 out of 16)

So let's imagine the group stage ends now, or all 3rd games are 0-0 draws. These would be the 1/8 finals:

Ecuador - Sweden
Perhaps the crappiest game, yet still an interesting one. A solid half-upset against an almost-top European team. Sweden get to be favourites here, but not by a huge margin.

Argentina - Mexico
Not a very confortable match for the most impressive team of the group stage, even if they are favourites here.

England - Germany
Massive match with tons of history behind, big potential to become a world cup classic.

Portugal - Holland
Another great game between two similarly offensive, technical teams. I'd say Holland are very slight favourites.

Italy - Australia
Italy clearly favourites but there's also big potential for an upset. Very interesting match.

Switzerland - Ukraine
Looking a great chance for either of these two teams to be the surprise of the tournament. The swiss to win here.

Brazil - Czech Republic
Would be an absolutely kick-ass match, if the czechs play as well as in their first game. Brazil favourites but watch out.

Spain - South Korea
Great chance for a revenge for 2002. Spain would win 5-0.

It's actually looking very good, isn't it? There's a good chance we'll have atleast 3 or 4 of these games.

i'll be surprised if we play germany. at that stage anyway... i think germany will beat ecuador and we'll manage at least a draw with sweden, so will more likely be germany vs sweden, england vs ecuador

Posted by caudio on Jun-19-2006 21:20:

Go Ecuador!!! they diserve to win!!

And Mexico is not so hard, they dont have a lot to offer, I want spain to win, so they can face Brasil on the next match, i will love to see spain being crushed by Brasil....

+1... although I still think South Korea could kick Spain's arse As for Brazil against Czech Republic, I really wouldn't mind the results - it would be a great game.

i agree those matches are more likely but wouldn't be surprised at all if the scenario i talked about before happened. all it needs is for either Sweden to beat England, or Ecuador to atleast manage a draw with Germany - not too far-fetched upsets.

Vaya argentino, animando a Brasil.

Posted by caudio on Jun-19-2006 21:27:

jajajaja, the thing is that i dont like teams thinking that they are candidates, because they win only one match 4-0. Brasil will make them see reality with good southamerican football lessons, It's a pitty that Argentina can't give them those lessons....
