Very surprised by Roma's huge beating over Shakhtar, altho it only came in the last few minutes. I know Shakhtar don't have a name in Europe yet, but they have tons of potential, i find it odd that they never go far.
Sporting's win might come as a shock to some of you, and i did predict the opposite result, but from the pre-season i knew Sporting had everything to be the surprise of the competition. When the draw put Inter and Bayern in their way I dropped the idea, but apparently Inter isn't as strong as expected, let's wait and see.
No goals in Group C it did look boring in paper. IMO all of today's results except Shakhtar and Sporting were pretty much what was expected.
As for who'll win the entire competition, it's a random lottery to bet on a single team IMO, the long knockout stage makes it too unpredictable. I'll name 5 teams then: Chelsea, Barcelona, Lyon, Real Madrid and Man Utd.
I'll update results and standings in a bit. I see some of you like it, thanks, but it's just the layout of the WC thread slightly simplified.
