------

Go on everyone and post your predictions.

Capo & Turi : aint that shit with Owen a fuckin blow? man, I was sure looking for some action from the wizkid, think you go far without him?

You better be right, I hate the damn french

100% agreed.

any other result would be a big surprise to me.

Germany

Argentina

Ecuador

Portugal

Italy

Switzerland

Brazil

Spain

Germany v Sweden - A shame, but Germany will win. With a goal in the last minute, like the Germans always do.

Argentina v Mexico - This Argentina is just way too strong.

England v Ecuador - Difficult, maybe Ecuador will make it.

Portugal v Netherlands - Holland is growing stronger during the tournament.

Italy v Australia - Pippo Inzaghi and Luca Toni are killers in the penalty area, they eat goals for breakfast.

Switzerland v Ukraine - Difficult, I guess Ukraine.

Brazil v Ghana - Hahaha, Brazil of course.

Spain v France - Mmm, also difficult, but I think Spain will make it.

American terminology for football is funny. "Round of 16", what a hoot. :p Just "Last 16" or "Second round" would suffice.

Every team suffers injuries so you make sure you've got adequate cover for those situations. The Owen injury proves Sven smokes crack whilst picking the squad.

it aint 'american' term....its the 'official' term....thats how Fifa call it....but of course, you could say "knockout stage" or whateva.....

you sayin he shouldnt have picked Owen in the first place?
Well you got Rooney and Crouch, but of course the big question - will he let Walcott earn his bread? Is Walcott what you call "England's new hope" ?

Well it wouldn't be said here. Ok, it's been Univerisilized. It still makes me laugh. Imagine me calling the Superbowl - the Final. It wouldn't sound right.

I had no problem with Sven picking Owen, Rooney or Crouch. But two of them were coming into the tournament injured and/or unfit. If you're only going to take four strikers, Walcott should not be picked in this situation - maybe if you take five, but not four.

Walcott should'nt be there!
Defoe,Bent or Andrew Johnson all spring to mind as being more deserving!
Sven is a tit

COME ON ENGLAND,though to the next stage 1-0,Michael carrick man of the macth he had a brilliant game

So england play Portugal agian in the next stage,Portugal beat Holland 1-0,with an amazing 4 men sent off and 16 players booked,what a game

Yeah, what a game. I hope Portugal will go trough to face Argentina in the semi-finals, what a glorious match will that be.

Start posting in Portugese then, fucker.

Germany v Sweden = Germany

Argentina v Mexico = Argentina

England v Ecuador = England

Portugal v Netherlands = Portugal

Italy v Australia = Italy

Switzerland v Ukraine = Ukraine

Brazil v Ghana = Brazil

Spain v France = France(the best)

I'm really fancying Australia to beat Italy. I'd love them to, anyway.

Italy 1 - 0 Australia

That has to be one of the most unjust endings of a game of football I've seen; far more so than a penalty shootout would have been. Can't believe it. I'm gutted.

It's referee decisions like that which seriously make me doubt humanity.

The futility of life embodied by one man. This is a terrible world to live in.

England or Portugal can only get Argentina in the final. And England are going to beat Portugal, Portugal's best player is banned (Deco, who is actually brazilian) as is Costinha, we were cheated in 04 against them, this won't happen again.

I think Francesco Totti just killed your futility.

Nice match. Italy played so very Italian. Catenaccio per l'ultimo limito.

So far i've been exactly right on my predictions with only 1 match to go.

I think Francesco Totti just killed your futility.

Nice match. Italy played so very Italian. Catenaccio per l'ultimo limito. [/b][/quote]Yeah, they did play very Italien, with that last minute dive, couldn't be more Italien.

Sweet I was right on all of the matches. I shouldove played the espn pickum game I might have won a high def tv.
