Group F
1. Brazil
2. Australia
3. Croatia
4. Japan
I'd say Brazil & Croatia
Group EI do hope that Italy wins in this group, because if they end second and Brazil wins in his group Italy's gonna play with Brazil in the next match :P
1. Italy
2. Czech Republic
3. U.S.A.
4. Ghana
Group FI also think we shouldn't underestimate Croatia

I hate to say that but we also shouldn't overestimate Poland. I wish them best but somehow I find it hard to believe they will leave group. IMHO Polish soccer was not as weak as it is now in the last 30 years.
Borek: please translate commentators' comments!
Poland are in an easy group. That's it. I'm looking forward to watching Smolarek playing. Ecuador have little international experience and no great player.
Poland will have extra energies from their supporters (on the other hand, I read dreadfull things about Polish hooligans).
>:( Told you to not overestimate PL
Ecuador did very well then, considering...It wasn't actually Ecuador that won the match, but Poland that didn't make anything to win it (as Borek pointed out).
Group 1 is the typical group designed for the host nation: easy and boring.Yeah, it's much better to be in a hard group, like Italy's....if you play in such a tough group it's not so boring :P :P :P
It wasn't actually Ecuador that won the match, but Poland that didn't make anything to win it (as Borek pointed out).Yeah, there were only 3 real chanches for Poland (all of them in the last 10 minutes of the mach)

They can't do worse than the USA did. Now the USA *MUST* beat Italy to have any hope of advancing.

if any1 saw the match do u reckon the camera man kept aiming at that crotian chick too much.
BTW - Did a Croatian player really end up with 3 yellow cards??Yeah - it was a pretty funny match. The player (Simonic) wanted to go out after the 2nd yellow card, bu soon he recognized that he didn't get sent off and continued to play :)
The Italy-Australia game ought to have interest with the readers on this board SmileyYes...It won't be easy for Italy, I think :P
btw my friends even though their italian says that aus gona win cause italian playing so s#*$It won´t be easy for Italy, however, Italy played a good match against Czech republic, although the match against the USA was horrible. Italy is not playing that bad though . :P Well we´ll see it on monday :)
Portugal - Netherlands => Netherlands
equador will beat england and aus will beat italy. lol :D

I'd like to make known my allegiances at this point to AAABE: Anyone At All But England! :P ;D

Why anyone but England? Do you have something against England, or are you just a supporter of the remaining 7?

He's Irish...
my mom walks the dog with Peter Crouch's mom.
It's to do with Northern Island. The British Army has occupied it for years due to the continued civil unrest between Protestent and Catholic people. They have had several referendums in NE and they always vote for a British army pressense. The ones that don't want British rule get nasty about it, even though the majority votes for the army to stay - thast's what the IRA terrorists were about.
At least this is what it's about from what I can tell - I'm sure there would be Irish people out there who could tell the story alot better than I can.
Already on other forums, they are complaining that there was never a red card today
Italy - Germany => Italy (I hope so, although it's gonna be tough for Italy... :P )
Portugal - France => Portugal
But Portugal didn't deserved to win either.Yeah, but I have to say that Ricardo (Portugal's goalkeeper) was very good.

Thus there is no open, fast, interesting game, boring tactics is what dominates.Yes, although I was very surprised by Italy: normally, they score a goal and do nothing afterwards, this time they did a bit better....
mmm....Italy won...I think that the final will be Italy - Portugal.
I think (and hope) the final will be Italy vs. France.Your thought was correct ;)
Italy does not deserve the World Cup.All hail France! All hail France! All hail France! All hail France! All hail France!
